The degree would enable you to get a visa, and the degree in teaching in specific would help you in your chosen career. I'm not sure, but I think there are also degrees in TEFL, but I could be wrong.

Anyways, if you want to do a TEFL course on its own, I'd recommend Gap year travel, Volunteer abroad, TEFL Courses and more from i-to-i - due to computer troubles I can't load it to double-check, but it should still work and it's an accreditated company. It has a variety of classes - both online and in person - to suit the individual's needs.

Bear in mind, if you do a TEFL class a lot of employer's prefer you to have at least a 100 course, and face-to-face experience in a classroom, but - in all fairness - any certificate is better than no certificate.
i will look into that, thank you Godwine and RobinMask

would i be able to pay off student loans after college if i get a job in japan, and would i even make enough?
