Get richer teacher with Ola Kowalska

In this episode I talk about:

• my journey from working in a language school to starting my own online language school
• Adapting to online teaching during the pandemic and helping others transition
• Feeling the need for change and embracing a new identity as a language school owner
• Importance of messy action, trust, and building a strong community
• Invitation for language school owners to seek support and guidance

Hey, I’m Ola!

For the last 3 years I have been helping language teachers and coaches like you build profitable, sustainable and enjoyable businesses. I used to be a teacher, a teacher trainer and even ran my own language school in the past, but I am now focused on coaching teachers full-time (and I love it!) So far I have helped over 600 language educators from all over the world and my mission is to see the world where teachers thrive, enjoy the hell out of life and their job and have a great impact on their students lives, mainly through getting better at marketing and selling fabulous language group programs and definitely without burnout or selling their souls.
