English communication consultant Project - I see that 60,000 graduates are out of work, partly cos their English is not up international work. Rather than teach kids hour after hour I would rather do something more difficult utilising the high end of my skills and experience and therefore something I can charge more money for. consultant project : assess the clients needs : what they need to know, current abilities, strong points and weakpoints and so find what they need to learn and help them plan a strategy of how to do it. That way I can set them a plan of a lot of things they can do on their own in their own free time. So although the initial consultation would be costly they could save money, by not paying for a lot of English classes. A conventional school gives you a free consultation then they recover this money by selling you a lot of lessons you might not need. They rarely tell you "oh, do this for free on your own."
