Good place to work - English Lecturer Gakushuin University Employee Review

Nice people, good location in Tokyo, typical freedom accorded to instructors at Japanese universities to create and improvise within a roughly-defined educational framework.

No real advancement opportunities for most teachers. Roughly-defined educational framework means one works within a self-defined bubble, with little input or interaction regarding the overall education product.

Superb vacations - long Monthly salary above average slightly Lovely Japanese Professors to work with Foreign staff good calibre Very cordial and collegial Good students Good exchange rate with the US Dollar Right next to the subway station in a lovely part of downtown Tokyo

Little to complain about Definitely a situation where one group holds all the power and keeps it that way
