SpeakEnglish.hkCo-Founder
May. 2023Hong Kong SARSpeakEnglish is a spin-off of TheEnglishTeacher.net formerly known as TheEnglishTeacher.com.hk We created this website in an attempt to help Hong Kong people to improve their English before moving away from a oppressed Hong Kong. More updates are about to come, in line with TheEnglishTeacher.net to reach a larger audience.

GreenCompaniesDB.comCo-Founder
Aug. 2022BelgiumWhen I arrived back in Belgium I was broke and in debt. I needed to find money quickly and one of the ways was to go work for a company. But as you know me, I care a lot about nature and it seems that most companies out there care much more about profits than to preserve nature. So I started to look for a job with a Green company, a company that I could join and remain employed for a reasonable amount of time, building up my life again from Belgium, doing something for a cause that's right to me. It appeared that there was no such thing as an HR service for Green companies or environmental companies where Green people or environmentalists could look for opportunities with Green companies and vice versa. The current HR services do not even have a tag or keyword for such companies. So finding a job with a Green company is very difficult but in my view very necessary. Whether you believe in climate change or that climate change is a hoax, it remains our duty to preserve Mother Earth instead of destroying it. That is something you cannot dismiss. And therefore, I still believe that such an HR platform is really necessary and worthy of establishing. So, yes I'm still looking for people to join me in this quest. GreenCompaniesDB is still an MVP.

CharityCoders.comCo-Founder
May. 2021CharityCoders is still an MVP. I wanted to donate some of my time to one or more charities around the world, who could really use my skills and experience, for free, to help them build or develop their website or platform. I have to say that I'm a developer with limited capabilities. I know a lot about Drupal 7, some php and I have quite good understanding of HTML, CSS and jQuery. But don't ask me to develop something in WordPress or react or angular or view. I wouldn't be able to help you. So in my search for these charities, it soon became apparent that just by performing regular searches, I would not be able to find those charities easily. That's when the idea of a two-sided platform came from where charities can find coders with matching skills and vice versa. As of today, I have not given up on this idea and I'm still looking for people to join me in this quest.

RecyclingIdeas.orgFounder
Jan. 2021I'm a Green guy. I love Mother Earth and try my absolute best to minimise my carbon footprint. As I lived in Sydney, Australia from 2020 to mid 2021, I made it a habit for myself to go walking every day for at least 30 minutes. Just walking, in the neighbourhood. And nearly each time, I came across rubbish in front of people's doorsteps. It started to really bug me. These were often fully functioning items or items that could very easily be repaired. But we live in a throwaway society. Next to that, I was frustrated with the way YouTube handles video searches. It's become a platform driven by ads, by what people like, and how many likes a video receives but not by content. So new videos that have great content from unknown channels don't stand a chance to be found. So I thought: what if we created a platform where you could truly search for videos based on title, or description, or based on the uploaded subtitles or any combination and a lot more? Wouldn't that be something that people would flock to in order to not waste their time on YouTube and its intentionally distracting nature? I certainly believe so. And this lead to the idea to aggregate as many videos as possible from YouTube on the topic of recycling and have them in one single place. Yes, we would have to reach out to YouTubers who create recycling idea videos and inform them of the benefits and the added exposure. Since I was already working on 5StarTeachers, I thought I could leverage what I've created so far and set up something similar. And I did. That's how it started. I still believe that such a platform makes sense, has merit in many different ways and is really necessary and worthy of establishing. So, yes I'm still looking for people to join me in this quest. RecyclingIdeas is still an MVP.
CEO & Lead Developer
5StarTeachersCEO & Lead Developer
Jan. 2020Hong Kong SARAs CEO and lead developer at 5StarTeachers, I've built the entire platform single-handedly from scratch, the lack of budget and a team could not hold me back. I could not NOT do this. Being both lead developer and an English teacher gave me a unique edge: Everything I ever wanted to see in a platform from the perspective of a teacher, I could now implement whilst staying true to ethics. Therefore, this is a "teacher-first" platform. We believe that by taking GREAT care of our carefully screened 5-star teachers, students will naturally want to learn, be coached, or seek advice from these incredible human beings. 5StarTeachers grew from the idea to build a platform which allowed my ESL students to easily book their sessions with me according to "my" availability, and to keep their session notes and the voice recordings I always make for my students, in one place: on the platform. Jan 2020: With zero budget, I started building it alone. Apr 2020: I got completely stuck and was forced to find a solution. After 2.5 weeks of searching for help, I finally found my coding coach: Mr Azmat Mohammed Syed, a Pakistani Drupal Expert who taught me, coached me, advised me and then later convinced me to start all over again. May 2020: The 5StarTeachers idea replaced the "English Teacher" idea influenced by my wonderful experience with Mr Syed. It was the real-human-interaction factor that lead to the focus shift: from «teaching English» to «teaching, coaching and advising people 1-to-1 for "any kind of subject"» Oct 2021: The MVP's first launch. Mar 2022: Dealing with financial challenges. Aug 2023: Teacher moderation process is ready and the onboarding can begin. Apr 2024: Influencers can now work with 5StarTeachers transparently using unique coupon codes. Jul 2024: More financial challenges. Mar 2025: Double down on our initial market segment: Asia > Japan

The English Teacher Ltd.Manager - Teacher
Jan. 2010 - Feb. 2016Sai Wan Ho, Hong KongThe English Teacher Ltd. received its certification as a registered school under the laws of Hong Kong in April 2010 and the name of the school was called "The Fine English Teacher Learning Centre". Since 16 January 2015 the name of the learning centre has changed to "The English Teacher Learning Centre". We focus on instilling a natural English awareness in our students' minds. We believe that learning English should happen naturally and effortlessly. We encourage our students to listen to their personal and often tailor-made English listening exercises on a daily basis. The key to learning any language lies in the English environment that you either create for yourself or immerse yourself in. We think differently about how learning English fast and effectively and we are not afraid to rock the boat and defy conventional wisdom. As we have come across lots of similar difficulties the local Chinese speakers are faced with, we want to teach all Chinese people what to do to effectively improve their English language skills. YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/EngTeacherHK We allow our students to play English board games in class because we believe it helps them overcome their lack of confidence and with it, their fear of failure – a word that should not exist in the dictionary. I have always been great at languages and I am also great at working with children. I have many years of working experience in the social and health care sector as a nurse and a social worker. Whilst pursuing a diploma in Social Care I worked with children with learning disabilities and social integration problems at a youth outreach. I also worked in several mental health care providers as a nurse which made me who I am now: an empathetic educator. Being a sound engineer by profession and having developed an exceptional listening skill makes me extremely suitable for teaching English pronunciation to native Chinese speakers. It brings out the best of both worlds in me.
