It depends on the quality of your website. It' a fact that English learning market is getting larger and larger in China. Many Chinese spend much money on English for they believe that one day they will be amply rewarded in return. If you could provide them with what they need, you will also be rewarded. But don't forget that there are already many service providers in this market. The competition is very severe. In order to be successful, you must establish your own characteristics to attract people. So I advise you to investigate carefully before you start your website.

I think it will. I am teaching Chinese students at the present.I think they want to excel in all areas and English is of course one of those. They are very determined persons and they work really hard to be the best. Are you planning on putting up an online business online I think it will work. Just be patient. I am planning of putting up my own too but I guess I need more connections cause I don't know where to start really.

Well if you plan on traveling then yes english is important to learn well to anyone really. Because a lot of countries speak english even though china dosnt speak english it will make traveling a lot easier especially if you plan on coming to america someday then you should learn how to speak english.

Well, I notice that a lot of chinese people go studying abroad, either to Europe, Australia or America. And however, they should learn English. I notice it is not easy to learn another language, other than our first language. But I've also heard that China is improving its people's english ability. I've also met a lot of chinese people who could speak English very very well.

I think you would have to be an acredited school or program. Espeially if you plan on charging for it. And then there's the whole run on sentence and punctuation thing.
