    Experience

    English Instructor and Life Coach

    Oct, 2004 - Present

    Coaching (L.A., NYC, Barcelona)

    While I have taught at various institutions since 2004, I have also maintained my own English Communication Coaching business. I have helped thousands of clients overcome low confidence by building up their strengths and concentrating on communication objectives. By working with me, both English students and coaching clients have improved their communication skills through speaking, reading, writing and listening exercises specially selected for them. Indirectly, more confidence leads to greater life satisfaction, physical well-being and happiness. Couldn't we all use some more of those? My focus as a health coach is to help my clients find more energy simply by adjusting lifestyle habits like eating, drinking, moving, enjoying, working, and concentrating.
