Chapter XXVIII
Being able to use it until the sixth year of junior high school made Xu Yiyang breathe a sigh of relief temporarily.
He didn't plan to use the school place all the time, he planned that after the end of this winter vacation assault class, he would either stop training and concentrate on preparing for the college entrance examination, or he would continue to do it in another place.
The reason why I wanted to ask the principal to borrow the venue was mainly because I saw that the winter vacation was approaching, and if I found a place from scratch temporarily, I was afraid that it would be too late.
Therefore, this anonymous report has no real impact on me.
But even if it didn't affect it, Xu Yiyang was still very unhappy about the reported thing.
In front of Zhang Aixue, Xu Yiyang did not show any anger, but said indifferently: "Teacher Zhang, don't worry, after the school starts, I will definitely not use this classroom again." ”
"That's good. Zhang Aixue nodded and said, "School is a more sensitive place after all, and you have to understand." ”
Xu Yiyang said: "I understand very much! Thank you very much for the help of the school! I also trouble you to tell the principal, I will not use this classroom in vain, and I will pay the rent to the school when the time comes." ”
Zhang Aixue waved his hand: "Pull it down, the school can't collect this money, and the nature of collecting it will change." The principal's meaning is that I want to tell you that I will take it back after the school starts, but before the school starts, you step on the practical side, and he will stand on it when the sky falls. ”
As he spoke, Zhang Aixue said in a low voice: "Director Cai of the Education Bureau has praised you, and with him, the principal will not have much pressure." ”
At the beginning of the Yellow River, Xu Yiyang not only saved the fire of No. 1 Middle School, but also the fire of the Education Bureau.
What's more, Thomas Raut's one million donation also has a credit to Xu Yiyang.
Therefore, Director Cai of the Education Bureau really attaches great importance to him.
He had heard about Xu Yiyang's training class early on, and he also knew that the training class was opened in the electric classroom of No. 1 Middle School, but he didn't think there was any problem, it was a rational use of idle resources.
Besides, Xu Yiyang's training class has such a good reputation, and many parents say that their children have attended his training class, and their enthusiasm for learning English has soared, which is a good thing.
With Xu Yiyang's influence, it is likely to directly raise the overall English level of this generation of Yingzhou primary and secondary school students.
With him backing him, Xu Yiyang's borrowing of the classroom during the holiday is nothing at all, and the principal is not afraid that the other party will really report it to the Education Bureau.
After Xu Yiyang thanked Zhang Aixue, Zhang Aixue left in a hurry.
After he left, Xu Yishan said indignantly: "Brother, someone must be jealous that you have made money, so they reported you!"
"It should be. Xu Yiyang sighed helplessly and said: "It may be purely because of red eyes, or it may be a competitor, the latter is more likely." ”
Xu Yishan gritted her teeth angrily: "Competition is fair competition, why do you report people behind your back?"
"It's so normal. ”
Xu Yiyang said, patted her shoulder, and said with a smile: "Okay, calm down, anyway, the principal has also expressed his position, I can finish this class with peace of mind." ”
Xu Yishan asked: "What about after the course?
Xu Yiyang thought for a moment and said: "If you can't open the question, don't be in a hurry to make a decision, in the past two days, I will first do a survey among students and students' parents to see if their willingness to continue learning is strong, and then analyze the market demand." ”
......
In the next few days, Xu Yiyang went out early and returned late every day, and most of his energy was devoted to the training class, and he didn't bother to report his own affairs.
He thinks that chasing many things may not lead to a result.
Sometimes it's better to pretend to be indifferent and continue to go about your business, so that someone hiding in the shadows may come out on their own.
After the five-day course, although the body was very tired, as time went by, the relationship between Xu Yiyang and his 640 students became more and more harmonious.
Xu Yiyang is kind, eloquent, humorous, and very likable to students.
Moreover, his courseware arrangement, while being very knowledgeable and interesting, is also practical and motivating, so it is deeply liked by students and parents.
