Who on ktt has actually done it

And would it be weird for a single male to do this

I got a plan and an idea based off this rn

doesn't @KELYE do this

No that’s not weird at all that would be dope af. Especially would be an easy way to get tf outta this country.

I’ve considered doing it as well through Jet but the only thing is I hear is very competitive but it’s def worth a try

Doubt they hire you since youre black

This is a pretty specific question

He teaches Spanish in Mexico i think

I did it for two years. majority of teachers are single males so no, not weird at all. a bit over saturated market at the moment and I'd imagine it's more complicated with covid. plus you probably won't start off in a big city like Tokyo or Osaka

i thought he taught english in australia

what do you mean you got a plan and an idea?

@dog_real

They hate niggas. Don’t do it if you’re black @op

respect the hustle

I spent a month in Japan just before covid. loved it.

I know a handful of people (black, white, and asian) who went this route.

you'll need at least conversational Japanese and a lot of networking skills tho

Meh, from my understanding Korea is supposed to be a bit worse in terms of racism compared to Japan and China, so you should be straight then

I didn't do jet and don't know much about it. I worked at an eikawa (private institute for kids after school). hours varied from 2-5 hours of classes Monday to Saturday, not including travel, which can be anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour.

I like working with kids so for the most part it was an easy job. I was the only one in the classroom so no boss breathing down my neck. coworkers were cool. pay was decent, overall a good work experience tho it all depends on where they place you

Japanese is hard. after two years I could order food and drinks and have small talk but not much more. didn't study much tho because I always planned on leaving after two years. for your plan to work you'll need to commit to serious study of Japanese. tons of foreigners want to work for other companies besides esl ones in Japan, but I've never heard of anybody get ahead without conversational (advanced) Japanese. plus you gotta know 3 alphabets to read. might as well start now, your language ability will largely determine your experience in Japan
