InterestsTravelTechMedical & Healthcare
I'm Lucy. I grew up in New York and then moved around quite a bit. I've lived in Spain and Switzerland. I have now been living in Argentina for 6 years.
I used to work in marketing: brand and product management, then market research. I learned a lot! Then, five years ago, I decided I had done that long enough and needed more of an adventure. I left my corporate job and became a freelance consultant. I recently represented a British corporate real estate consulting firm in Latin America. I am currently managing learning courses for a tech start-up. I love helping people from all over the world improve their English and grow in their careers.
Me as a Teacher
The main thing about me as a teach is that I care about my students’ success. So I adapt to each student's objectives, their learning style, and their strengths.
In my Business English classes, I bring my business acumen into the classroom. I leverage my own experience to relate to students' needs.
In my conversation classes, we take it easy and explore topics that students enjoy: cute pets, artificial intelligence, money, travel, or whatever it may be.
My lessons & teaching style
We talk a lot in my classes! I suggest new vocabulary, idioms, and phrases to help students be more precise, concise and to strike the right tone.
I correct recurrent grammar mistakes with short explanations and one-the-spot practice.
When we're not in class, I encourage students to soak up more English. I recommend news articles, short stories, podcasts, and videos in line with students' interests.
I also encourage students to bring their own topics to class. I often help them practice difficult presentations, write emails that truly convey their messages, and prepare for interviews and meetings.

Lucy has been helping me improve my language skills through engaging discussions on a wide range of topics. What's great is how attentively Lucy listens during lessons and chooses topics that match your interests! The podcasts and articles she recommends always make me dive deeply into the topic, thus enlarging my vocabulary and strengthening my abilities I use to convey the information and my ideas. Thank you, Lucy, see you in class!=)

I cannot recommend Lucy enough. With her help, I was able to overcome my fear of presenting to larger groups and become a confident speaker. She is a fantastic storyteller and has helped me develop my own storytelling skills as well. Lucy is incredibly knowledgeable and professional, and I always looked forward to our lessons together. If you're looking to improve your public speaking or storytelling abilities, Lucy is the perfect coach for you!
