hey reddit!
i applied to be an ALT in Japan through Interac. for context, i’m an American citizen and i currently live there. i was born there and both of my parents are American as well, however, i was raised in Mexico. my education was almost entirely in English. i went to an English-Spanish immersion school up until 8th grade. the rest of my education was in the U.S.
i’m worried that my bilingual education might disqualify me from the visa requirements to teach English in Japan (i also mentioned it in my cover letter). did i completely screw myself over? should i give up on being an ALT for this reason?
