If you are tired of what you are going through,then start something small.The truth is, however, you don’t have to have a lot of money, or a special skill, to start a business. Just to prove the point, we’ve come up with few simple, easy to execute ideas that you can use today, with very little investment, to start your road to entrepreneurship.
Start an evening class teaching basic computer skills.
This might include an introduction to various aspects of the Windows operating system, plus how to use a web browser to surf the internet, and how to use an email program.
Start a self-defence class specialising in martial arts. Find suitable premises to hold the classes. If you don`t have the necessary qualifications advertise for qualified experts to teach for you. Pay them a set fee or a percentage of the profits. Advertise the classes in the local newspaper, shop windows and community noticeboards.
Start your own school for dancing.
If you have the experience and patience to teach children, or adults, then why not put your skills to good use by offering dancing classes part-time? Whether it`s tap, ballet or ballroom dancing, there will always be a number of people who will want to learn. Particularly young children who are often encouraged by their parents. Finding suitable premises is the main hurdle. Once a location is found advertise your classes in the local press.
Start and run weekend courses in landscape painting or photography.
If you`re a creative type with a good knowledge of painting or photographic techniques, then why not set up a course teaching other people how to paint or photograph landscapes like an expert. The course could include an occasional trip to areas of natural beauty to gain practical experience, as well as classroom theory. There are lots of people looking for ways to spend their leisure time, and painting and photography are two of the most popular subjects for newcomers seeking to improve or take up a new hobby.
Teach the English language. This would be aimed at foreign students and residents who want to improve their English and writing skills. This can be done on a personal one-to-one basis in the person`s own home, or with a group of people at an evening class. This would make a good part-time opportunity for a qualified teacher to supplement their income.
Teach a foreign language.
A foreign resident who speaks good English should have no difficulty in finding students who wish to learn their language through personal tuition. French, German, Spanish and Italian are probably the most popular choices. But other languages are also in demand. Advertise your service in the local and regional press.
Teach people how to sail.
Here is another popular activity that holidaymakers like to participate in at seaside and lakeside resorts. A similar operation to the one previously described for windsurfing could be set up, only this time your teaching skills would be based on your expert knowledge of handling small sailing craft. Apart from the obvious requirement of having a place to keep your boats, make sure that you have the correct insurance to cover all eventualities.
Become a sports instructor.
If you`re a keen sportsmen with skills or qualifications in any particular area, you should seriously consider teaching others how to improve their game. A good instructor can easily make a good part-time income from teaching one of the following sports: Golf, tennis, swimming, football, rugby, athletics, gymnastics etc. If you`re suitably qualified, approach your local sports club to see if any vacancies are available, or set up your own class by hiring suitable facilities and charging for personal tuition.
Become an aerobics instructor.
Here again, someone with suitable qualifications can start their own part-time classes teaching aerobics on a regular basis. Aerobics is one of the more popular activities used to help people get fit. Classes of twenty people or more are not unusual. Advertise your courses in the local press and sports centres.
