There is good business in tutoring English in Europe.
I make my living here in Slovakia as an English tutor
for business people.
I make good money just spending an hour or two conversing with adults who know basic English but need help with vocabulary and pronunciation.
English is now considered the international language for business.
“English is now considered the international language for business.”
- Considering this, it’s funny how the world’s most successful businessman speaks the worst English of the entire international business world.

It sure is! The Japanese are brilliant .. the government has a program to recruit new or recent college grads from English speaking countries to teach in their public schools .. starting in elementary school. It’s not intense, but by the end of high school, Japanese students have at least a working knowledge of the English language and how it is spoken by a native-English speaker.
If they are on a track that will lead eventually to their having to use English in international commerce, they would then work with someone like you who teaches privately at a higher level.
