Hajimemashite! Pleased to meet you! My name is Becky and I am an Ed.M. and Elementary Education Certification (k-5) student at Rutgers University. I am currently in my second semester and will graduate in May 2012. I am in a fifth grade classroom for my practicum training and am loving every minute of my time there! Upon graduation, I would like to travel to Japan and teach at an International school. I studied abroad in Japan for four months and have visited a total of three times. While in Japan, I fell in love with the language, culture and people, and cannot wait to return. Finding employment at an International school is not easy and requires a great deal of research. This blog will detail my experiences as I search for an International school in Japan and explore what it will be like to live abroad. This blog will also serve as a place for individuals who are interested in teaching at an International school to come and discuss their thoughts, pose questions, and provide information. This is going to be a long journey, but one that I am excited for and I am glad you will be here to share it with me!
Have you ever thought about working at an International school? I look forward to hearing from you!
どうぞうよろしくおねがいします Dozo yoroshiku onegaishimasu! So glad to have met you!
