Jobs other than English teaching?

If you can speak it (or even if you can't) you can teach in Japan!

Jobs other than English teaching?

Postby wax » Mon Jul 17, 2006 1:26 am

I teach private lessons for 6 hours a week and its as much teaching as i want to do. I really cannot stand it.
I lost my part time job today and ive been looking for a new job for a while now, but i can only find dreaded english teaching jobs.
If anybody can point me in the direction of some other kind of job, id be gratefull. im only after a part time job for 10-20 hours a week to fill the gap of my old job.
what other choices do gaijins with shit jp skills have in tokyo???
just gaijin bars?

It depends on what skills you have. None of which you have mentioned.

There are many alternative jobs out there - but possibly not just part time, and it's true that many jobs require some Japanese. Even in bar type work.

If you have no real skills to speak of, you shouldn't be working in Japan. Seriously - I'm not saying this to be an a-hole. It's hard enough of a life for a gaijin if you have marketable skills, let alone if you have little to show to potential Japanese employers. I'd go bak to my home country and learn a trade, get a degree, anything. Japan will always be there if you really want to make it home.
