Looking for a small-business mentor, preferably with language school experience.

I'm launching a language school in Kawasaki next January. I have saved the start-up funds myself, but I have never run a business before. I've questions about pricing, suppliers, simple bookkeeping, hiring and - frankly - how not to burn out.
I'm looking for a mentor with real small-business experience, ideally in a language school, willing to have a monthly call for the first six months. I'll bring a list of questions and my numbers.
If you have a few hours a month, and enjoy helping someone avoid the mistakes you made, I'd really appreciate it.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
- effort
- 1 hour a month
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- small business experience, bookkeeping, pricing

Sending good thoughts, Ayumi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Kawasaki.
Stay strong, Ayumi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Paris this morning. All the best.
sending strength, Ayumi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
Hope it all works out, Ayumi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
Sending strength, Ayumi. I hope things turn around soon. I hope December is when things finally get easier.
Stay strong. Hope you make a strong comeback. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
