I learnt a lot about how to use Linkedin as a marketing tool. The structure of the course was well planned and implemented.
However, the expectation of earning £100 plus an hour using a pre written programme seems a little far fetched. International House, the top TEFL provider in the world, who are regulated and well established, charge £80 ph!!! I also think that selling a preset programme for that price is not the way forwards. I'll be tailoring my offerings specifically to my clients needs.
This course offers value for money and is well structured but would be better without the overkill regarding possible earnings. The hard sell tactic that is taught is also distasteful.
The challenge was very practical and allowed me the next step in growing my business idea. This challenge helped me narrow my focus to building the foundation of my business. I have been missing this piece. I appreciated James' detailed teachings. He has a practical and authentic voice as the teacher of this course, helping you to focus on real steps towards success. Thank you James.
This has been an informative, educational, and enlightening experience. I learned a lot and am grateful to James for all of the knowledge he shared. It was organized and manageable and worth the time and work.
James is a very dedicated and caring teacher. He answers questions and posts often, so you can see that he is reading comments and paying attention to his students. Of course, it is up to us to do the work, to put the effort in, to make changes in ourselves in order to expand, but he teaches points in a step-by-step manner to show what is possible when we apply ourselves.
The Teacher-Entrepreneur Challenge was definitely a challenge for me, but James was extremely supportive every step of the way. The material content was highly organized and very valuable. I personally learned a great deal of new information and now have a sense of understanding digital marketing. I would highly recommend this Challenge to anyone in the ESL field as it is well worth the time and financial investment. Thank you, James!
I thoroughly enjoyed the course. I learned program development, sales and marketing techniques, among many things. The Teacher-Entrepreneur Challenge offered a great deal of information. It was challenging but doable. It was theoretical and practical, but mostly practical. Now I know how to keep improving as an entrepreneur and as a niche teacher.
I was skeptical of trying James' challenge class because of the whole 'someone is always selling something.' It is difficult to decipher online what is real and what is fluff. For context, I am an ESL teacher online in a company with thousands of other teachers. I do not already have my own business. I do not already have my own network. I started this course with no social profiles or network advocating my service. Outside of the low-paying company, no business, and no students. James course is not fluff. It is an intensive cohort of students who truly want the best for themselves learning from a teacher who wants the best for us. His entire course is slammed with actionable steps to find clients! I had multiple strategy sessions booked prior to the end of the challenge. His method works for students who take the time to commit. Without committment though, the work will not and cannot complete itself. Your cohort will become your cheerleaders. This is doable! Follow James' plans. Stick to his methods. See if it helps you! I don't think anyone can be disappointed with this challenge!
James has created a program that explains step by step what you have to do in order to be your own boss. If you do exactly what he says you will see results. The activites that we have to do are simple and not confusing. I truly recommend this program and James a mentor.
In a moment such as this, under quarantine in Italy, with a teaching contract that has been suspended, it would have been too easy to just fall into the pit of despair and uncertainty. James Liu has literally stopped me from doing that and helped me turn this moment into one of excitement and clarity. He is responsible,caring, devoted to his cause - helping us ESL teachers who have been exploited for too long while providing something people around the world really need. His strategy is logical and easy to follow and will take committed teachers a long way. This course is worth every penny! There should be more people like you in this world.
I have enjoyed every day of this course. It has kept me motivated and I have learnt so much! With the help I've received from James I think I will have a change of career , I've been trying to do this for quite a while but I didn't know which way to go. This course has given me a fresh prospective , new skills and expert knowledge in a very structured way!

I love the entrepreneur challenge because it gave me a different way of looking at business. James explained the challenge step by step, making it easy to understand. I learnt how to market the easy way. I also learnt about Niche' teaching and how to charge the students based on program teaching for specific business professionals. I leant how to become a English specialist and I'm on my way to become a successful business entrepreneur teacher.

I was a graduate from the March 2020 teacher entrepreneur challenge. I loved the challenge for giving me the confidence to start my own business and for providing the momentum to make things happen. I am still learning and growing but the tools which were provided and the logical progression which James guided me through was worth the price in its self. Really if you are at all sceptical I can confidently say go for it! I too was sceptical but within the first few days all of that was forgotten and replaced with a focus and determination to make this work for me. The group also were encouraged to share and through my cohort I have made some fantastic connections.
So to James and the Entrepreneur challenge team, I say a big thank you. You deserve all the praise that should be heaped on you.
All the best,

I highly recommend the Teacher-Entrepreneur Challenge because James was knowledgeable, thorough and encouraging. The course exceeded my expectations. Upon completion not only did I identify my niche and create my program but I had 4 strategy sessions booked. Thank you James for everything!
The Entrepreneur challenge was brilliant! I learned so much on this short course and it has strengthened my business foundation and position. A great challenge. Go for it!
I knew that the Teacher-Entrepreneur Challenge was worth the investment from the first day. James lays out actionable steps each day with straight to the point videos. I just confirmed my second strategy session for the week! The community of other motivated teachers is also extremely great. Overall, this program has really opened up my eyes to what is out there for dedicated ESL teachers!
