Hello everyone..

Ive been thinking about teaching overseas english for many years...and its finally time if Im ever going to do this...any advice would be greatly apprciated...After endless research I dont know who to trust anymore online...my situation is Id like yo do this but I have a recent misdemeanor conviction for simple battery..its was bs..I took it to avoid more legalities but nonetheless..I have a conviction at 39 years old..where could I trach if any? Would I be eligible? How much would this effect getting hired? I dont want to waste my time pursuing anything I cant get into..my positives are a teaching license (which is undersanctions because of the misdemenor )..Ive taught 7 years..ese..science..and world history..plus Im a coach all at the middle school level..Im also an honorable military vet...if you guys say its possible..where do I start..who do I go with? Job placement the whole shabang...please not just links but real info if anyone can spare the time..thanks so much in advance...I want to do this so bad!
