I would prefer to teach adults rather than children... I dont care if
it's at a university.

yes I have a B.S\M.S\MBA

From what i've read NOVA, AEON and those guys have horrible hours and
work you to death. I'm just wondering if I fly to japan, say next week
as a tourist, will it be dificult to find a school to work at? Will I
be unable to begin working for 2-4 months while I wait for my work
visa?
