Advice needed

Hi all :)

I'm a Maths and ICT teacher from Croatia with about 10 years of teaching experience and a Masters in Maths and ICT education. 35 years of age, male, no dependents.

The majority of my teaching has been in Croatia (primary schools, secondary schools, university level) but I did spend almost an entire school year teaching Maths in a secondary school in France (in French) and a half-term teaching Maths in a secondary school in London (in English) so I do have at least some international experience

Unfortunately I had to leave the school in London rather abruptly due to very complicated personal reasons in 2016 and now after it's all resolved I'd like to go back to teaching abroad. The country that interests me the most is Japan. After having spent two weeks there in 2015 I fell in love with it and I'd love to be able to explore even more of it.

Now, since I'm not a native English speaker (I do have IELTS C2 level) nor am I a native French speaker (I do have DELF B2 level) I'd like to know if I stand any chance at all of actually landing a teaching placement in Japan? Maths is my forte, but Programming is also one of my other strong suits.

I'm available from July 2019 if that makes any difference.

Thank you in advance for any and all advice and tips you can give me :)
