Tokyo Academics is the passion project of a constellation of teachers, researchers, and academics from around the world.

We are an organization of experts deeply passionate about helping students meet their potential and capture the opportunities of the future.
We are looking for a professional College Admissions Consultant to help students make decisions around their current high school trajectory and future college options, preparing them for the college admissions process.
We have flexible hours to fit your schedule. Part-time, in-person work arrangements are preferable, however, we also offer remote flexibility throughout the week.
