英会話ブームの終焉（他の講師の書き込み）
Eikaiwa's been in decline for quite some time. When I worked at Nova, back in 2002, you could see the start of the decline happening then (I think they actually posted their first loss that year).

There was an initial boom and craze for eikaiwa back in the 90s which had burned itself out by then. Perhaps the beast would have soldiered on in better shape for longer had it not been for NOVA's shady business practices finally getting exposed (or indeed, had they engaged in unshady business practices from the start). NOVA was synonymous with the boom in "mass-eikaiwa", and now that they've been disgraced, that's blighted the reputation of the whole business.

Add the recession on top of that - people having to tighten their monthly budgets and focus their resources on things that really matter - and eikaiwa classes are going to be one of the first things to be trimmed. It's non-essential entertainment basically, and I reckon more and more people have finally realized that it's an unnecessary extra that isn't worth wasting their money on. なっとく！ いまひとつ この記事を違反報告する
