JAPAN ASSOCIATION FOR NURSING ENGLISH TEACHING

Welcome! If this is your first visit to our website, thanks for dropping by. Please stay a while and feel free to look around. And since you’re here, allow me to introduce you to JANET.

​

JANET is a volunteer organisation, founded in 2016, to help serve the needs of Japan-based teachers of English to nurses. Many of us began in this field more by chance than design, but having begun to teach nursing students, many discovered the limitations that came with the job, among them that teachers of English to nurses often operate in relative isolation and on the periphery of nursing education.

While other organisations served the needs of language teachers and medical language instructors, there was no professional community for those engaged in teaching English to nurses. JANET fills this void by providing a network and a forum through which we can support teachers and raise the quality of nursing English education.

We bring together those from disparate backgrounds (nursing, nursing education and language teaching) with a shared interest in improving language education for our students and other members of this noble profession. If that sounds like you, we hope you’ll consider joining us.
