In today's episode, I'm sharing my very real, very subjective opinions on why most business courses out there simply don't work for language teachers and coaches. And nope, it's not just me being critical – it's based on stories I hear all the time.Here's what I talk about:The kind of business advice most teachers come across first – and why that's a problemHow the typical ‘business shark' energy pushes so many brilliant teachers awayWhy focusing on things like Instagram might not be solving the real problemThe difference between selling what people want and offering what they actually needWhy a lot of business advice is aimed at beginners – and how it plays into their fears and desperationWhat ethical, values-based marketing really looks likeIf you've ever felt like the business world wasn't made for people like us – this one's for youIf you're a more established language business owner you will want to join my new webinar where I'll be sharing how to grow your business to 6 figures without sacrificing your time or your values.

If you've ever wondered why your course isn't selling – or you're just starting out and want to avoid wasting time on offers that flop – this episode is a must-listen. I break down the art and science of building offers that don't just sound good on paper, but actually sell.Here's what we talk about in this episode:Why a strong offer is non-negotiable if you want your business to growThe power of thinking like your client, not like a teacher – because your clients don't want what you think they needHow being super specific (like ‘courses for Brazilians relocating to Australia') helps you stand out in a saturated marketThe role of market research and beta testing in shaping offers that resonateWhy listening to your current clients can be your best source of product ideas (and no, ‘I know what they need' doesn't count)The ‘chocolate vs broccoli' analogy you didn't know you needed: how to package your offer so people actually want itIf you're serious about creating a language course that becomes the backbone of your business, don't skip this one.If you're a more established language business owner you will want to join my new webinar where I'll be sharing how to grow your business to 6 figures without sacrificing your time or your values.

Fear holds many of us back from taking the next step – whether in business or life. But here's the truth: fear is normal, and it doesn't have to control you. In this episode, I dive deep into the different types of fear that can paralyze us, from fear of failure to fear of rejection and why it's important to move through fear – so you can finally start showing up for yourself and your business.Key Takeaways:Fear is not the enemy. It's just information from your body signaling uncertainty or potential threats. The key isn't to eliminate fear – it's to understand what kind of fear is holding you back and move forward anyway. Action vs. Movement. Overthinking keeps you stuck. Action is intentional and structured, but movement is what actually creates momentum. You don't need all the answers to start – you just need to move. And if fear makes you freeze? Body doubling – having someone work alongside you or just keeping your hand – can help you push through and stay accountable.Balance strategy with execution. Over-planning can be just as harmful as rushing in without direction. The best approach? Reflect, prepare, commit – and then move forward.Embracing discomfort is the key to growth. The fear of the unknown is real, but growth happens when you learn to sit with uncertainty and keep going anyway. Clarity and confidence come from movement, not from thinking about moving.Get your access to my on-demand free ‘Plan your language course worth gold' mini course and create your amazing group language program in less than 90 minutes!

Many language teachers either overestimate or underestimate how long it actually takes to launch a course. Some think it's a never-ending process, while others assume they can launch overnight. The truth lies somewhere in between. With a clear plan and marketing strategy, the process is both manageable and predictable. And it's entirely doable within a few months. In this episode I break down the key steps to launching successfully – without getting stuck in perfectionism or confusion.Here's what we cover in this episode:The different starting points for educators – whether working for a school, freelancing, or already selling group courses – and how that impacts the launch timeline.The biggest trap that slows down course creation.How to create a course outline that actually sells.How to build a marketing strategy that connects with the right audience (hint: it's not just posting random language tips on Instagram).Why a structured launch plan makes all the difference.How launching gets easier (and way more fun!) the more you do it – and how that helps you sell more.If you're ready to move from idea to launch, this episode will give you the clarity and direction you need!Get your access to my on-demand free ‘Plan your language course worth gold' mini course and create your amazing group language program in less than 90 minutes!

In this episode, I'm celebrating the incredible teachers I've worked with – clients who have built thriving, profitable businesses on their terms. They didn't follow a cookie-cutter formula or try to be like everyone else. Instead, they found their own way of doing things, leaned into their strengths and created businesses that actually work for them.Here's what you'll discover in today's episode:Niches That Stand Out (and Sell!

