Can Non-Native English Speakers Teach in Japan?

Hi there,

My name is Paola and I am Italian. Currently I live in London (where I have been living for 6 years) and some time ago I decided to go to Japan for a while. Therefore, I attended and passed a CELTA course to be able to find a job there.



Now that it is finished and I am actually looking for a job from here, I was wondering whether I could get a teaching job in Japan, even though I am not from an English speaking country.
For your reference, I have a master's degree, taken in Italy.


I would appreciate it if you could give an advice.

Many thanks

Kind regards
Paola
