Wow! What a great video! Thank you for making this. It's not only artistically well done but highly informative. I'm looking forward to more content! Thanks Julie!
Are you an ALT for the JET program? Or do you work for a private company? I did not know if private companies let you work in public schools (I taught in South Korea and the only way you could teach in a public school was through their EPIK program which is similar to JET I believe)
Good day, I hope you are well? I am interested in teaching English in Japan. I am from South Africa. How do I go about doing an extensive course and getting the necessary certifications?
Hey Julie, wondering if you had a bachelor's degree before you got the ALT job? I am from Canada, and everything I see everywhere says I need a bachelor's degree to teach english in japan...also wondering what school and part of japan you worked in? :)
@@kejihchikato3380 hi! Please check if your degree and work experiences are qualified. Check through the agency’s website (Chesham Recruitment Agency). Thanks! :)
Hi teach! Hmmm do you plan on staying long term as a dispatch ALT? Or do you have plans on applying as a direct hire? Also based from your experiences so far…do you think is it possible to bring pets while working with your dispatch? (I am willing to find a pet friendly apartment myself) hehe. Been reading so many (bad) things about int*r*c and it’s soooo overwhelming 😢 i just recently received my placement soooo I am really looking for helpful advice. Thank you so much for your videos it’s really helpful 🤍
Hi! I stayed with Interac because my schedule and schools were nice. They have pros and cons but more cons for me. If there’s better opportunities, I’d think about it. Idk about pets stuff, sorry! Interac can be a good way for u to start life here and after a year if u dont like them, find another one. I’m with them for almost 5 years. :) Really depends on what ure looking for and what makes u happy while ure in Japan or what ur goals are. I’m in PH now for 3 weeks and I’m paid while enjoying life here but ofc I used my paid leaves for some days :)
@@julieinjapan_ Thankyou so much for your reply Miss Julie! I am glad you are enjoying your time in Japan and that you are already in your 5th year! I will keep this in mind 😊 Also miss Julie last question if you don’t mind is it true (based from what i’ve read in glassdoor) that interac can just NOT renew you and won’t give you a notice? Like 2 wks before ur contract ends that’s when they tell you na oh we won’t renew you bla bla. Or I can stay with them for as long as I want… yun kasi yung kinakatakot ko 😅 parang it happens daw with interac huhuhu.
@@taffyboyish yeah I have friends who were able to experience that. That’s true. But ok lang madami other companies and if u have exp with interac madami pwede kumuha sayo. Thats why dapat mag upskill ka din at apply2 sa iba pag ayaw mo sa Interac, improve ur Jap Language din. Pero pag tinanggal ka with short notice meron ding system ang japan na magsusuport while unemployed :) madami naman jobs here. Di ka mawawalan kapag always ka din naghahanap.
@@julieinjapan_ thank you so much again Miss Julie! So it really happens talaga. 🥺Nakakatakot pero I really need to be prepared. I really hope things will be ok for me. And again thank you sa mga videos mo suppoper helpful 😊🙏🏼 looking forward for moreee

Good day, I hope you are well? I am interested in teaching English in Japan. I am from South Africa. How do I go about doing an extensive course and getting the necessary certifications?
Hi, sorry, i dont know the qualifications if ure from SA.
How does one become a dispatch ALT ? I mostly see the JET program.
Hi! Will do a separate video about this soon :)
Hi, nice video. Is there any kind of gratuity or payment after years of service in japan as an ALT?
Thank you! For your question, I don’t know the answer, sorry!
Wow what a very informative video! More videos like this please

You are living the dream. I am working on transitioning there. Carpe Diem. Thank you.

Pwede po kaya ang 3rd year college undergraduate?
Hello! Sorry, no.
Finish your four year degree (I wonder if it’s an Education-related degree) and get an English teaching experience.
Its not an education related degree po ie, i thought po pwede ang any 4 year course?, yes po its my plan to be a english tutor online for the experience, what do you think po?
@@SVTDkTinyGF what’s your degree program?
BSBA po