Building a successful language business isn't just about being a great teacher – it's about making smart decisions. Yet, so many language professionals fall into the same avoidable traps that keep them overworked and underpaid. In this episode I'm diving into the most common mistakes that may hold you back.Some of the mistakes I talk about are:Selling generic B1/B2 courses – Students don't search for a “B2 course” – they look for solutions to their specific problems. Treating your business like a hobby – If you don't take your business seriously, no one else will.Relying too much on social media – Likes and comments don't equal income. A solid sales strategy and email marketing are essential for consistent revenue.Tune in to the episode to learn about 3 more mistakes and how to break free from them.Get your access to my on-demand free ‘Plan your language course worth gold' mini course and create your amazing group language program in less than 90 minutes!

Is the CEFR scale really the best way to measure language learning success? In episode 163 of Get richer, teacher podcast I dive into why rigid language levels might not be as useful as we think – and how shifting our focus to real people and their goals can completely change the way we teach and sell language courses.Here's what I cover in this episode:Why the CEFR scale exists and where it actually matters (spoiler: not as often as you think)How real-life language goals – like running a business, feeling confident in conversations, or staying connected to a language – are more important than levels.The problem with traditional language courses that treat learning like a step-by-step process from A1 to C2.Why traditional language schools often fail to meet students' real needs.How thinking beyond language levels makes it easier to allows you to create more valuable, high-ticket offers that people are happy to pay for.If this episode resonated with you, I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Thinking about hiring a business coach to help you grow your language teaching business? With so many promises of six-figure months, passive income, and working from the beach, it's easy to get caught up in the hype. But not all coaching is equal.In episode 161 of Get reacher, teacher podcast, I break down the biggest red flags to watch out for – so you can invest wisely and avoid the traps.Key TakeawaysThe problem with income claims – Promises like “Charge $200/hour!” or “Make 10K a month!” sound great, but what's really behind them?The values misalignment trap – If a coach is all about luxury, beaches, and designer bags, but you care about freedom and stability, they might not be the right fit.The danger of blindly following someone else's path – Just because a method worked for one person doesn't mean it'll work for you.The role of a real business coach – A coach should guide you, not sell you a magic fix for your business.At the end of the day, business coaching should help you build something sustainable and aligned with your goals—not just look good on paper.

You already know one-to-one lessons aren't sustainable – it's time-consuming, exhausting, and limits your income. You've thought about group programs, maybe even launched one—but why isn't it selling like you hoped? The truth is, selling groups is a completely different game than selling one-to-ones. In this episode, I break down exactly what's going wrong and how to fix it.Key takeaways;Grouping students by level isn't enough. Just because students share a language level doesn't mean they share the same goals.Crafting a group program that actually sells is about creating a transformational journey for a specific type of client.Being afraid to focus on a smaller audience is what's keeping you stuck. The more specific your offer, the more valuable it becomes and the easier it is to sell.Selling groups requires a different approach than one-to-ones. If you're struggling, you might just need to change how you think about your offers.Get your access to my on-demand free ‘Plan your language course worth gold' mini course and create your amazing group language program in less than 90 minutes!

t's dive into the art of sales – a skill that's often misunderstood and sometimes feared, but absolutely essential for business success. Here's the truth: being great at sales isn't about pushy tactics. It's about building trust, connecting with people, and showing up authentically. If you've ever felt unsure about selling, this episode will transform how you think about it.What You'll Learn:Sales is Like a Coleslaw SaladIt's not just about one ingredient (like promotion). Trust, connection, and authority are the key ingredients that make the magic.

It's likely a skills gap you can close. Seeking feedback, asking for help, and staying open to growth are essential steps toward mastery.Sales and Influence as SkillsSales is a skill, not a personality trait.

