Working in japan: French classes or any job for frenh speakers

[pic76]

HELLO ALL, I AM NEW IN THIS FORUM AS WELL AS IN JAPAN. I AM BILINGUAL FRENCH/ENGLISH. BUT FRENCH IS MY FIRST LANGUAGE. THOUGH I COULD PRETTY WELL TEACH ENGLISH, IT IS HARD TO FIND A POSITION SINCE MOST ADS REQUIRE "NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKERS".
HERE IS MY QUESTION, DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE TO FIND FRENCH TEACHING JOB OR FRENCH SPEAKERS VACANCIES.
I HAVE 2 DEGREES (MA MANAGEMENT and MA PHILOSOPHY). YET DOORS ARE NOT OPENING UP....
YOUR HELP WOULD HUGELY BE APPRECIATED

This isn't the right subforum for your question, Japan Practical probably is. I also recommend that you stop with the excessive caps.

You might try Berlitz.
They hire teachers for many languages including French.
For non-English teachers there are no contracts, it's per lesson, but it would be a foot in the door perhaps and create a steady income to help you settle in and move onto something better.

But depending on where you are they may or not may need a French teacher.
Your best bet would be Tokyo of course.

Moved to Working in Japan.

And, yes, please refrain from typing in caps unless you need to SHOUT.

Thanks Egene for your advice. I appreciate it.

There's certain demand for French language teachers but compared with English, it is far less. And for teaching French, certain qualification might be required.
I guess that qualification/requirement are rather high and competition would be very severe...

for example:
Centre Culturel Franco-Japonais
Offre d'Emploi＞Professeur de Francais Tokyo,Osaka｜日仏文化協会
*need visa that allows you to work

ECC (Language school)
採用・求人情報 | ECCグループの企業サイト
*Need to be fluent in Japanese and to have resident status (visa)

Try these sites if you haven't.
