One of my fears is dealing with students with strong language barriers. I've never really instructed so I don't know how it is. I've heard horror stories, but I can always use some insight because some people are just dramatic.
You could just call up the schools and ask to talk to one of the current CFIs about teaching foreign students. I'm sure they would be fine with that.

US Aviation also has a large number of foreign students, Chinese being the largest group, but you can think of it as a positive experience as well. Learning to deal with many different cultures and people from all different backgrounds could be quite valuable as an airline pilot.
