Japanese Teacher Assistants

Are you interested in hosting a Japanese Teacher Assistant?

I would like to thank all the families who offered to host our Japanese Teacher Assistants (JTA) throughout 2015. Pacific has been fortunate to always have a JTA in our Japanese classroom to assist in students’ learning and to share their diverse cultural knowledge and experiences with us. It is a great benefit to students studying Japanese and host families to have access to a native speaking JTA.

We are currently seeking host families for potential JTAs throughout 2016. JTAs vary in their length of stay and can be either short-term (a few weeks) or long-term (a few terms).

The successful host family will be paid $150 a week to cover costs such as food and utilities. If you believe your family could make a JTA feel like part of our community, please get an information pack and application form from Mrs Michiko Hauser (Toriyabe Sensei) in the S6 staffroom. Alternatively, please email mtoriyabe@pacluth.qld.edu.au.

Mrs Michiko Hauser, Head of 6-12 Japanese
