I would also include any tutoring you might have done or any experience working with children or young adults.

Well, I can tell you what to omit: fluent in Japanese.
This assest can land you a good job in Japan, where
the people are more polite and considerate, the jobs
less stressful and demanding (a more reasonable #
of daily teaching hours), the environment cleaner,
and the standard of living higher. Forget about Korea
if you can, unless you want to have more spending
power without hurting your savings and experience
the company of highly animated natives who wish to
show how hospitable and inviting Koreans can be.

Should questions come regarding your appearence or your name/surname, just say your Dad is Italien. It shouldn't bother them any, since Koreans like Italy although they know nothing about it. I know; I've a mega-Italien surname, and Koreans ask about it all the time. They think it oh-so romantic that I've an Italien father.

Good journey, Cheers,

Since working in Korea I've added that I'm very experienced with Special Ed classes.

How well does a communications degree go over? Does extensive experience working with/teaching/coaching various age levels help?
