Job Description:

We are one of Malaysia's premier English language centres and we are looking for another teacher to join our team of English-speaking teachers in August 2024.

We are owned and operated by an English-speaking teacher and we’ve been teaching English to people of all ages and nationalities in Malaysia since 2004.

We teach a range of courses mainly focused on preschool and primary school children. Our pre-school students are between 4 and 6 years old and develop through six levels. From there they progress to our courses for primary school students. Our primary school students are aged between 7 and 12 years old. We do have courses for teenagers but our focus is on younger learners.

We teach 5 days per week (Weds to Sun) and our classes are once per week for 2 hours with a short break in the middle. Our teachers teach a maximum of 24 hours per week.

We provide a comprehensive syllabus and course structure. Our teachers also have access to our comprehensive teaching resource library and a lot of support from colleagues and management.

Emphasis English Academy was founded by Ronan O’Carroll in 2004 to help improve the mastery of English. Having worked here and experienced first-hand the unique issues that face Malaysian learners of English, as well as having trained overseas and recognising the importance of English as a global language, Ronan saw an opportunity to go beyond the mundane and standardised teaching methods that many Malaysian tuition centers, language schools, and other institutions of learning provide. At Emphasis, our main focus has always been to help develop our students into strong and confident communicators.

Emphasis has helped thousands of students learn English. We achieve this through our own method, the Emphasis Method, which uses scientific research on language learning as well as proven language teaching methods. We make the process of learning English efficient, enjoyable, and effective. The Emphasis Method enables students to excel at their own pace to the best of their abilities. Emphasis employs passionate, english-speaking teachers who love working with kids. In addition to their passion, they all have broad international exposure and bring to the table multi-industry experience. They too embrace the Emphasis Method and put this at the core of their classroom experience

Students at Emphasis are taught by level rather than age. This enables students to focus on achieving more than their current abilities rather than what age may dictate. We want our students to achieve maximum fluency, regardless of background or previous education.

Our classes focus on developing the four skills of reading, writing, speaking & listening based on the grammar and vocabulary targets of the lesson. They are very interactive and engaging and there is a strong balance between the formal and informal in learning. This approach allows students to master skills which will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
