Thank you all very much for your replies. Yes, I am single and no kids. I realize that I am very late in the game for the next school of year 2013-2014. If I waited until the 2014-2015 school year, what agencies do you recommend I sign up with? ISS was recommended to me over SEARCH because I have an EU passport. Also as far as salary is concerned, if I was hired at an IS, would I have to start at the bottom of the pay scale? I have 15 years public school teaching experience.
Thanks again for your replies and honesty. I have learned so much on this forum from you all!

I have been lurking here forever!
Can you please weigh in on my chances of finding an international teaching position!
