Teaching requirements

I am entertaining the idea of teaching English in China.

My concern is that I do not have a college degree.

However...

I worked as a broadcast and newspaper journalist for 20+ years. That experience included several years of hosting radio talk shows.

I work as a Senior Principle Information Developer (top writer) for a global corporation.

And I taught network protocol analysis, networking technology, and network security for about 6 years.

I also do close-up magic ;)

Will the lack of a college degree be a show stopper? Or will my working credentials cover the deficiency?

Thank you for the thread link I've read them.

It sounds as if I'd better do it now or it will be too late.

Will getting certifications be helpful? I found these online training courses offered...and of course there are many more:

And one more question:

If I prove to be a good English teacher, will compensation improve?
