I’m doing some market research to help me write an ebook and start a small business venture in Taiwan.
If you teach ESL and live (or have lived) in Taiwan, then please take this nine-question survey and be a part of improving the quality of English here.
You can receive a free copy of my ebook when it is finished.
Please leave any comments below. I would love to hear from you.
Most importantly, thanks for your support.
I tried to do your survey, but I couldn’t submit.
I got a “The comment you entered is in an invalid format.” message between questions 9 and 10.
Not sure which question it was refering to, since there didn’t appear to anything wrong with my response to either 9 or 10.

I don’t know what could have happened here because questions 9 and 10 are both optional.
If there is an invalid answer or a missing but required answer, then a red text explanation will appear above that question.
If you have a minute, please try again. Thank you.
Thank you for the input.
I don’t know of the survey you mentioned; do you have the link by chance?
Any other resources would be a great help.
I created this survey just to help answer a few questions I’ve been thinking about for a while.
It is valuable for me to hear the views of English teachers in Taiwan. The more accurate information available, the better I can design my business venture.
Thanks! Actually, I found Ugo Ortolano’s book online, and it looks great. Has anyone read it?
Originally, I thought wynsen was referring to a market survey that Ugo did, but I guess it was this book.
So back to wynsen’s original question: how will my book be different?
Ugo’s book is a “survival guide” that outlines all the processes of becoming an English teacher in Taiwan: getting a visa, finding an apartment, looking for a job, getting raises, etc.
My book will specifically focus on one aspect of teaching English in Taiwan: the classroom. It will give insight on how to prepare for different classes and levels, build rapport with students, keep students interested, manage classroom time, discipline difficult students, encourage shy students, etc. It will arm new English teachers with tips, tools and techniques to help them become better teachers—benefitting the students in the end. Throughout the book, the reader will also find stories and anecdotes collected from a variety of teachers, which will offer different perspectives about the ESL classroom.
Any feedback, opinions or resources are all greatly appreciated.
