				Hello.  I hope you can help me -- I'm planning on receiving my CELTA next month, and I want to begin teaching abroad next year.  
 
 
I have a problem which I haven't been able to receive much help in answering:  I have a pre-existing medical  condition which requires medication (oral and intravenous) for maintenance.  Will I be able to find a job that provides comprehensive medical insurance?  Does socialized healthcare (in Europe) apply to teachers who are not citizens of the country?
 
 
I'm currently a Special Education Teacher in NYC, and I would love to live and teach abroad.  I was most interested in Japan or Poland, but I really wouldn't rule out any location.
 
 
Any advice or guidance will be very appreciated.
 
 
Thanks,
 
Karen |
