Thank you for taking time to make this comprehensive video , like on gaijipots there are some schools recruiting directly; is it advisable to go for this options or going through recruiters. The police clearance must it be address directly to employer in Japan or addressed generally so it can be multipurpose in case of switching employment in the future.
@ZuriAfrica
2 ай бұрын
If they are offering a job directly then do it that way, it’s much better. The police clearance you can just say to apply for a job on the form they don’t really need to know specifics. And then you can send the school a certified copy don’t send the original/send the pdf certified one to them.
Thank you Zuri very informative. Do I need a TEFL certification, if yes pls suggest a website

Hello Zuri, please at one point can one do medicals and what type of medicals are required? Do we send CV for application before we are ask to submit other documents like medicals and police clearance? Thank you
@ZuriAfrica
Ай бұрын
With a medical health check up that depends on the company they will tell you what they want you to get done. And yes you need to create a CV on those websites first and one in a pdf document that will be ready to be sent to the teaching company upon request. Those other documents like you degree, police clearance are requested after they accept you for a job.
Do we have to be a native to teach English in Japan?
Hi Zuri, Please do recruiters or employers expect an international applicant to have Japanese language knowledge as a requirement for employment? If so how can one get an online lesson for basic Japanese language?

Do I bring my hard copies of my certificates to Japan?. I have a cousin who did her Bachelor's degree in education in South Africa but she is of Swaziland nationality so who verifies her certificates and how? Is it SA, Japan or Swaziland?
@ZuriAfrica
Ай бұрын
You send PDFs of these documents, please don’t give anyone your true hard certificate. You don’t have to verify anything send a copy of what they want you to send. And that’s that. I came with my actual degree to Japan too just to have it with me just in case I want to apply for a new job or something.

What are teachers doing with their homes, cars, and valuables when they accept a job overseas for years at a time? How secure are overseas jobs? That's a long way to travel when you don't really know what's going to happen to you when you arrive. How loyal are they going to be to you? There is so much at stake when one travels across the globe, so those unknowns become paramount.

Well people move here either for a few years and put their things in storage or leave it with family OR people actually move aboard and never go back home, this becomes their home which has been the case with so many people I’ve interacted with. It’s up to you what your plans are.

They take advanced diplomas too. So if you have that then you can apply. Also on the JET website there is an email attached of a person that can help you with that. Send them an email to just confirm if you can apply with the type of qualification you have before you spend money for no reason.
