What makes Enny’s Consultancy different from other training platforms?
We don’t just train — we place. Our founder is an experienced ESL tutor who actively tracks current hiring trends. This ensures our students are always job-ready, and our courses stay relevant to what companies actually want.
What is the ESL industry and why is it growing?
ESL stands for English as a Second Language, and it refers to teaching English to non-native speakers. As English remains the global language for business, education, and travel, millions of people across Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East seek to learn it creating a multi-billion-dollar industry. The rise of remote learning platforms has made it possible for Africans to teach students across the globe from home.
What countries hire online ESL teachers the most?
Top hiring countries include:
China (private platforms and tutoring apps)
South Korea and Japan (structured school partnerships)
Vietnam, Thailand, and Indonesia (expanding fast)
Brazil, Mexico, and parts of Eastern Europe
Many ESL companies based in these regions hire remote tutors globally, especially those with a TEFL certificate and strong communication skills.
How much can I earn as an online ESL tutor?
Earnings vary by experience, student level, and the platform. Generally, you can earn between $5 to $25 per hour, with some top tutors making $1000 to $2000+ monthly depending on hours worked and bonuses earned. Our training helps you stand out and qualify for the higher-paying platforms.
What are peak teaching hours in the ESL industry?
Because your students may be in Asia or Latin America, peak hours often fall in the early mornings, evenings, or weekends (depending on your time zone). This makes it a great side hustle or full-time career, especially for those who want flexibility.
Is online ESL tutoring sustainable long term?
Yes. The ESL market is expanding, not shrinking. Countries are investing more in English education, and parents are looking for one-on-one tutors rather than traditional classrooms. This creates an ongoing demand for reliable, trained, and engaging African tutors.
How do I stand out to international ESL employers?
We teach you to create a strong teaching demo video, write an effective ESL resume, and confidently present yourself in interviews. Our founder applies to platforms regularly to track what employers are looking for, so our training is always current and strategic.
Can I specialize in a specific type of ESL teaching?
Yes! There are many niches including:
Kids' Conversational English
Business English for Professionals
Test Prep (e.g., IELTS, TOEFL)
Travel or Tourism English
We help you explore these paths during training so you can find a niche that fits your strengths and personality.
Is there room to grow in the ESL field?
Absolutely. Many tutors go on to become:
Lead Instructors or Team Managers
Curriculum Developers
Online School Owners
With experience and credibility, you can even start your own ESL brand or training platform, like our founder did.
What support do I get after the course ends?
Even after you finish training, you’ll still have access to:
Resume and video review sessions
Weekly job updates and openings
Job interview prep
We’re committed to your success, not just during training but beyond.
Why should I choose Enny’s Consultancy over free ESL resources online?
Free resources are generic. We offer personalized guidance, African-specific job leads, real application support, and insider tips from someone who has cracked and dominated the ESL space herself. It’s more than a course it’s your launchpad into a global income stream.
