Aspiring 2025 JET from US: questions

Good day! I will be graduating in May of 2025 and I am going to be applying for the upcoming cycle. I will be graduating with a degree in early childhood education as well as the ability to teach ESL within my state. I’ve always been considering JET as it is something that lines up with my area of interest ever since my Japanese professor introduced it as an opportunity. I have some questions that I was hoping to get some help with^

What made you choose Japan? I’ve always been curious to see answers from JETS as a lot of people listed it under things to write in your application.

What are some good resources to read and brush up my knowledge on writing a good SOP? Specific websites would really help!

And lastly, what were some steps you took to highlight your application from others? Whether it was testing for certificates or mentioning specific experiences.

Thank you so much for your help! Please also let me know if there are discords where aspiring JETs are welcome <3
