Kaixin Chinese Learning Hub - Box Hill, Camberwell, Glen Waverley and Kensington

Do you love working with children and bringing language to life through creativity, games, and culture?

Kaixin Chinese Learning Hub is looking for enthusiastic Mandarin teachers who can turn Saturday mornings into a fun and meaningful learning experience

About Us

We're a small private Mandarin language school that runs classes on Saturdays across our four locations in Melbourne - Box Hill, Camberwell, Glen Waverley and Kensington.

Our mission is simple: make learning Mandarin engaging, joyful, and inspiring.

At Kaixin, we believe kids learn best when they're having fun. That's why our classes are play-based and activity-driven - filled with songs, stories, games, and hands-on activities. We stay away from rote learning and focus instead on sparking curiosity and confidence in using Mandarin.

About the Role

We're seeking passionate and reliable Mandarin teachers to join our weekend teaching team. This role is casual and Saturdays only, ideal for anyone who loves teaching and enjoys working in a lively, collaborative environment.

What You'll Do

  • Deliver engaging, activity-based Mandarin lessons for young learners (typically ages 4–12)
  • Create fun, interactive experiences that immerse students in the Chinese language and culture
  • Manage classroom dynamics with warmth, energy, and confidence
  • Collaborate with fellow teachers and school management to maintain a positive, organised environment

About You

You're the kind of teacher who brings joy and energy into the classroom - someone who can turn learning into an adventure. You're creative, patient, and love seeing children light up when they understand something new.

To succeed in this role, you'll need:

  • Native proficiency in Mandarin and fluent English communication skills
  • Experience teaching in group settings (preferably with children)
  • Confidence in managing young learners and keeping them engaged
  • A positive, team-oriented attitude
  • Valid Working With Children Check (WWCC)
  • Open to university students and international students currently based in Melbourne

Why Join Us

  • Be part of a passionate, close-knit teaching community
  • Gain valuable experience in play-based language education
  • Make a real impact by helping children fall in love with Mandarin
  • Saturday-only work - perfect for students or professionals seeking part-time balance
