Over 60 and ready to go

[niljac]

With the last 8 years in a private US school as a HS English teacher, I would like to spend 3-5 years in an international setting. As an older teacher with great references & extensive int'l. experience (not teaching), what are my chances? I will attend UNI & ISS SF.

A number of countries have age restrictions for issuing visas. The recruiters will ask you flat out your age; at 53, I was already too old for Tanzania because their age limit is 55! If you're seen as qualified and upbeat, I don't see why you wouldn't be hired. BTW, Ecuador doesn't have that restriction.
