Europe and the aged

I thought I should add an addendum to my last post. If you are desperate to teach in Europe, are over the age of 55 and don't have European Union Citizenship, you might be out of luck. Within the European Union, many countries are refusing to give working visas to non-European workers (applying for the first time) who are over 55.

I'm not saying it's impossible to get teaching jobs in Europe once you've turned 56, I'm saying you might not find it easy to find one, and that you may need to look at a European country that isn't a member of the EU.
