Am I too old to get a job?

Unread post by lizzielines »

I have a Trinity TESOL course booked for August but I'm starting to wonder if I will fail to get a job because of my age - I'll be 61 in August.
I have a first degree, a PGCE and years of school teaching and tutoring experience.
I'd like to teach in Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, the Middle East or Europe.
Any advice much appreciated.
