I have been researching and researching about ESL jobs. A little background about me is that I will be graduating from my university in about a week. My degree is in Business/Marketing/Management with emphasis on Fashion Merchandising and Management. I know, nothing to do with teaching but traveling and learning different cultures has becomes a passion of mine and while at college I also studied International business. I am currently working a lot to save up to go overseas.
I was looking to head out in or around September. In the current situation I will not be heading to South Korea or China but I am looking for everywhere else and especially Japan. My boyfriend is 100% Japanese and we have been researching schools and programs. Some of these include Gaba, Westgate, Aeon, and Teach Away. I am looking for a 3-7 month teaching position to start out. I don't have any certification and I know that most of these contracts are a year period.
I was just wondering if anyone had any advice, links, ways to get started or teaching suggestions. I am 110% open and I just want to learn. Any and all comments would be wonderful...
Hope everyone is having a great day!! Cool

Six months if probably the min that you will have to commit. You might also be able to find a camp job.

Check out the Westgate Corporation in Japan. They offer three-month contracts.
