|
|
I'm writing my essay to submit with my application for AEON and i was wondering if anyone has tip on how to word "why i want to live and work in Japan".
I was thinking about citing some of the japanese art and cultural classes I took in university as sparking my interest. Of course, I'm going to be genuine I'm just sort of curious what they're looking to hear. |

Sounds like a good idea to me. My essay boiled down to "I like Japan" and "I like teaching", and I was accepted. I think they are looking for a real passion for the idea of teaching in Japan. As long as you can get that across then you are good. |

Yep. That's exactly what I did. |
