I wuz offered a job there years ago...and wuz happy as I know how real a benefit furnished and provided housing is in Japan. Nevertheless, my wife, who is Japanese, didn't have any interest in returning...for visits, much less living. I, reluctently, turned it down.
Later, i wuz glad as I heard of how they treated teachers and their curfew policy. Thanks...but, Uh-uh...

I know this is a little unrelated to teaching, but that's actually the school I attended for my study abroad in Japan.
I can't say about teaching there specifically, but I did know a bunch of the foreign teachers and they seemed to not have anything too terrible to complain about working there- and I knew a few foreign teachers who had been there for years and years and really enjoyed it there.
The downside seems to be the bit about the on-campus apartments/living and possible curfew, but I'm not sure on the specific details of how exactly this is enforced. |

I also read up on the Union issue.... But 15 hours a week of teaching over 5 days sounds like heaven to me. |
Your choice, of course, but those seem like pretty serious union issues to me.

Like what? That covers a huge area.

Also, could anyone recommend a good intensive Japanese program for the summer months? |
I don't know of any personally, but the online Japan Times has a link to many.
