TEFL Courses Japan
While it is easy for the uninitiated to judge Japan as a high tech, fast paced, land of structured life styles, this is far from the reality.
Efficiency and attention to detail do sit high on the Japanese cultural make up, but it is important to know that the Japanese are a friendly, fun loving people that are open to foreign cultures and eager to learn and experience languages and cultures other than their own.
Consider that Japan was a virtual closed society until 1945, after which Japan opened its doors to outside thoughts, ideas, and cultures.
The nature of the Japanese can therefore be seen as traditional, certainly, but also encompassing new ideas, thoughts, opinions and methods.
As a result of Japan's history, its people have traditional values and norms, while welcoming and embracing foreign cultures.

Our TEFL Courses in Japan are delivered in vibrant, energetic Tokyo. We have chosen Tokyo as our TEFL course location as it offers easy access from all points across the globe. It also offers the most post course opportunities teaching TEFL in Japan.
Outright, Tokyo is a city that should be experienced once in a life time. Situated on the very edge of Asia, the image and reality of Tokyo is very different. Fast paced and futuristic on the surface, yet behind the façade lies a culture nurtured without influence for hundreds of years. Curious yet knowledgeable, innocent yet experienced, the real Tokyo is a place of many contrasts.
