Hi there,
I'm a 34 yo English teacher (originally from Wroclaw, Poland) However, for some time now I've been planning to move to Romania with my wife. The only problem is that we have neither friends nor relatives there with whom we could stay for starters. That's why we'd probably have to find a job or set up a small business before we leave Poland. At first I considered starting my own school of English, but then it occured to me that going for a franchise might actually be a better idea for a foreigner, considering the number of available mother companies that could offer me their support. So I googled for a while and came across a number of schools I could strike a decent deal with, one of which You'll find here http://speak-up.pl/en. Unfortunately none of my friends have ever had any experience with Speak Up , so if any of You guys ever heard of this school, or any of its franchises in Romania, please let me know. What interests me the most is whether or not they'll make a decent franchising opportunity, where should I possibly invest first and if there are any means to tell if a particular local market (for example in Transilvania) is going to be friendly for my franchise or not. I'd be grateful for any info as it's really hard for me to explore the market solely through Google :)
