Review

I came into JET with a lot of teaching experience. I had worked in schools in the US before coming to Japan, taught English to Japanese college students and majored in English with a focus on Writing. Now, it is a once in a lifetime experience but JET is hiring you to be a cultural ambassador NOT a teacher. You ARE an assistant and there is nothing wrong with that. JET has pluses but most people on here are just romanticizing travel rather than being honest. JET is not hard, anyone could do it.

Would you recommend this program?
No, I would not
