When Kale Anders identified a gap in the language learning industry, he decided to seal it. The 25-year-old pioneer in one of the most significant industries in today’s world owns an online English Academy that facilitates people from different parts of the world, especially Latin America with a new approach to learning English. Anders has transformed the traditional method used to learn foreign language, and made the whole process not only simple, but also fun, and fast.
His business has so far generated over a million and this is just the beginning. On Instagram, Anders has amassed more views than most international celebrities — just from sharing tips on how to learn English!
Before he even posted a video on YouTube, Anders had thousands of subscribers waiting. Today, his content has gathered over a million views. That makes for the perfect definition of 0 to millions, doesn’t it?
The Birth of a Million-Dollar Career
While doing a master’s degree abroad in Latin America, Anders was able to identify the need that people around him had for learning the English language. He had a natural liking for the Latin American culture and fell in love with Mexico. So he decided to stay there even after his studies but was baffled that even in high society, people didn’t speak English. It was in Mexico where he had gone to study that he took it upon himself to learn Spanish, which he did within three months by applying methods he’s developed from reading up on scientific research on language learning.
From his research, Anders discovered a lot on how to learn a different language more efficiently than the conventional way. The young man then felt the need to share with others that would probably be interested. That is how the idea of his online English academy came to be.
Diving Headlong into Social Media
Ander’s desire to share his knowledge on the different techniques he had identified grew and he started making videos about them. He went on to share those particular videos on his Facebook page. Anders later decided to create a Facebook group where he could interact with his audience on a more intricate level. He then started getting feedback from his audience, which was great, since it led to him launching a YouTube channel where he would later share more on the subject. Before he even posted his first video, there were already thousands of subscribers waiting.
This fantastic reception was carried on to his Instagram where his audience followed him to avoid missing out on the nuggets he was sharing. Anders later launched an online course for Latin Americans. Being different from the tiresome traditional methods used in the school system, the course sold fast and has now made over a million for the young CEO.
What has made Anders successful, you ask? Well, determination, intrinsic motivation, and technology have narrowed the gap for him in a big way. Anders goes ahead to mention that so far he has not had to do influencer marketing at all. However, he has a lot to thank Social Media Advertising for.
Kale Anders is the epitome of hard work, determination, and total dedication. He serves as a great example to many that have a dream. He is proving that every dream is valid, as long as people are ready to take the necessary steps. He has shown that there is always a gap that needs to be filled if only people are open-minded and ready to act. Anders did not shy away from the fact that the language education system globally was faulty, and instead took it upon himself to look for a way to supplement it, so can you make a difference.
By presenting a challenge to potential entrepreneurs and existing ones to keep being innovative, Anders has also presented a new idea for people with YouTube channels, on how they could earn from their work. People can also earn from their social media platforms. Everyone should, therefore, take it upon themselves to start from where they are, with what they have. Let us allow ourselves to dream and grow.
