Where/How can i get a teaching English Job in Japan with no degree? YOUR HELP IS APPRECIATED <3?

I do not have a degree, and I’m almost 20 years old.

Since I’m from Canada, i know i can apply for the Workers Holiday Visa.

I’ve had a couple friends who only have diplomas go teach English in Japan. They were with NOVA. NOVA is a company that is recently having some major issues, so it would be a dumb choice for me to apply there.

Any other programs such as JET ever accept applicants with only diplomas?

Yes, i know it would be much easier to just GET a degree. I LOVE to get away though and travel, and just having a 6 months – 1 year brake is something that i would love.

A 1 year brake, and you want to teach English? Hmmmm

Simply because you speak the language doesn’t mean you would be an effective teacher. Sorry, but that’s just a fact of life.You can take courses in ESL, and get some form of certification, and there are schools in Japan that will accept non-degree teachers. They don’t, of course, pay top wages.

If you can get proper certification, you can travel anywhere and earn your way around the world. It’s a great return for a relatively short investment in time.

Think about it, and good luck whichever way you decide to go.

you will desire to produce different qualifications different than language. you won’t be able to overcome jap via speaking potential of jap. additionally there are a lot of folk who’ve BA and who speaks English. In Japan, having no job after college graduation is known that the applier has no potential and this is not any longer basic even for jap. you are able to think of this is even harder for non-jap. additionally this is not any longer typical to hire the non-nationals interior Japan. Even the English instructors are recruited of their countries and that they arrive to Japan as quickly as they get the job and visa. the full-time job for non-nationals are frequently a variety of. a million. head-hunted as a president or supervisor: of direction demands qualifications and easily achievements 2. swap from section-timer to complete-timer as English instructor (yet no longer plenty opportunities) 3. have a jap considerable different or graduated jap universities wihch can supply the working visa immediately and employed interior the comparable way as jap job seekers 4. transferred to the dept workplace in Japan with the aid of fact the full-time worker of a foreign places enterprise you’re youthful and haven’t any profession (no offence!) so which you would be able to take the two 2, 3 or 4. you are able to re-connect a Jpaanese college and get a level, or initiate working as an English instructor, or get employed via a enterprise on your united states of america which have branch places of work in Japan. My suggestion is 4. to that end, your jap potential would desire to do. the two way, you want the profession at first. stable luck.
