Teaching on the side is considered a job on the side of teaching. Are you looking for a side job other than teaching? Wink Rolling Eyes

Seriously, what qualifications do you have? What Japanese language ability do you have (or think that you have)? What special skills can you offer an employer? Are you willing to risk working a job outside your visa parameters? Where will you be living?

Think that you're coming to Japan to teach and don't get your hopes up too high finding other employment outside teaching until you have another skill to offer. That's being realistic.

Can you:

pull a pint?
mix a cocktail?

You're asking without providing any information to the questions I had. You want a side job but aren't willing to provide any further information other than that "darling" photo of yours. Confused I also pointed out the facts and what to expect. I'm not "upitty" Rolling Eyes in the slightest. Rolling Eyes

alright. i got yah now. the language is still coming for me. im just using home software right now to get into the language (rosetta stone) so its slow going on that front. im a cna (which is just a nice bonus) and i have great experience with business and adminstration jobs which i won't dive into great detail onto the web with. BA, double majored. I have a pretty good idea of how to handle myself. upitty was a bad word i see that now. But don't think that Im walking into japan without having some background.
