    Prof Alan, have you thought about starting up the same business in Phil?

    How much it will cost doing the business you had had in UK in Phil?

    Share us your plan B?
    There must be a way out of it Prof, and you know better than me, start to narrow down the possibilities and work it, even if it might look as a desperate solution.

    An English school is not a bad idea...

    I have said this many times before.

    I am SO privileged to be a member of this forum. The responses to this post have been absolutely overwhelming! I have only met a handful of you in person but yet I feel that I know you all intimately. Hanna and I have been reading through these posts with tears in our eyes - honestly!!!

    We thank you all from the bottom of our hearts!!

    As for the setting up of a fund - once again - God bless the people who have suggested that - obviously - I am going to say 'No.' The worst thing in the world - in my opinion - is to become involved with money between friends. However, the very fact that people have suggested such a thing here - and, indeed, people who do not know Hanna and I from Adam - testifies to the love and supportiveness of the people on here.

    Keith - I hope you realise - your site generates money for you from all of your businesses - but!!!! - you have some of the greatest people in the world who post here - they are worth more than a million dollars if you see what I mean.

    I need, in order to stay afloat - to earn P30,000 a month. I am currently earning, from my maths and English teaching, P10,000.
    So, if anyone wants to help me - if you know of anyone who would like tuition in English, Maths or French up to University Entrance level - give me a shout. I am currently charging P500 per hour.

    Once again, many thanks for your good wishes - I really do love you all!!

    Al.

    Hi Prof Allan, i hope and pray that everything will be alright for you and Hanna. You may have students in English, Math etc from among the children who are in tutorial lessons studying in exclusive schools as they are the ones who mostly can afford aside from the adults who wants to learn the French language. Best of luck...

    Hi Alan, have you heard of this place? http://www.liveperson.com/ you do all your tutoring online and are paid online too. I had a friend who made decent money with it. Apologies if it isn't suitable but seemed worth mentioning.
    God Bless

    Hi Prof Allan, if at present you find it hard to maintain your internet connection then you may not be able to do the tutoring online. My advice is for you to approach parents/friends who have children in those exclusive schools. I've heard students from De la Salle, Ateneo and Brent to mention a few that mostly has tutors on some of their major subjects. Best of luck.

    Alan, this may seem like telling your grandmother to suck eggs, but have you been to the Silliman University. There were so many students there, so there must be opportunities. I was there a few times this past February and it was a vibrant town indeed.

    Al, you seem to be in good spirits after a setback which is good news.

    Spare a thought for poor old Dom who is presently swinging from a short bungy cord from Grosvenor bridge in Chester, as his black "Nice'n'Easy" has been applied a little bit too far past the hairline and he cannot wipe it off

    Sir Al

    I hope things take an upturn, its a shame in Laguna in a couple of years i have a whole gang of cousins and what not that need a professional tutor of english.

    Some of the couples on here may need an English tutor to help the pinoy or pinay member or a a relative learn English rather than Phill english before coming to these cold shores.

    Have you contacted any of the major call centres to see if they need any professional English tutors?

    A mate of the Missus is training with one in laguna. It seems to be one of the biggest industries in phill, but the level of teaching in this particular one is not awe inspring im told.


    A wee bit busy myself at the mo, but hope things sort themsleves out for you Sir and I will tune in to see if I can help in anyway as often as possible.
