What are we looking for?

Giraffe English Wuhan is looking for passionate & enthusiastic staff to join our team of educators. At Giraffe English Wuhan, we are not only ESL teachers, but members of a supportive community made up of staff from around the world. Students at Giraffe range from 3 to 12 years old, and our curriculum revolves around creating an enriching environment. Giraffe also has many opportunities for career advancement, holds numerous events throughout the year, and is an ideal place to gain experience while living abroad.

This is more than just the opportunity to live abroad - this is the opportunity to create something, develop yourself, and gain a network of incredible like-minded people.

Who are We?

We have a staff of over 200 individuals, with jobs ranging from teaching and management to IT and videography. In addition to our amazing Chinese and Taiwanese staff, our foreign teaching department has representatives from Australia, New Zealand, the U.K., Canada, the U.S., Ireland, and South Africa. This creates a very dynamic and international working environment and fosters a sense of community that can be hard to find elsewhere.

Throughout the year, Giraffe in Wuhan hosts a number of cultural, athletic, and leisure events exclusively for members of the Giraffe team to show appreciation for all the hard work everyone puts in. There are countless ways to get involved, and even among the foreign teaching department, there are small groups that go out every week for board games like Catan, themed dinners, KTV, Movie Nights and much more!

What are we all About?

At Giraffe English Wuhan, we believe: English is a beginning; Character is forever. With this philosophy in mind, we provide a highly effective educational environment where children can develop a true passion for learning English.

What do we Offer?

Giraffe English in Wuhan believes that the most important part of teaching ESL is teaching ESL. This is why we have barely any office hours! Our work week is a 30 to a 33 hour workweek (teaching hours included!), which makes it very flexible for our teachers, and gives them a lot of time in the morning to pick-up several hobbies!
