Can anyone teach people to read and write?

Question

I'm thinking of settng up a small business and become self employed.

Answer 1

yeah who is quiet and calm

Answer 2

Theoretically, yes. However, you're going to have a hard time attracting clients without some type of credentials. People are going to want to know if you have experience with ESL and/or learning disabilities since those are the two biggest groups needing help.

Answer 3

Errr call learndirect they'll give you advice on getting people to teach others to read and write.

Answer 4

I'm sure they can but if you want to be taken seriously and respected, it's probably best to get some formal qualifications. I doubt if you will get many 'customers' if they know you are not qualified or experienced.... I mean why would they spend money on you when they could spend that same money on qualified tutors?
