A Sheffield language school is on the move to larger premises at Broomhill after outgrowing its Sheffield city centre premises.
The A+ English Language School is moving from Bells Court to The Mount, the office block which was once British Steel's regional headquarters, after nearly trebling student numbers.
The school, which includes private and embassy-sponsored students from Saudi Arabia, China, Spain, Poland and Italy among its customers, puts its success down to hard work, a dedicated team, and support from KandoBusinessCoaching.Com of Chesterfield.
Michelle Berhanu, who runs the school with Zoe Graham, says that Kando has not only helped to boost A+'s business, but has also enabled the duo to step back from having to run the school 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
"It's a strange but wonderful feeling, knowing the school is now growing and flourishing virtually without us, giving us the freedom we longed to achieve through the hard work of starting our own business. We wouldn't be in this position without Kando's guidance," said Michelle.
After moving to The Mount, A+ is planning further expansion – setting up its first overseas school in Ethiopia.
