World economies effect on ESL
With the world stock markets crashing and economies looking at extended recessions. What do you feel the effects will be in the ESL industry?
Perhaps:
- With the USA's decline and increase in importance of China and India, less people finding such importance in learning the English language.
- Economy slowdown, meaning people have less money to spend attending English classes.
- Many Americans looking to cash in on a fallen dollar, by heading overseas to work (ESL would be a major market flooded with new jobseekers)
Just some thoughts, any more?
