Many people have experience in English teaching at various levels, however few realize how successful, and profitable a school can become if organized, and run well. Not everyone has the skills to open an internet consulting business in Japan, but many people DO have the skills and experience needed to open their own English school, and the relatively small capital requirements for it make this a solid option for some in Japan who is looking to start a business and become successful.

Whether you are looking to start your own school, get out of eikaiwa and into the world of private students and contracts, or are currently running an English school but would like to improve the way you run the business side of things, we have what you are looking for. Four presenters from the world of English education will talk about their experiences starting and running successful schools.
