Teaching in Japan

Tuscaloosa Sister Cities International continues to collaborate on the initiative aimed at providing qualified young adults from Alabama with the opportunity to teach English in Japan. This program is designed for individuals who hold a college degree and have a certain level of proficiency in the Japanese language, offering them the chance to live and work abroad while immersing themselves in Japanese culture.

Selected candidates will secure paid teaching positions in schools in Japan, with salaries and housing included. This initiative not only allows participants to gain valuable teaching experience, but it also provides them with an incredible opportunity to build international connections, enhance their language skills, and deepen their understanding of Japan’s rich cultural heritage.

Tuscaloosa Sister Cities International believes that fostering global engagement is essential for personal growth and community development. By offering Alabama’s young adults the chance to teach in Japan, this program encourages cultural exchange, strengthens the bond between our regions, and opens doors for future professional and educational opportunities.

If you are an Alabama resident with a passion for teaching and a desire to experience life in Japan, this initiative may be the perfect opportunity for you. It’s an incredible way to contribute to international relations, while also gaining invaluable experiences that will last a lifetime.
