Anyone with health conditions who successfully passed the JET?
I have controlled epilepsy and under medication. It's no longer convulsive, but I experience auras when I'm overstimulated by noise etc. It's not frequent. I can function "well" because I know when an aura is coming.
I know this condition is going to reduce my chances for the panel, so I'm planning to offset this by
"completing" the additional evaluation points:
Have a bachelor’s degree or higher in English or Education.- English Major, graduated in 2014Have a professional language teaching license and/or experience (especially in classroom setting).- No teaching license, but I do have a TESOL certificate (from my previous Japanese company)Have a general teaching experience or qualifications. (See Note 2)- I have 1 year teaching experience + 3 years of online teaching to Japanese students (again, from a Japanese company)- Have a Japanese language background (JLPT passer) and/or Japan study background. (See Note 2) - I'm currently self-studying Japanese and plan to take the JLPT next year.
Have experience traveling/living in foreign countries.- I've been to three Asian countries
I know it all boils down to the SOP and requirements, but do you think the plus points can offset the medical condition?
