How to GET THAT JOB (CV/Resume writing and job interview preparation):

This three month course was a fantastic opportunity to enhance my existing coaching skills in an English teaching scenario. 

I performed extremely well in the course, achieving a grade A and positive feedback from my tutors.

This course provided the perfect opportunity to move into my current role of Business English Coach.

This extremely informative and practical course has certified me as a Teaching Specialist in IELTS.

In 2018 I was looking for a new teaching challenge and wanted to explore the world of online learning platforms.

Since then, I have managed a virtual classroom of up 50 students at La Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (Open University). I enjoy motivating my students to achieve their goals and improve their English, related to their chosen degree subject, IT.

I use Moodles, the Google suite, video upload via LangBlog and a vibrant noticeboard to support and encourage my learners.

In 2006 I was looking to develop my training skills and give them an extra dimension. 

I moved from Bristol, UK to Barcelona, Spain and combined my love of different cultures and business coaching skills and became a Business English Coach.

On returning from my world tour, I felt the desire to further develop my training skills and continue to build my ability to help business people through coaching.    

I began my role as a Training & Development Manager, which involved delivering sessions ranging from technical computer-based training to behavioural soft skills, to groups of up to 30 delegates, from regional managers to cashiers.  I developed my coaching skills, providing in-branch coaching sessions.

As a compliment to my initial career development in Training and Coaching, I decided to further strengthen my life experience and interpersonal skills by travelling the world from April 1996 - April 1998.

During this time I lived and worked in Melbourne, Australia, where I learned to adapt to different cultures, both within business and life.

This is where I got my first taste of helping business people to improve their skills. I ran induction training for groups of new entrants which began my lifelong passion for Training and Coaching.

I gained my first steps into the business world, when I achieved a place on the Accelerated Management Training Scheme. This gave me a varied insight into how the corporate world worked and a strong interest in making things better.
