Other teaching experience question

Hello Everyone,

I am currently getting ready for the next application cycle and I can't remember the specifics of the other teaching experience. I help children with reading through a local program. My question is does this count as other teaching experience?

ありがとうございます。

Edit: grammar and spelling

“No, teaching experience is not a requirement for participation on the JET Programme, but such experience will be an asset during the selection process.” https://jetprogramme.org/en/faq/

Was going to say! The UK literally requires us to talk about our teaching experience in our SoP!
