Spanish in Japan

[CED]

Hi!!

I was wandering is there is any interested on Japanese people for learning the spanish language.

I'm from Puerto Rico and it would be cool to teach spanish there since I'm in whit the Japanese culture but the sad thing is that I'm not a certified teacher .

yeah, some of them are interested. i know one guy giving italian private lessons and another one giving spanish at an 英会話 (english cafe). if you find some people who want to learn spanish you can just meet them privately and charge some money for that.
i don't know how it is for real school. i know you can study spanish at university, but you probably need to be certified for that.

You just killed my dream. I suppose it was inevitable, but I seriously thought I had something going for awhile.

I lived in Japan 3 years, but I never had any "transition" so to speak, just went back and forth from complete immersion to complete removal. About a month ago I thought up an idea that there could be a casual place where English and Japanese could merge and be encouraged, rather than the usual plunge into one language or the other. Making it cafe style, with some small orders on the menu that also crossed borders. I thought, might as well have a school attached, so one could feed the other, literally. I thought it was genius. I thought I was on to something big. As soon as I read what you wrote I realized I'm waaay too late. I did a google search with your kanji and "english cafe' and found out how late I was. Specifically this passage from one of the websites:

"A special feature of the Leafcup is that the English Cafe and English school have been combined. Of course you can choose to only use the cafe, but we also have very affordable English classes on the top floor."

MY IDEA!! DAMN THIS WORLD OF CONVENIENCE. EVERYTIME I INVENT SOMETHING SOMEBODY HAS ALREADY DONE IT!!!!!!!!

This has been happening my whole life. I'd come up with something I thought should exist, then I find out it already does.


Well, might as well tell me, please, how does my innovation fare? Do you like English Cafe's? I thought it was a good idea when I inveted it. Since this is magic land and anything I want to exist already does, pray tell me, was it a good idea?

WHERE'S THE SMILEY FOR DREAMS DASHED?????? Oh well, the same day I came up with an idea for a potentially extremely profitable website that hasn't been made yet. And I'm not going to do a google search to prove myself wrong until I've recovered.

You don't need a teaching certification. All you need is a 4 year degree.
