We have made the program as economical as possible. Our school does not take any payment from the interns and we have found very reasonably priced housing for the students. Monthly rent ranges from approximately 20,000 to 36,000 yen per month, not including utilities and reasonable cleaning fees. We have also managed to find housing that does not require any key money.
Ibaraki Christian University - Program Reviews
For the internship your duties are to be a teacher's assistant in English classrooms and an English tutor. You are required to host times during the school day where Japanese students can practice their English. During these times students can receive tutoring for tests and papers.
If you are looking for a cultural experience Ibaraki Christian University is an amazing place to learn about Japanese culture, old and new. Definitely a highlight in my educational experience.
