About Me
italki teacher since Apr 19, 2016InterestsReadingMedical & HealthcareWritingEnvironment & NatureTravel
I’m a 5-star career coach with The Muse, a top career platform trusted by millions of job seekers.
I’m passionate about helping people develop communication skills to achieve their goals—whether landing a dream job, securing competitive residencies and fellowships, or gaining admission to top universities.
Beyond teaching, I create resources for job seekers, including a 5-hour course to help ESL speakers get jobs, the Express to Impress podcast, and career advice articles for Indeed, The Muse, & HuffPost.
I’ve interviewed in Spanish and understand what it takes to succeed in a second language. I also love children and languages—my toddler is immersed in Spanish, Portuguese, and Mandarin!Me as a Teacher
I’m a TEFL-certified teacher and Certified Employment Interview Professional (PARWCC) with a background in international project management, marketing/communications & grant writing. I’m passionate about interview coaching because it not only helps people land jobs but also equips them with essential communication and cultural skills for long-term career success.
My coaching focuses on building confidence, balancing self-assurance with humility, telling compelling professional stories, and fostering connections with interviewers. I also help clients understand cultural influences—both in their own communication and that of the interviewer—so they can better navigate workplace expectations.My lessons & teaching style
I tailor each lesson to your needs, first assessing areas for improvement through observation and discussion. We work on building skills, practice them, and I provide homework assignments, as well as access to an AI speech coach for detailed feedback on your strengths and weaknesses. I help professionals stand out by building confidence, managing nerves, structuring responses, and refining delivery for memorable interviews.
What I offer:
✅ Confident speaking
✅ Clear, organized answers
✅ Calmer, composed interviews
✅ Landing offers from your dream companies
Many clients report feeling more confident and articulate, and I’d love to help you achieve the same success!My teaching material
