Can you learn Japanese while doing the JET program?

Question:


Will opportunities to learn Japanese be made available when you are a JET assistant? I would consider doing more than a year if I could learn Japanese. I would like to hear from some alumni

Answer:


Hah, ignore my previous version of this answer...JET does offers correspondence courses for its members. I had forgotten all about them. But if that doesn't suit your learning style or you feel the need for an actual teacher, you will need to find a teacher or tutor in your area. Also, you need to take advantage of the opportunities for speaking that will be around you every day if you want to learn to speak (not just how to read, write, and listen).
