Carrllll. I love this! Practical tips and suggestions! Good luck to all aspiring JETs! Like what is shared in the vlog, once the interview is over, it’s great to let go and let God. When you’ve done your part and your best, it’s the best time to leave it to the Universe. What’s meant for us will eventually work out-whatever happens. Padayon!
100% CORRECT! May kilala nga ako sabi nya sa interview, hindi daw sya masyadong mahilig sa bata, pwera nalang daw kung mga pamangkin nya. Pero ngayon eh JET na din. Oh jevaaah! HAHAHAHAHA. What's meant for you will always find its way to you.
@@carlbensonvlogs HAHAHA Aww-but whyyy? Kids are so lovable! Would be excited if I got placed in an Elem School-pero yeah, in the interv, I think discussing properly also what level or age group you are most comfortable with helps for your placement. 🙂
Thank you very much for sharing sir. This will really help me on my application for JET 2023. I just started completing the requirements. Have a good day and all the best 😊🙏🏻 God bless!
The ending😂 thanks for this helpful video sir Carl. I'm currently a college student, planning to teach in Japan under JET program. I'll probably start studying nihongo now😁
Thank you, Carl Sensei. This video is indeed helpful. I’ll make sure to apply your tips before, during and after the interview and demo. By the way, love the outfit. It’s perfect! Haha. God bless and stay safe. 😇
Thank you for the tips! What do you mean by the self introduction in the demo lesson recording? Will something as simple as this suffice: Hello class, my name is Patty, and I will be your teacher for today! Or is it something more in-depth? If the latter, will that be counted to the 10 minutes? Are we allowed to surpass a few seconds? Thank you again! And nice ending hahaha!
Konnichiwa, Patyam! The introduction is for the panel to know basic info about you such as name, age, location, and the topic and level of students your demo teaching video is intended for. Then, magtransform kana into a pabibo teacher. Hahaha. Yes, included na sya sa 10 minutes. By the way, this is subject to change.
Hi teacher. I am about to prepare for my video demo. However, I am quite confused about some parts of the instruction. Accordingly, we will have to prepare "A short introduction of yourself and the chosen topic must not take more than 2 minutes, while the actual teaching demonstration must not take more than 8 minutes. In total, the video should be at most ten (10) minutes long" Does it mean that the video is separated into two parts and should start with a 2-minute self-intro (as in NOT a hypothetical self-intro in front of the class but rather a self-intro addressed to the "panel)? Thank you very much teacher. Looking forward to your response.
HELLO! Sorry for the late reply. Within that 10 minute video magkakasama na ang quick intro, say your (name, age, location, and current job) and my chosen topic is...intended for... students. Let's start! (Teacher Mode ON) then demo na. Ganon! 😁
Hello Sir Carl! This has been more than helpful! I have actually been shortlisted and uploaded my demo lesson already. I am just worried that my introduction is too short since I only mentioned my name, age, location, the school I graduated from, and my current job. I think my introduction just took 30 seconds. Afterward, I proceeded to do my demo. Do you think this is okay?
Yeah. That's fine. Nothing to be worried about. I think that is only for them to identify you easily. The most important thing is you nailed the demo and the interview. Sorry for the late response. All the best!
Thanks for this helpful vlog! I love the plants! Are they expensive there in Okinawa? Where did you get them? For a plantita like me content re plants in Japan is very interesting :-)
Hello Plantita Jackie. I got most of my plants from another Pinoy Plantita din dito and others were given to me as a welcome present kasi nalaman nila na mahilig ako sa plants even before pa ako nakarating ng Japan. . The giant pothos, nakuha ko lang sa gubat. hahahah.
When I did mine, I did not do it with pretend students. Yung 10 minutes na time limit kasi napakacrucial ng bawat segundo. I did not want my students' responses to impede the flow of my lesson.
Good day sir, I would like to ask for your humble opinion about learning nihongo. Is it possible for us that don’t have any background about the language to apply for the JET Program? Thank you sir for your response. God bless and more power.
I just went back over the email I received, and it does not mention requiring me to send a sample lesson. It is not mentioned under "Documents to Prepare" or "Accessing Your Interview". Does this mean that a sample plan is not required? I am an American ALT applicant. Perhaps American JET interviews are different.
First of all congratulations. The way it was done in the Philippines was different because of the pandemic in 2021. The embassy/consulate in our countrh resorted to virtual interview and recorded teaching demo but now back to the normal process. ALL THE BEST! 🙏😊✈️🇯🇵
hello, great day ^_^ thank you very much for this awsome tips! regarding the video presentation... is it ok if i record my teaching in an actual class, though it's a college lecture?

Hi Raymundo Sevilla! We communicated with JICC mostly thru email. There were times when we used either Zoom or Microsoft Teams for interview and other meetings and trainings.
Thank you so much for these tips, Carl Sensei! may tanong lng po ako sa application process. with all the given docs that you need to submit, need po ba na magsumbit ng resume, like the typical resume na sinusubmit natin dto sa pinas pag mag-aaply for a job? hahaha.. salamat, sensei..
Hello maki San. www.ph.emb-japan.go.jp/itpr_en/00_000147.html We were nor required to submit a typical Philippine resume although they asked us to fill out and submit a detailed application form that works the same way as your resume when you apply.
Thank you for this video po! Really helped with my preparation (kahit wala pang email hehe). May I know if the panel asked questions about the lesson/demo afterwards?
Di ko po masasabi kasi sa batch po namin hindi po kami binigyan ng ganon kasi pandemic po non kaya di po kami nirequire magpunta sa embassy for interview, demo and exam. Pero sabi po ng iba, basic knowledge of grammar rules etc. daw po.
Hi sir! Thank you for these tips. 😁😁 I have a question though, I hope you could help out. With regard to the demo lesson, will they assign a topic or is it based on our own discretion? Thank you in advance! 😊😊
The demo topic and level of students are solely based on your own discretion. I suggest that you go for a topic that you know very well na kahit nakapikit ka kaya mong ituro. hahaha. Choose a topic din that brings out your creativity. Make sure that what you wrote in your LP is what they will see in your teaching demo video.

Misinformation…there’s no self introduction video or demo lesson video. It’s not wise to put out such content as you don’t seem to know what’s being asked of this year. Interviews will be conducted via zoom
Hi there! There is no misinformation here. All the things I have shared in this vlog is completely based on my PERSONAL experience in 2021. I assume that you didn't know that I am a JET Programme ALT from the Philippines. Certainly, you cannot attest to what I mentioned in this video if you are from another country as your process could be different from ours. Yes, nobody knows what questions the panel will ask the applicants, so what I shared are only possible questions that they can prepare to answer before the big day. I think there is nothing wrong with that.
THERE IS a self introduction video embedded in the demo lesson video for our country, THE PHILIPPINES. And interviews are conducted via Microsoft Teams. He is trying to help us, his fellow aspiring Filipinos ALT. If the process is different from your country, then don't comment like that.