In episode 151 of Get richer, teacher podcast we're taking a sneak peek into what it's like to work with me inside my coaching program, the Rocket Accelerator. If you've been following my content and wondering if you should join the program, then this is for you!This episode is all about the types of questions my clients bring to our sessions—questions that you might be thinking about yourself—and how these conversations open up new paths and create real change.The Practical “How-Do-I” QuestionsClients often start with straightforward questions like “How do I find clients?” or “What should I post?” These are essential building blocks, and we use them as a foundation to uncover deeper needs and build confidence.The Mindset BattlesSo many clients come to me feeling overwhelmed or stuck, asking, “Why can't I get this done?” or “How do I keep going when it feels hard?” Together, we explore what's actually behind those feelings. It's not just about finding a quick fix—it's about breaking through old habits, setting new foundations, and reconnecting with the “why” behind their business.The Prioritisation DilemmaA classic question that comes up often is, “Where should I put my energy first?” With so many demands on your time, it's easy to feel pulled in a hundred directions. In our sessions, we tackle how to prioritise in a way that drives real progress. I help my clients get clear on what truly matters so that every step they take is effective and aligned with their bigger vision.Alignment and StrategyAs we go deeper, clients start bringing questions like, “How can I make this strategy feel like me?” This is where things get exciting. It's not about following someone else's blueprint—it's about building a business that feels like it truly belongs to you. We explore how to infuse your personality, style, and values into each aspect of your business.Big Aha! MomentsSometimes clients come to me feeling unfulfilled in their niche or questioning the path they're on. It's like, “Wait, why doesn't this feel good?” And often, these are signs it's time for a pivot. We work through these moments together, and they can be game-changers, sparking new ideas, fresh directions, and so much more energy.Growing Confidence and Self-CoachingOne of my favorite things is when clients start answering their own questions during our sessions! They'll say things like, “Actually, I think I've figured it out…” and it's such a win! This is the real transformation—watching them gain the confidence to make their own decisions, tackle challenges independently, and really take ownership of their journey.The Rocket Accelerator is way more than a set of business steps. It's a space for growth, discovery, and big conversations that change the way you approach life and business. Ready to take action?

Many people feel like success is out of reach, but in reality, there's a clear path to achieving it. While everyone's situation and timeline are unique, there are key patterns and elements that consistently lead to success.In episode 147 of the Get Richer, Teacher podcast, I break down these essential elements that will help you grow and succeed in your business.Here's a sneak peek of what I cover:Passion and resilience: Choosing a profitable niche isn't enough. It's your passion that will keep you going when things get tough. Without it, burnout becomes a real risk before you even see results.Radical responsibility: As a business owner, it's your responsibility to lead and sell. The success of your business depends on how well you communicate your offer, not on the perfection of your Instagram feed.Avoiding the bottleneck: One of the biggest challenges entrepreneurs face is becoming the bottleneck in their own business. To scale, you need to automate processes and step back from doing everything yourself. But be careful not to create passive products prematurely if you don't have a large audience.Niching down: Trying to appeal to everyone can hold you back. Narrowing your focus and sharpening your message is key to scaling your business effectively.Tune in to the episode to dive deeper into building a business that's on the path to success.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.

What is your image of a salesperson? Perhaps you associate them with a pushy car salesman who uses manipulative techniques. Or maybe you picture someone who—even if they don't work as a salesperson—has a natural gift for persuasion and can always sway people to their side. We often imagine that selling is a skill you're born with. And while I do believe that a certain type of personality can make the transition to selling easier—like being extroverted, courageous, or energized by talking to people—the truth is, that's just a small part of the process. It's helpful, sure, but honestly, it's an insignificant piece of the puzzle when you truly understand what sales is all about.In Episode 141 of the Get richer, teacher podcast, I talk about three things you need to sell language courses without being manipulative.Listen to the episode to learn: How to make sure you won't have to persuade people to buy your course.

This episode is the result of discussions I had with my audience after I published episode 119 about online learning platforms. While some people shared their struggles and dreadful experiences with these platforms, others found great success and were grateful for the opportunities they provided. Despite the differing experiences, they all share a common desire: to build their own businesses and become independent. Even those who initially found success on online platforms eventually aim to transition to teaching on their own terms. So, in this episode, I'll walk you through a step-by-step plan to transition away from online platforms and build your independent teaching business.Hit the play button above to find out:Why setting a deadline is crucialMy tips for making room to focus on your businessTwo important steps in building your business foundationThe biggest mistake teachers make when starting their social media marketing Ready to go fully independent and start marketing to get your own students in 6 short weeks?

Having been both a language teacher and now a language teacher coach, I've come to realise that teachers absolutely thrive on connecting with each other. That's why I'm excited to have invited Teresa Bestwick, the co-founder of the TEFL Development Hub, to join me in discussing the importance of building and fostering communities for language teachers. In episode 120 of the Get Richer Teacher podcast, we delve into: The sense of isolation experienced by teachers, especially those engaged in freelance online work. The necessity for providing safe spaces where teachers can openly discuss their experiences and confront challenges. Three essential factors for successfully building and maintaining a thriving community. Be sure to tune in to the episode, and if you're looking to connect with fellow ELT professionals, don't hesitate to join Teresa's community on Facebook. Looking for a community to join?
