thanks for the quick reply. Since the school I talked to said they didn.t accept people over 50, I.ll look up some other schools next time I.m there....You say a Tourist visa can be converted to an Ed visa. Do you know if less paperwok is needed if I started to look on a non immigrant O ? ( think thats what they are called. Ive been living a long time as a teacher here)
