Teaching Jobs in Asia with Tamaki TEFL Recruitment

I had an exceptional experience working with Tomoko-san. She was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, patiently guiding me step-by-step and answering all of my questions via email. Even when I was uncertain and quiet, she made sure to reach out and ensure I was fully supported and understood everything. Her care and attention made me feel confident and never alone during my transition to life in Japan. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to support me through this journey. Thank you so much, Tomoko-san!

Tomoko embodies her name- meaning "Friendly child" in Japanese. She is genuine, friendly and passionate about what she does. It has always been a dream of mine to live in Japan, because of Tomoko this dream has become a reality. From day one she has always been reaching out and helping me in all aspects from admin to personal advice with care and confidence. The whole process from visa suppport to arriving in Japan to now settling into my placement area has been seamless. I highly recommend TTR for anyone looking to teach abroad and wants to do it an easy, clear and concise manner.

Tomoko has been and continues to be a wonderful, helpful, and attentive presence throughout this major life change. Her care, adaptability, and compassion transformed what could have been a daunting process into one that was both enjoyable and informative. Since moving to Japan, she has consistently checked in on me, showing genuine interest in my adjustment to my new environment and responsibilities—something I’ve been deeply grateful for. Her support has made the transition feel much less overwhelming and far more manageable.

During the interview process, I mentioned my desire to live somewhere with access to nature, a reasonable climate, four distinct seasons, and a vibrant arts and culture scene. Learning that I had been placed in Matsumoto City—a place that perfectly blends all of these qualities—brought me immense joy then and continues to do so now.

I commend Tomoko for her professionalism, care, dedication, and kindness. Having her guide me through this entirely new experience has been a godsend, and I would recommend her a hundred times over.

I couldn't have achieved my dream of teaching English in Japan without Tomoko's incredible support! From helping me navigate the visa process to offering invaluable tips for thriving in Japan, she was there every step of the way. Tomoko always responded promptly to my emails and continues to check in with me regularly, even now. Her genuine care and ongoing support have brought me great comfort, especially living so far from friends and family. Knowing I can rely on her if needed makes all the difference. I highly recommend working with TTR!

I found Tamaki TEFL Recruitment when I was searching for programs to let me teach abroad. It gave me a unique opportunity to teach somewhere that wasn't in a normal school. Instead, I have smaller classes and get to avoid rush hour on trains because I do not need to be in the classroom at 7am. I was also able to give my preference of where in Japan I would like to be located and they were able to try and accommodate me.

My recruiter was Tomoko and she was very helpful and kind throughout the entire process. Even after getting to Japan, she would check up to make sure everything was going okay.

I would recommend anyone looking to teach abroad to look into TTR to see if it would be right for you! It is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to go abroad because of the support they offer you both before and after you get to the foreign country.

I applied for a teaching job through TTR earlier this year. My experience with Tomoko was amazing. From the initial phone call, the interview, VISA process to my arrival in Japan, she has made everything smooth and easy for me. She explained everything about the job so well and was available to answer any questions I had during the recruitment process. I am now placed in Japan and have started my role as an English Teacher! If you’re looking to teach English in Japan I would definitely recommend working with Tomoko!!

I am very glad that I found Tomoko for help and guidance on my journey to moving abroad and teaching English! The process can be very daunting and Tomoko helped me through the whole process! There is a lot of steps and paperwork and things that can be overwhelming but Tomoko kept me on track and helped me feel far more prepared than I would’ve been if I did it myself! Her support helped me get all documents ready for my desired departure date. It’s easy to miss small things but she has good attention to detail which makes sure you don’t miss anything!
