Gaba tutoring and Visa

I liked the idea of tutoring in Japan, and Gaba seemedan interesting option.

But Im baffled by how to get a visa to work for them.

Im too old for a working holiday visa, so a Humanities visa is my only option. But Gaba say, that at least for the first few months, they don't sponsor Visa's.

Is there no solution?

Are the any other language schools that follow Gaba's one on one, flexible model?

Would someone like AEON sponsor a visa?

Some of the big name schools do recruit overseas and sponsor working visas for those without visas. Gaba usually wants people who already have somesort of other visa, eg Working Holiday Visa or already working in Japan.

On a short commentary be wary of Gaba, you can search the net and decide on your own. Those flexible working hours might not be the best hours to make money...

that a large school like Gaba will not sponsor you should give you an idea as to what they are like

Normally English conversation schools in Japan sponsor you for Instructor visa; but this works only if you get hired full-time. So if Gaba says they don't sponsor you, that means they expect the applicants already to have some other visa (other school-sponsored Instructor visa, Spouse of Japanese national visa, etc.), and maybe they are looking for people who don't rely on THEM for full income to support themselves.
