Maria is a very pedagogical teacher, would highly recommend!
If you're already comfortable with the basics of English and want to take your skills to the next level, my lessons are perfect for you! I focus on conversation practice and expanding vocabulary, helping you gain confidence in real-world situations. Instead of diving into grammar drills, we’ll work on fluency, pronunciation, and natural expression through interactive discussions on a variety of topics that interest you. These sessions are ideal for intermediate to advanced learners who want to refine their speaking abilities and feel more confident when using English in different social settings.

Conflict management & negotiation: communication support for effective and sustainable controlIt is a question of putting in place rational and professional tools to defuse conflicts and enter your comfort / security zone. In particular simple and logical techniques, which make it possible to resolve and manage violent situations in a harmonious, efficient and lasting way.
The objectives are:
0. Understand and identify the issues / risks then find a balance between empathy and conviction
1. Use interpersonal communication techniques resulting from mediation to defuse tensions and gain distance
2. Dissociate the relational and the nature of the disagreement - Overcome cognitive and psychological obstacles
3. Acquire the techniques of self-defense and mastery without hurting and being injured
4. Face and then defuse difficult behaviors (blackmail attempts, threats, destabilization) or even dangerous with a mediation strategy
5. Develop conflict management and negotiation skills by alternating attentive listening, active speaking and rationality in the face of the limited rationality of the angry individual.
Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 or 3 sessions *. (* study 2020)
Postgraduate School Training & Ivy league college in the United States, our teacher has specialized and worked for over 13 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication and public speaking in renowned public and private international institutions, involved in forums and conferences, and focused on two areas: training and coaching, with the key words pedagogy and careful methodology.
PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.
