Hannah's Story
Hannah was a newly graduated Sophrologist. She aspired to relocate to Canada with her family and establish a practice there. We undertook the business English course together to equip her for the transition. Additionally, we then dedicated numerous lessons to her therapy sessions, developing scripts and rehearsing vocabulary tailored to her specific therapeutic practice.

Julien's Story
Julien was a head employee at a tech security firm. He possessed a commendable proficiency in English; however, he admitted that he frequently took extended pauses following any errors, which he felt undermined his self-confidence. We focused on content with a large emphasis on discussions to incorporate new vocabulary and enhance his fluency, thereby elevating his confidence. Subsequently, during the course, he expressed how at ease he felt when delivering a presentation to Americans in English at a corporate meeting.
