Hello! My name is Kirsty Lowe. I'm 22 years old and a New Zealand born Chinese. I studied Japanese since I was in high school (13-18) and since then, I've heard about a teaching job called The JET Programme, which is a Japanese English Teacher programme. I have recently graduated from Massey University, studying Design! I would like to put my design degree in use by designing/illustrating class materials for the school(s) I will be working at :)!
WHAT AM I DOING IN JAPAN
The JET Programme is a worldwide programme for people who have a strong interest in Japan and want to teach english in Japanese schools. I have been placed in Fukuoka, Kyushu (South of Japan) and will be going on August the 3rd 2013.
But this is where i need some help :(!
There are a large amount of fees that have to be paid! And as I am only working two days a week, I won't get to the amount I need in time. The start up fee is $NZ 3000. This fee is for paying for rent/ bond when I get there, furniture for the apartment, starting bills, a new cellphone and food money. This is to keep me going till the first pay; which will be at the end of August!
This photo is Fukuoka City :) This is where I will be living!
WHAT YOU WILL GET IN RETURN
I will appreciate every single dollar that you pledge :)!
I'm not asking for pledges with nothing in return! I will be sending you your gifts after my first pay in August or my second pay in September :) Thank you everyone!
