❤You had me at TEACHING RESOURCES 🎉!!!!!

Thank you so much for this. I have my BoE interview soon. I’m also from Ohio! Small world!

3:41 thank you so much for covering this. I haven’t taught before and thought I’d just have to go wing it lol. The resources sound super helpful. Are you still teaching in Japan? You haven’t uploaded in over 3 years

What grade did you teach

Thanks for sharing! Where did you get your black pants?

My general thought about you is that I'm a bit worried about you JET guys. Most of JET guys are still young; they've just graduated from College. They can make many mistakes. I am Japanese and of course know what a usual class at high school is like. You work five hours a day. Salary looks good; it's like 3000 yen per hour. But humans need to work. Too much free time would just give depression. If your specialization is teaching, JET will add something to your life. If you want to do research on Japan, , then go to graduate school. If you just want to hang around in Japan, how about trying to work in U.S. Navy there, gettting a usual JOB? Japanese high schools, in my opinion, are not good workplaces.

do you pay for your own housing?

Not sure if you'll see this but what was the name of the hostel in Hakodate!

I love your videos Cheyenne❤️ Are you still on the JET PROGRAMME? Would love to see more content, but I also hope you're doing OK!

Nice that you didn't go all click-baity and say JET was the worst thing or the best thing ever. I clicked on your video rather than others because you seemed sensible.

Any updates?

Hi Cheyenne! I've been watching your videos, just subscribed - I love your personality! I'm applying for ALT jobs now and you've helped me master my confidence. I hope you are having fun and learning a lot in Japan :) I'd love to connect with you

Beautiful apartment.I think you have it looking lovely, and I love your little couch. Where did you but it?

your look + outfit is so cute

Honestly the most helpful one I've seen thus far....thanks

Hey Cheyenne! Thanks for this info. I'm heading to Hokkaido in July, so I wanted to know if you felt like you needed a car in Hokkaido? Or was public transport enough for you?

so would u use the same pictures for every level of student or use different pictures for say, a high schooler vs elementary students?

so like they give you so many schools?? like how do they schedule that? are they far away?

What an adorable place! I find it interesting that you've mentioned that Japan is huge on recycling and energy effieciency...makes me wonder, are Americans not conscious of that stuff back in the U.S.? Lol

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life

What do you plan on doing after the JET Programme/what are you doing now? I’m a highschool student trying to figure out what to do. I want to try JET but I’m not sure. I hope you’ll consider replying if you see this :)

i love genkans. functional.

I am part of a different program here in Japan. I can totally relate with everything you said, especially the feeling of "being a burden" because i have a hard time communicating in Japanese with students and co-workers. thanks for sharing.

I read on the programs website that teaching qualifications aren’t really necessary but holding a degree is does that mean I can get a degree in Computer science and teach in Japan for a bit before trying to get into a career that makes use of my degree? My whole idea I have is to get my degree in computer science and do the program so that I can teach in Japan and stay working there until I get a career I want but stay teaching as a back up in case that fails. Truthfully I have no idea how to go about this and I’m trying to understand as much as I can. (I will also be minoring in Japanese language/literature.)

thanks for this great video! I was wondering - when teaching are you teaching just by yourself, or with another teacher / as an assistant? How much prep do you need to do for the classes in advance, and how much spare time do you usually have? :)

How long do the self introductions usually last? I'm a super late upgrade and didn't get the self-introduction pre-departure class...

This is awesome! Such great advice! Cant wait to meet my students.

Thanks for sharing...your new subscriber

Definitely enjoyed it 🥰 loved how you told us the rental cost!

Great video! I’m contemplating if to apply. It’s so far away, new language and culture; plus heard some negative things 😩 but I feel like the experience will be nice 🥺🤷🏽‍♀️

You look so pretty and cute 😍 I love how cozy and near your apartment is 💕 Staysafe !

I’m crying because my rent is 4k I live in North Carolina I was living with my friend she left for jet program already I was finishing college so I won’t be going and I can’t afford to spend so much money I’ve been living here 3 months paying such high rent and I need the money in my savings for Japan so I’m moving in with my parent temporarily I heard u only pay from like 80 to like at most 700 dollars on Japan apartments based of what area your places in I can’t even believe how cheap they are😅

hi, I was diagnosed woth hypothyroidism few years ago, do u think it would affect my application?

Hey! Are you still in the JET program?

Beautiful room l loved it

Your apartment is really nice! How much is your rent? :o

Hopefully you will eventually see this, but I wanted ask how you deal with Japanese bugs (cockroaches, spiders, and centipedes?)

The flat helps me learn the construction process in these three rigid years. Looking forward in going to Japan again

Considering something different in my life and get away for awhile with one of the countries I always wanted to visit. My friend mentioned her wanting me to go abroad with her but she has education degree. She wants to teach. I can see myself doing it temporarily, investing, traveling, and embracing the culture. Lol btw my name is Cheyenne, also black female.

Veri beautiful

It doesn't feel right for me to take the position, I want to travel and live abroad but I don't want to teach...good luck to everyone applying

that's what a beach is

Gurlll your apartment they gave is NICEEEE alot of other videos I saw from other ALTs didnt really have nice apartments given to them and which prefecture they were placed in especially in the rural areas countryside/“inaka” so i think but I wish to become a JET later once I get a bachelors degree

I thought jet program pays your rent ?

Yo you’re place looks really cool ☺️I’m so hyped to be doing what you’re doing in 5 years. Jet program let’s go 🤘🤘🤘

I am currently in high school and I want to go into the JET program but I'm still unsure, should I go to college or university, because some places are saying you need a university degree and some are saying you can do college.

This is so cool!! Btw, can i ask how much is your rent?

I've been watching some of your videos while doing research on the JET Program and felt you looked familiar. Imagine my excitement when I realized we both graduated from Wooster! I'm a JET hopeful and will be applying in 2021, and your videos are super helpful in giving me an idea of what to expect going in. I'm so excited a fellow Scot is thriving abroad in Japan! Great content, Cheyenne. Keep it up!

hey i love your videos but i wanted to know if there are contracts like do u get the job to teach forever or do u just come to teach for a year or 2

Does anyone know if the emergency blanket, sick bags and neck pillow in the video can be found in the united states or Amazon? Or something similar in the same price range
