K–12 Teacher Trainer at SparkEdu Nanjing – CAD 1,450/wk + Flights
SparkEdu is recruiting experienced K–12 educators for its Fall International Training Program in Nanjing, Jiangsu, China — a short-term, full-time opportunity focused on teacher professional development and inclusive education practices, with sessions running from October through late November 2026.
Job Description
As a trainer within SparkEdu’s program, you will work directly with local K–12 English teachers to strengthen their classroom practice and language instruction skills. This is a dynamic, workshop-driven role that goes well beyond traditional teaching — you’ll be shaping how educators teach rather than working with students directly.

- Model student-centered and differentiated instructional strategies for local teachers
- Provide structured mentoring, classroom observation feedback, and coaching guidance
- Adapt training materials to suit local curriculum needs and classroom contexts
- Facilitate cross-cultural dialogue and professional knowledge exchange
- Support participants in refining their English language teaching techniques
- Collaborate closely with local school administrators to maintain and improve program quality
Two engagement options are available: a 2-week session (Oct 2 – Nov 6, 2026) or a 3-week session in late November 2026. Both are structured at 30 hours of instruction per week.
Requirements
Required:
- Native English speaker
- Bachelor’s degree in Education or a closely related field

- Minimum two years of K–12 classroom teaching experience
- Strong classroom management and lesson delivery skills
- Excellent interpersonal, communication, and intercultural competency
Preferred:
- Secondary school teaching background
- TESOL or TEFL certification
- Prior experience in teacher training, coaching, or mentoring roles
Benefits
- CAD 1,450 per week in compensation
- Round-trip flights provided
- Accommodation arranged and covered for the duration of the program

About Nanjing
Nanjing is one of China’s great historical capitals, offering a rich blend of ancient heritage and contemporary city life. From centuries-old temples and city walls to lively markets and scenic riverside parks, there is plenty to explore beyond the classroom. The city’s metro and bus network make it straightforward to get around, and the cost of living is noticeably more affordable than in Beijing or Shanghai — an added advantage for short-term visitors looking to make the most of their time in China.
