I have been working for various language schools for a few years, and I am sick and tired of it. Not of teaching, that's definitely what I want to do, but I'm tired of wasting my time and energy for companies that know nothing about running a business, or teaching languages. So for a while now I have been thinking of starting my own school. I know how to teach, I have enough skills and contacts, and I (think I) can run a business (because I learnt so much in my past jobs, about things NOT to do!).
I have been saving up as much as possible for this, talking to potential employees, etc. But every now and now, I stop and wonder, is it really worth it? In order to save for this school I have been working like crazy for the past year, and it is wearing me out. I stay motivated, but I don't think I'll be able to keep this up for too long, and once my school is in place, then there's no going back, I'll have to keep up with this crazy lifestyle.
So, maybe keeping working for shitty places is is still not so bad...?
