Episode 110 What makes a good language school

Get richer teacher with Ola Kowalska

What makes a good language school? As a former owner and manager of language schools I’ve seen a lot! And I believe there are 3 things that your language school needs to call itself a good place.

Leader – that not only puts out fires, create timetables and pay the bills. The visionary and makes space for creativity and growth

People – unfortunately the teachers that actually help the students achieve their goals are often treated like contractors with little to none benefits. I feel it is possible to create a good work environment where teachers are respected and develop their skills.

Community & impact – a good language school can help people on a larger scale by creating better programs, better customer experience and better workspace.

Hey, I’m Ola!

For the last 3 years I have been helping language teachers and coaches like you build profitable, sustainable and enjoyable businesses. I used to be a teacher, a teacher trainer and even ran my own language school in the past, but I am now focused on coaching teachers full-time (and I love it!) So far I have helped over 600 language educators from all over the world and my mission is to see the world where teachers thrive, enjoy the hell out of life and their job and have a great impact on their students lives, mainly through getting better at marketing and selling fabulous language group programs and definitely without burnout or selling their souls.
