Any advice would be appreciated.

Not at all. The only requirement for english teaching schools is a Bachelors degree which you have - you will be fine! You just will need to find an english teaching school to sponsor you if you are hoping to stay out there for more than 3 months.
Unfortunately you just miss out on eligibility for the JET programme (cannot be older than 39), so thats a bit of a bugger eh.
