I'm able to teach in japan without a bachelor
If you are going to teach in Japan, you need a university degree. You cannot get a visa to
teach in Japan without that degree, and any reputable school will not hire you.
The Working Holiday Visa is not available for
Americans. The USA doesn`t have that kind of
exchange program.
If you are really anxious to get to Japan soon,
why not think about working in a hotel or
restaurant here. Get your degree via correspondence and study Japanese A LOT now!
Once you are here opportunities will open up,
and once you have your degree more opportunities
will open up.
I don`t think my advice above will be easy though!
Far from it! But if you are dying to come here
now, then I would suggest considering it.
You can of course study at a university here too.
There are even some courses in English--many in fact now.

Working without a degree by: School owner
I'm think to receive a work permit (visa) for Japan you do indeed need to have graduated university.
There is though, depending on your country, a visa called 'working holiday' which allows young people to stay overseas and work (part time -20 hours a week) while holiday/learning etc... A lot of companies like this system, as it gives both the employer and the employee a little leave way. The only problem is if you are from the US it may not be available... Why not look into it though!
