Also, don't talk about how you plan to innovate or revolutionaize the teaching systems already in place. Go with
"I look forward to working with and learning from my Japanese colleagues. Learning how to work with the unique group of students in each class will help me come up with lesson plans catered to meet their English needs as well as stimulate thier desire to learn."
Stuff like that.
