Hi!
I am only in grade 10, but I've been thinking a lot about what I want to do when I finish high school. I would like to teach English in Japan with Jet, but you need a college degree for that, right? I don't know what courses you would need to take to be able to teach in Japan. Incase teaching in Japan doesn't work out, I want to be a teacher here (in Canada). Is it possible to be over qualified for JET? The university I was looking at (university of Calgary) has an East Asian language studies thing.
East Asian Language Studies (EALS) | Germanic Slavic East Asian Studies
would taking this hurt or increase my chance of being accepted? Increase I would think, yeah?
Anyway, long story short, I just want to know what I need to do in order to teach English in Japan. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.
