Improve Your English For Leadership Roles in Consulting

I am retired Managing Director from one of the industry's tier one consultancies. After almost 25 years in consulting working with a range of clients in a range of industries such as finance, banking, technology, consumer products, manufacturing, an insurance), I have gained the knowledge, experience, and insights with respect to what it takes to be a good consultant. Coupled with my passion to teach, a TEFL certificate, and almost three years of experience teaching English in Europe, this makes for an informative and effective experience. As a native English speaker from Canada, I know what it takes to learn a language since I speak French (B2), German (B2), and am currently learning Italian (A2).

I have been teaching consultants English for the last three years and have a vast collection of interesting materials applicable to consulting and leadership skills to utilise during our lessons. Your success is my success. To obtain the most value from your lessons, I will work with you to develop a study plan based upon YOUR interests and needs.

I am known for making my lessons practical and enjoyable. We will review vocabulary and terminology specific to consulting and leadership skills as well as to your specific industry through the use of role-plays, listening exercises, presentations, and one-on-one discussions. I will also help you develop a self-study learning program which you can use to between our lessons.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested and we can discuss the possibility of working together further.

About Me

Hello, my name is Michael. I am a retired Managing Director from Deloitte Consulting in San Francisco. My specialty is technology enablement across several business processes. I have worked globally for the past 25 years.

I am Canadian and spend some of the year in British Columbia. During the spring and summer, I travel to our homes in France and Italy. During the winter, I am usually found in Joshua Tree, California in the high desert.

I have always had a passion for teaching and did a great deal during my career in consulting. I have been teaching English to Italian professionals for the past three years.

I speak French and German fluently, so I know what it takes to learn a language. This knowledge, coupled with my business experience in a senior leadership role, enables me to assist my clients to expand their English proficiency.

Learning Swahili - Salutation example Hujambo -( Hello) Sijambo (Hello) - Beginner -intermediate - Advanced
Swahili is an essential language when working and visit African especially when working or doing studies. It offer access to the Swahili culture and other East Africa Culture. Is there any point to learn Swahili as a language? Yes! it is very important as far as African is concerned since it is the favorite suggested and endorsed by African Leaders to be the official language uniting African people and culture soon. Swahili is a total language (its name is literally from the word for "coastal" in Arabic), and so it's best spoken in the coastal regions of both Kenya and Tanzania, where it's not only the lingua franca, but the mother tongue of the Swahili people themselves. Swahili commonly known as "Kiswahili " has the potential to forge strong trading ties between the people of eastern, central and Southern Africa and to promote cultural cohesion. If widely promoted in these regions, the language can single-handedly remove the artificial barriers and boundaries imposed by imperial powers.
