How does one become a english teacher in japan without any degrees? |
Travel Info i speak english, dutch, french and soon japanese, how can i become a english teacher in japan, i have no university degree or any other degree except for my highschool diploma. i heard a lot of stories already so please give me some useful information pls. and be specific!! Travel Tips One doesn't. If getting a degree is a problem, just go to a community college and major in something, work hard, finish early, and then go to Japan and enjoy a lifetime, or however long you plan to spend, there. Others buddy, i think u need some degree atleast to teach others.. But you can take tuition.. Better consult tht locality. What you need to do is apply on a Teaching Certification Program. This usually is a short course and upon finishing it, you will be granted a Teaching Certificate which in turn will give you the privilege to teach your field of specialization. I'm guessing from your username that you're from the US? You can't get a work visa to work in Japan without a company sponsoring you, and a 4-year university degree. You cannot work legally in Japan without a work visa. Some countries (including the UK, Ireland, and Australia, but not the United States) have an agreement with Japan that allow young people to enter Japan for up to a year to work. It's called the Working Holiday Visa. http://www.mofa.jp/j_info/visit/visa/03.... http://www.mofa.go.jp/j_info/visit/w_hol... You don't necessarily need a degree to teach English. You need the degree in order to get the work visa. While some schools may ask for a degree not all of them will insist on this. Your only other option is to marry a Japanese national and get a spousal visa. Sorry, to get the required work visa, you need to have completed a 4 year college degree. You could marry a Japanese citizen and be able to work on a spouse visa however so there is a chance that way as an alternate. |
