Position: English & Communication Coach
Category: Other
English level: fluent
Years of experience: 10

Becoming a fully qualified accountant under the ACCA in London, United Kingdom.
For ten years, I worked in London as a qualified accountant in audit and financial services for companies such as Ernst and Young, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, Lloyds Bank and NatWest bank. This meant I constantly had to communicate with Chief Executive Officers, Financial Directors, Partners and managers of all levels constantly.

Aside from the fact that I am a native English speaker, I also started speaking publicly very early (In 2007, I won the regional Yomping the Nations business debate). Since then, I continued to hone my public speaking skills as a member of the Toastmasters public speaking society in the UK. Therefore, not only do I teach English but I also coach techniques which I learned from over ten years of public speaking and working in the foremost business organisations in the United Kingdom.

Following my career in finance, I decided to follow my passion of speaking and coaching full time. I already have a wealth of experience providing one to one online lessons in Business English (Conversation, grammar, pronunciation) to business professionals across Ukraine and Poland. I have helped a wide variety of IT professionals, developers and executives to master the English language in a business context in order to improve their reputation and authority within their organisations. 

Finally, I believe the following traits enable me to stand out from other potential coaches:

* A clear voice and easy to understand accent.
* Public speaking skills and confidence.
* A sense of humour and energy.
 
I believe I have the capability to provide your executive team with the necessary coaching sessions to improve their English and gain confidence in speaking.
I would like to work for an organisation which is committed to improving the communication skills of its people. Every business has two key types of activities: sales and all other tasks. Both are impacted by the ability of its people to communicate. I would like to work with a company that values this fact.
