| Experience | Marketing skills | We are looking for professionals with a passion for teaching Spanish to children in the community and who have a desire to grow and manage a successful business. The ideal franchisee is also an excellent communicator both verbally and written, who has an absolute motivation for success. This individual should also be organized and successful at multi-tasking. It is not necessary to have a teaching background or even fluency in the Spanish language. You will be trained on the various Futura curriculums, our teaching methods, as well as techniques necessary to train your local instructors. You should have a love for working with children and a passion for the Spanish language and its many cultures. These two things make promoting Spanish instruction for children contagious! |
