OMG-this is the first time i have encountered someone like you! I am also an English teacher, here in zamboanga city, and i dream to teach English in Japan. i have been in Claret now for two years Just wondering if you could refer me to ways on how to land a job there in Japan. (like how you landed one). i would really appreciate it. reach me-tandz268@yahoo.com. With regards to the Video...Natural lang seh ta sinti tu tristesa ali hehehe.basta chene lng tu mga students..okyah.

[leijoh14344]

hello sir, I am a teacher of english to speakers of other languages as well- I wish to know how to land a teaching job there in Japan- Pls. lemme know I really want to go there- We both have the same passion.

[KokoroBeach]

Wow man, I respect you! This is exactly what I want to do, teach English in Japan and I am a Filipino as well. I still have ´some years to go until I get my degree, but once I do im heading straight there. This inspired me.

[josephsdeleon]

Teaching is a passion to bring about positive changes in the lives of the children. Don't focus on how much we receive because God will provide, just enjoy serving the children, teach from the heart.

[KokoroBeach]

Thanks, I believe you :). I also strongly believe it's about the passion for the job, not the money. I want to do it for the experience, to feel accomplished, and to feel happy about what I do. You seem like a great example of that.

May I ask what region in Japan you are currently teaching? There's alot of snow so I am guessing in the North.

[josephsdeleon]

Thanks for that my new friend. I am in Tochigi Prefecture, about an hour from Tokyo by train. I just finished my 5th year contract in my present schools and applying for new teaching Job for April.

[junniesalud08]

Hi Joseph! I'm a 3rd year college student majoring in English. I hope I could also teach in japan someday, so how is like living in japan? I heard that it's quite expensive to live there.

[josephsdeleon]

Yes its expensive here but rewarding too. I am teaching here not because of money, its because I love teaching, its my passion. Remuneration will just come but the satisfaction comes when I see my students learning.

[dency232]

@josephsdeleon Hi. Im a filipino too, but is it true that filipinos are discriminated by some japanese people. And call us firipin-yarou?? And they think lowly of us because of poverty, darker skin? I really hope not.

[ASWANG0210]

nahihirapan lang ako jan sa Japan dahil I dont know the language, can't read kanji, pero mababait sila at may respeto in general. kaya 2 weeks is way too long for me I want to go home..

Kirin Beer, Shushi and good restaurant na lang ang consolation ko pag anjan ako. I love Shinjuku dahil they have American Channels at most people speak english.

[ASWANG0210]

Laki kita ng English teacher jan..nag pupunta din ako sa Japan for business, d2 ako base sa Silicon Valley, CA.
