About Me
italki teacher since Jan 7, 2020InterestsBusiness & FinanceTravelFoodMarketingTech
I am from Manchester, England and have a degree in Economics. After four years as a consultant at Deloitte I spent 20 years as a Finance Director in large companies in London. I have worked with top management and interviewed hundreds of candidates. I have since left England and corporate life to start a new adventure in Argentina. I have learned Spanish and made a new life - so I know the challenges involved with such big changes.
In my Business English classes, I will use this experience to coach you on how to speak in important meetings, give presentations, prepare for interviews, and -above all- to succeed.Me as a Teacher
The number one reason why people fail INTERVIEWS - they have not done the RIGHT preparation. Sure they have prepared a LOT - but they have prepared the WRONG things.
For a successful interview - I will COACH you on:
- The SIX key questions you need to ask yourself BEFORE writing a CV or cover letter
- CVs, resumes, cover letters, fantastic job interview performance
- Telling Stories - the key to answer questions
- Business English - idioms, phrases, vocabulary, pronunciation tips
- Professional Communication - presentations, meetings, etiquette, conflict management, My lessons & teaching style
