Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, I did not get the opportunity to go abroad during my college years. However, please see my work for JAPN420: Maximizing Study Abroad here. After graduation, my plan to improve this MLO 5 that I did not get the chance to experience is to join the Japan Exchange and Teaching (JET) Program as an Assistant Language Teacher to teach English abroad. I have already been accepted but am awaiting my location and grade levels I will be teaching. I am looking forward to this opportunity, and plan to stay in Japan for at least two years, and most likely I will continue up to the maximum amount I am allowed to stay with the program.
