Hello, recently I was actually doing some research about teaching programs back in the states, but as I was looking through things, I came across a post in this thread with some comments mentioning student teaching in Japan.
The post was a few years old so I didn't feel quite comfortable leaving a comment, so I'm hoping making a new post will bring some info to light! I'm currently looking at the Moreland University teaching license course. Does anyone have experience with this program? I've seen mostly good things, but wondering if anyone has recent information. Also, the degree includes clinical learning, aka student teaching. How does that work if I choose the online course? I saw comments saying they did their student teaching in Japan, but how? Does Moreland find a school for me? Do I have to find one myself? How would I even find it? Is it online or in person? So many questions. I'm currently an ALT in Japan so the online course option seems super ideal and convenient. I still have some time left, as the JET program max is 5 years and I'm in my 3rd now, 4th starting in August. I plan to keep researching but I'm hoping someone here can share their experiences/insight! Anything is much appreciated.
Thank you!!
tldr; Has anyone done student teaching IN Japan for a US teaching license program, if so what was the process and how did it go for you?
