				I'm looking at teaching in Japan, and would like to know which Eikaiwa's are recommended. From the few I have looked into, ECC is up there for me.
 
 
Also, how much money is needed to start out in Japan?
 
 
Thanks! |

				You could just google to see which Eikaiwa schools have a good or bad rep.  Location matters too.  If you're one of those Tokyo or bust people, then I can't fully suggest anything as I'm in the Toboku region.
 
 
As for how much you need...maybe about $2500+ USD. |

				Where do you want to work?
 
Nichibei isn`t bad. It is in Kansai and Tokyo. |

				| I don't mind where I work. Preferably not Tokyo as it's the most expensive city. |
