What I gained from Sylvia was the ability to speak freely, without fear. I generally tend to be the quietest person in the meeting and she helped me prepare for interviews, including dummy interviews. That got me the opportunity to work in Denmark which was a big change in my career. So, it’s not just communication, not just accent, but also personal development. I would strongly recommend Sylvia Cohen Communication.

Even though I am fluent, I felt the strength of my accent was affecting the clarity of my speech in front of the camera. Throughout the course I started to experience enhanced clarity and my standard English accent progressed. Today my accent is clear, and as a result I feel more confident in front of the camera at all times.

Before working with Sylvia I was getting frustrated because despite being an expert in my field people were not able to understand what I was saying which meant even though I had a proven track record of successful projects, my value proposition was not being heard or understood . I was not getting the clients and business I deserved. When I started working with Sylvia, I observed significant improvements in the first month. Today I get the clients and business I deserve.

Working with Sylvia Cohen was an incredible and rewarding experience, as she took my public speaking to the next level, delivering an authentic message and holding the attention of my audience. As a non-native English speaker, I found it difficult to deliver a powerful message to a large audience, despite being a recognised expert in my field. Sylvia was extremely attentive, supportive and professional. Her coaching also had a positive impact on my presentation skills in my mother tongue. I highly recommend Sylvia.
