Teaching is one of my favourite activities since I was young because of my mother's influence. I have taught for 14 years in a university but bnow I feel like I am do something more challenging. I am thinking of starting my own business and quit my teaching job at the age of 43. What is your advise

    First of all congratulations for your bravery in starting a new business venture. My advice to you is; before quitting your teaching job, get your... business venture started and once it picks up, then quit your teaching job to dedicate your full effort and time. This is purely as a way of ensuring you have something to fall back on and also because before businesses become successful, they always start at a loss. The hardest part of starting a business is starting it so do it scared if need be but hold onto your stable source of income first! All the best! more

    Mindig érdemes új dolgokat kipróbálni és tanulni, miközben másoknak is segítesz, esetleg már tanítod is őket arra amit már megtanultál vagy... megtapasztaltál. Gratulálok! more

    AI offers many opportunities to start your own business. First, I recommend that you join the Facebook group AI Prompts for Entrepreneurs. It's not my... group, but its quite useful and now has over 450K members! Of course, I also recommend that you spend less than $10 for my book, "AI for Entrepreneurs: A Roadmap for Success" (Available on Amazon in Paperback or cheaper with the Kindle version). If you need a link, let me know.  more

    Tell us more, what you were teaching and teach best . . . I taught natural sciences for more than 35 years. Then decided to go uphill, obtained... medicine and surgery degree. If hills like this put you off, settle for backyard online tuition. Dr. Banda  more
