FIRST impressions matter, however, if you have messed up in the past, all is NOT lost. With over 13 years of leadership experience and 5 years in leadership development, I have cracked the code of how to become:

- A sought-after leader
- A hirable employee
- An engaging presenter
- A clear speaker
- A multi-university accepted student

If any of the above phrases appeal to you and your goal is to be the best version of yourself, join my class!
Not ready to commit to 5 or 10 lessons? Try one lesson and we can see if we are a good match. And when you are ready to change your life, I will come up with a personalized plan to reach your goals.

I am a Consumer Science Masters candidate (a fancy way of saying I'm almost a 'People' Master). I have a retail management background and my research is on university-industry-government management collaboration. I also have a Toastmasters International certificate which is an organization that specializes in leadership and public speaking. I have experience managing children, teenagers and young adults. I have been trusted with executive, departmental and electoral leadership. I am creative at heart so expect unorthodox methods in my leadership process. But if you love a challenge and want to try something new, I am the person for you.

Let's go on a journey together! (Please feel free to call me Sigourney)

Présentation

Hey, I'm Sigourney (pronounced: See-gore-knee)

I am passionate about learning languages because they are a great way to get to know each other and communicate. I am currently learning Español and Nihongo and I have a life goal of being at least fluent in 20 languages. If you can teach me a few words in your language, please say 'hello' in your native language. I love international travel and have 79 more countries to cross off my bucket list. I would love to hear more about your country and culture. I offer leadership development classes, interview skills preparation, public speaking classes and conversational classes.

[Look at the YELLOW image for context]

Adapted to each case and need, the objective is support in accessing a job, from the search for departure to the signing of the contract:
- After the search and selection of relevant advertisements, establish and illustrate your transversal skills profile then create an attractive CV and write a striking cover letter highlighting your professional background
- stand out in the preparation of their interviews, from oral presentation to expression through appropriate body language. Interview simulation & video analysis filmed if necessary.
- Identify your values, promote your professional project / your assets and strengths but also work on areas for improvement in order to find new momentum in your career.

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions. (study 2020)

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne.

But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: chat notes that can be read later).
In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

Having obtained my gymnasium maturity certificate in June 2020, I have an intermediate level B1 in these two languages with a small advance on English. I have vocabulary in both languages very favorable for improvement in the language we work.
