'Launch' is like a buzzword in the online business world. I personally love the energy of it!

There are lots of factors that come within a launch - the prep, the testing, the offer creation, the strategy, the planning... It's quite easy to get lost. But I've got your back!

If you've never launched before or if you're just getting familiar with the idea - make sure you listen to this episode to feel less overwhelmed by it and to have an understanding of some basics of launching.

And then let me know what you've launched or are planning to launch in your teaching business 👇👇👇

While recording this episode, I felt tingling in my chest and feet. It felt so good to remind myself WHY I wanted to run a teaching business in the first place.

And I so badly wanted to share it with you. This list of 10 reasons why you may want to have a teaching business is based on what YOU said, and I expanded on it, and it turned into a fantastic daydreaming session (not that it can't be true!)

Let me know which of the reasons is YOUR reason!

We all know that the ELT industry kinda sucks. And I'm not saying it to complain. Although, as a person from Poland, I'm a PRO at moaning!

I'm saying this to raise awareness, motivate, empower and kick your bum!

I've recorded this episode full of conflicting emotions - anger, enthusiasm, annoyance, and hope. So if you want to know what, in my opinion, are the 5 things that we all know about but don't talk about enough in the English Teaching world, listen to this episode.

Be prepared for a rant about native-speakerism, the worth of the industry on the global market, not seeing the bigger picture, and quick fixes that we constantly expect and give out.

Language coaching is not a new concept but has gained popularity in recent years. And no wonder. To me, it's what the ELT world always needed - giving the power back to the learner, taking learner autonomy to the next level, and equipping people with tools and independence to reach mastery by themselves.

And I've found a real shining star in this matter - Csabi Berger. Originally from Hungary, a language learner (fluent in 5 languages) himself, he shows his students every day what commitment, the right mindset, discipline, and attitude to learning can do.

This was one of the most aligned chats I've ever had with a guest because we definitely see eye to eye on many topics in regard to learning, teaching, and business too!

⭐️ ARE YOU GIVING YOUR STUDENTS ENOUGH TOOLS SO THEY CAN LEARN THE LANGUAGE INDEPENDENTLY?⭐️

Language coaching is not a new concept but certainly has gained popularity in the last few years. And no wonder. To me, it's what the ELT world always needed - giving the power back to the learner, taking learner autonomy to the next level, and equipping people with tools and independence to reach mastery by themselves.

And I've found a real shining star in this matter - Csabi @smartspeakenglish. Originally from Hungary, a language learner (fluent in 5 languages) himself he shows his students every day what commitment, the right mindset, discipline, and attitude to learning can do.

This was one of the most aligned chats I've ever had with a guest because we definitely see eye to eye on many topics in regards to learning, teaching, and business too! I personally see great potential in language coaching as a business model.

Csabi's success as a language coach and an online business owner is also due to his brilliant ability to be himself, to bring up important topics in a funny way but also to talk about what really matters. I personally admire his consistency and dedication to the cause. He admitted that his mission is to change to ELT world - and I truly believe he's on his way to do so very soon!
