Would You Invest in English Grammar Lessons?

This is mostly for those who do not speak English as a first language, or those who wish to improve their grammar skills beyond the norm...would you invest in grammar lessons or information products?

This is a question I ask because I'm considering producing workbooks geared towards those wanting to improve their grammar. While my main target is freelance writers wanting to make more money, I also want to target the general public.

Please let me know what you think about this idea. Honestly.

If that happens to be related to my job, and would make me earn more money through learning proper grammar, well yes of course. Although some people are too scared to buy something online, they get so paranoid whether its a scam or not. Nice idea though..

I'm sure there is a large number of people who WANT to invest, bit the only problem is reaching your audience. You need to find your niche, and it's one of difficult tasks, really.

Instead of lessons, I'd be interested in a grammar checking service

While English is my native language, I still manage to make plenty of mistakes when writing.
I've used Amazon's Mechanical Turk from time to time. It has been pretty helpful. However, a service that specialized in grammar checking would be worth while.

If it's going to help you in your job, then why not? Go for it! Actually, even if it's not related to your job, English lessons will definitely help you in real life. You'll be able to interact with more people, get across your message clearer, and open up more opportunities for yourself.
