Getting hired and sent to Japan through a non-Japanese company is probably the "easiest" way to get a non-English teacher job for a non-Japanese teacher, but how to do that isn't something that can be explained in three sentences.

Well, I've pretty much given up on being an English Teacher, being that I just don't have the patience to be one, plus I'm not really comfortable getting up in front of a lot of people, even if they are kids. That's why I decided to ask about computers.

Thanks very much for all the information, it's been really helpful.

EDITED: Sorry about that. I was just depressed, but something inside me just won't let me give up on the idea of going, or even moving to Japan for that matter!
