This is an awesome thread. Thanks! I got much information and many useful links off of it.
So I have a question about my personal case. I live in the US now but I am thinking about a change of like. I've been studying Japanese for 2 years now and I've been thinking of living there for a couple of years. I have been looking at IT jobs but was also wondering about the possibility of some kind of teaching position.
I am 51 years old and have a BA in Computer Science and 25 years working experience in the field of Software Engineering.
So some questions might be..
1. Will they even accept someone my age?
2. Would there be any specialty programs such as technical English (not sure what to call it). Or even directly teaching computer classes in English...
I know teaching won't pay near what I can make doing IT work but I am kinda sick of hard IT and could use a break from it for a while.
Thanks,
john
