Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
Since 1981
What is your primary product or service?
We started as a language training company for businesses and individuals.
Then added interpreting and translating for courts, hospitals, international companies as well as
private individuals.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
I taught foreign languages in private and public schools and colleges, and wanted to have more control over how languages were taught. The goal was to teach the practical situations where speaking a foreign language was not only more effective but more fun. Finally decided to go into business for myself.
I taught languages in high school and college and finally decided to open my own business.
