I want the truth about teaching English in Japan.

#1
Dear people of Reviewing the Kanji,

In my home country I am studying to become an educator and I love to educate and I hope to do something very important for education one day.

One of the things I want to do (since im studying Japanese afterall) is to go to Japan and ''Teach'' be it English or some other language I master (I know 3 minus the japanese intotal)

But lets talk about teaching English specific here now .
Everything I hear about teaching English either is bad or overly commercialized as if its a job in Paradise.

When I hear something negative it goes like this :
The education system is very restrictive and they won't let you teach the way you like. They take everyone who knows a bit English who even barely has a degree (thus making the job itself a joke). The companies that offer you these jobs are evil .

On the other side you hear the ''Its a new exprience everyone should have'' Mumbo Jumbo.

So what is the truth?

And what is the way to do this right ? (getting an education job in Japan)
