I remember entering this exact search into Google and Yahoo many years ago when I decided that I wanted to come to Japan and set up my own English language school in Japan. I remember searching and searching and I found a seemingly never-ending number of websites, blogs, ads, newsletters. I would search and take [...]

Last Friday at 3:30 I was teaching a class when a young man walked into my school. I excused myself from my lesson for less than the 30 seconds it took to offer him a seat on the sofa, a cold cup of tea, and to pass him off to my staff at head office. [...]

I was impressed by what Al wrote earlier today here on the soapbox regarding effective teamwork between two independent Smiths School of English franchisees. He illustrated a beautiful example of what it means to be part of a dedicated team working together for a common purpose.
Here we have two independent Smiths School of English franchise [...]

Watching the news about the tumble of the New York Stock market and hearing all the gloomy economic news should remind us all that nothing beats good old hard work to assure your own success. You really cannot depend on rising stock or real estate prices. Too bad we all did! Who were were we [...]

I think about this question a lot. It is a very important question that we Smith’s Teacher-Owners must always keep in mind. We must strive in everything we do to make joining our schools the best choice for prospective students.

Here at Smith’s School of English we really have the opportunity to be our own boss. We have the chance to teach our students directly or hire teachers and just be the business owner and manager. I don’t know if I can speak for the other Smith’s teacher-owners but I for one have never felt [...]

I was just over at Hub Pages, reading comments to a story by fellow franchisee Derek at Tsukaguchi (スミス英会話 塚口).

Her comments about family time [...]

I wrote most of this as a comment to a story posted by Derek (from スミス英会話塚口), but I think I should share it with all of you too!

Adrian told me how he does the routines and I have been using his technique more and more with the students and though they complain a little at first, they also laugh and seem to have a good time. Having to start over from the beginning every time they make a small mistake makes [...]
