You say with the hours you have you are unable to apply for a J1. How many might that be??? As long as you do not hold a Commercial licence then you are allowed to apply for a J1 visa. May I suggest that you try more than one J1 school.....
A M1 visa for work purposes isn't worth the paper it is written on. Every school that you talk to that isn't registered for J1 will tell you how great a M1 is. Thats because they aren't registered for the J1 visa. The application process for the J1 visa is very difficult. I worked at a school for 2 years that told students it will happen SOON......
If you were born in England, Scotland or Wales and want a Green Card try marriage to a US citizen it's about that open.
