Question:
Anyone worked for this company and have some experiences to share?
Answer:
Aeon is one of the big chain of eikaiwa (English Conversation Schools) in Japan along with ECC, NOVA and GEOS. Eikaiwa mostly teach conversational English. The students usually range in age from about 2 years old in kids classes to 90 years old. Typical working hours will fall somewhere in between 10am to 9pm and the classes are usually around 45-50 mins long. I worked with one of these schools when I first arrived in Japan and it was a good starting point but moved on after awhile. Eikaiwa are not well known for looking after their employees and many people think of them in terms of fast food for English teaching.
I recommend working as an ALT (Assistant Language Teachers) in Japan. They mostly work in Elementary and Junior High School as an assistant to the main JTE (Japanese Teacher of English). This was the most rewarding experience for me and you get the chance to participate in real school life with real students.
