Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie and would love to pick your well versed brains!

My partner (who is a UK citizen) and I (a US citizen) are currently living and working in London, but we are thinking about taking a career break for 6 months to teach English in Japan.

We both have at least a BA and are in our late 20s. We're both planning to take a TOEFL course in the near future as well. The goal is to find a placement in the same city in Japan (it's ok if not the same apartment or school). We'd like to start in Jan 2010 and go till June 2010.

From the basic research I've done, I can see that most intake in Japan is in March or Sept and it seems unlikely to be placed in the same city with a partner. Is it possible to do a Jan start and go to Japan with a partner on a 6 mo contract?

Any and all advice welcome! Thanks everyone!
Jenn

No need to double post, Jenn. Answers are coming in on the Japan forum.
