Your age will likely be an issue unfortunately. A western friend of mine, age 63, was offered a directorship of a major manufacturer in China. A mega buck job, degrees up to his armpits, and loads and loads of trouble to get a work permit. He got one in Shanghai in the end.

Teaching might be different tho. You can but try.

Good luck.

ESL has an age limit, 60. So you'd probably could get a job in a small town with a salary between 6000 to 8000 RMB, but you'd have to work illegally.

Probably but you would have to lower your expectations. Like ironman says, your salary will most likely be around 6000 rmb and in a smaller city. 

 

People will treat you both as a novelty and a escaped zoo animal. Haha. 

 

But it will be an experience. I should know.

They are two old in the age of information. And the age gap ... they cannot really understand the students.

A qualified elderly who STILL wants to work and live abroad.

I mean, you'd have to be heartless not to be touched at least a little bit.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
