About the Project
This venture focuses on creating short and long-form English learning videos for non-native speakers. The content will be distributed on platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Rednote, primarily targeting audiences outside North America.
About Me
I have 15+ years of experience teaching ESL in Asia and hold degrees in English, Computer Science, and a Master’s in Linguistics. I speak both English and Mandarin, and I’ll be handling scripting, video production, editing, and marketing (especially in Mandarin-speaking regions). If bilingual content is feasible, I will also appear in the videos. I'm based in London and Hamilton and have recently earned my degree in Computer Science from Western University.
Short-Term Goals
- Posting new videos weekly (or twice a week) to grow our audience.
- Attracting potential clients for one-on-one training or consultation sessions.
Who I'm Looking For
- Native English speaker, ideally with a degree in English, Education, or Linguistics.
- Clear communicator – able to articulate and explain concepts concisely and effectively.
- Creative thinker – brings fresh ideas to content creation.
- Comfortable on camera – a natural presenter with a relatable and engaging presence.
- Passionate about teaching and sharing knowledge – enthusiastic about education and happy to share their work for free in the public domain (this is a must at the initial stage of such ventures).
- Adaptable – able to shift between different video styles (informative, humorous, conversational, dramatic, etc.).
- Familiar with social media trends – understands how to make content appealing to an online audience.
- Located in Southern Ontario – able to shoot videos in Toronto, Burlington, Hamilton, Niagara Falls, Waterloo-Kitchener, or London.
- Aware of content guidelines – understands what works for different international audiences and complies with platform policies.
- Not reliant on immediate income – this is a long-term project, and profitability will take time.
