Hi Redditors!
I've scoured this reddit page for ages and I'm quite surprised that the pay for teaching English in Japan is being cut every year. I read that this was for people who were "unqualified" or had no teaching experience.
I'll be graduating next year with a bachelors degree with teaching english (literature – but I'll also do a CELTA/TEFL course) and teaching Mandarin Chinese as a Second Language.
I do plan to teach for at least a year before travelling. I plan to do my masters in the UK and while doing that, I hope to get up to level n2 (for japanese) and hsk 5 (for chinese).
A lot of people have said that teaching at private schools in Japan are my best bet, but are there any other alternatives?
I heard universities are an option bit apparently they don't pay well either.
Please let me know!
edit: so what I'm actually asking for after my plans is that, after 2 years of teaching while obtaining a masters degree and getting certification with TESOL, what kind of job could I possibly get? Because I know private schools and universities are my best bet (from what I've researched)
Edit 2: I would like to state my degree is a bachelors in education secondary (with teaching areas of english and Chinese), therefore post graduation, I'll be a fully licenced teacher in Australia