Because of his strong eloquence and control ability that his peers do not have, he is also trusted and respected by the parents of students.
In the past few days, Xu Yiyang took the time to do a survey among the students, mainly to grasp their and their parents' willingness to continue to study with the class.
According to the results of the survey, 610 of the 640 people were clearly willing to continue to study.
The remaining thirty said they would consider it again, but none of them made it clear that they would not continue their studies.
Xu Yiyang himself didn't expect that the repurchase rate of his training class would be so strong.
With such a strong market demand, Xu Yiyang strengthened his belief in continuing to hold oral training courses.
After all, the income was too high for him to refuse.
Moreover, Xu Yiyang also carefully considered the issue of time, although the third year of high school will start on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, but he can still use his spare time to lead training classes.
In the third year of high school, classes are held six days a week, and Sundays are off, so I can just use the time on Sundays to continue to teach.
At that time, it will still be planned according to the schedule of eight classes and eight classes per day.
However, because there is only one day per week, students can only take one class per week, and they can take four classes per month.
At present, the fee for eight classes is 100 yuan, and it takes two months to complete the total course.
In other words, if the same 640 students are admitted, the tuition income for two months is 64,000 yuan, which is equivalent to 32,000 a month, which is also very considerable.
However, if you want to make this money, you have to solve the problem of the venue first.
The school's electric classroom is definitely not usable, so I can only rent another place.
At present, many training classes live in shantytowns, and most of them are petty fights by some in-service teachers, who rent a self-built house for more than 100 yuan a month, set up a dozen desks, and start working.
These venues are remote, the environment is poor, and they can seat at most one or twenty people.
However, the source of in-service teachers is actually very limited, most of them are their own students, and now there are too many teachers running cram schools outside, and the competition is very fierce, and an ordinary teacher can recruit about 20 students at most.
But for them, twenty or so students earn thousands of dollars a month, which is even higher than their salary.
Xu Yiyang analyzed his advantages and disadvantages, in addition to his own ability, his reputation is very good, so his training class is not only highly willing to repurchase, but there have always been many parents waiting in line to sign up for their children.
Therefore, he does not plan to save money on the field, on the contrary, he also wants to increase the investment in the field to improve the carrying capacity of the class a little.
Now there are 80 students in a class, and the carrying capacity of the new venue should not be lower than this number, and it would be best if it could have more than 100 students.
The more students who attend classes at the same time, the higher the teacher's time-to-energy return ratio.
In addition, I am now in a big class, in fact, there are 80 people in the class, and the difference between 180 people is not big.
As long as you have enough field control ability to let these 180 people sit in the classroom and listen to the lectures, the quality of teaching will not be affected.
From the early to the middle of the establishment of New Oriental, it has always been a large class model, and two or three hundred people are eager to be together in a class, but the quality of teaching can still be guaranteed, and the reputation is also won at this stage.
On the contrary, in the middle and late stages, after the number of branch schools and the number of students corresponding to the teachers became fewer and fewer, the reputation of teaching declined sharply.
It can be seen that a good teacher, even if it is a pair of hundreds of people, can impart knowledge to students very well, while a bad teacher, even if it is one-on-one, may not be able to teach students well.
Therefore, the new venue must be big and good enough, so that it can not only open up the gap with competitors, but also improve its brand image and profitability.
The biggest headache now is how to choose a location for the training course.
Not to mention the high price of renting a shop, it is likely to have to be renovated, and I can't afford to wait;
Although renting a school classroom is the most suitable, he has been secretly sued once now, so he estimates that whichever school he tries to cooperate with, he will be stared at, which is not safe.
Until the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Yiyang still did not find a suitable place.
He told Xu Yishan about his worries, and the little girl subconsciously said: "Brother, why don't we go to the Children's Palace to have a look? ”
"Children's Palace?"
Xu Yiyang's eyes lit up, this kind of place with a strong sense of the times, why didn't he expect it!
