    It was a nice workshop. But not quite what I expected. It felt a little juvenile. I thought it was going to be geared more towards professionals.

    Reviewed by Sandra K. on 2/6/2020
    This was a very practical, "learn by doing" class. I loved that he proved or guided us to discover consequences/abilities for ourselves before explaining the results; we experienced for ourselves an improvement in focus or memory as a result of posture, awareness and focus. The class was small (7 people) and well structured, with a clear beginning, middle and end. It moved smoothly from theoretical structure to practice to wrapping up a summary of the most important takeaways to remember. The materials and content he prepared were all excellent quality. Andrew is clearly committed and passionate about helping people improve. He stayed late on his own time to make sure we got the full benefits of the course, when factors out of his control disrupted the start. He's extremely professional and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him if my company wants to bring in a coach or if my friends need help with interviews, networking or negotiation.

    This is a great class if you want to understand the structure of an effective conversation and how to get to a relaxed state to have a great conversation. I wanted to understand the fear and anxiety that sometimes occurs when having a conversation with someone new and this class helped me fix that. There is a lot practice time too so that was helpful.

    A month has already passed and no certificate was issued on my behalf, so I could not count on it to present it as at least as a prove of my attendance. My educational institution apparently selected this course randomly because no outstanding reviews about the company or the course were available. The activity was held in a glass walled improvised office that was almost inaccessible, the building was under reparation, and the personnel there did not know about the ongoing course. I needed to go through a back door of the hotel, ask somebody to allow me getting in the lift. There were neither warning about this situation on the website, nor in the place to redirect the attendees to the place of interest. In addition, they did not provide information about parking availability, so prepare to spend 45 min to find a place where to leave your car. The class started with a video of a show in which Robins Williams is interviewed. Then, he continued his class guided by a power point presentation, which slides were denied to me. the professor spent nice 25 min in relaxation and postural techniques, made attendees to walk around the central table, and finished the class making people talking in pairs and change the topics at his will. Still arguing about the impact of these techniques on the conversation. I was billed almost 50 dollars for an almost 3 h course, and still a representative of the company called me saying that the professor did not register my attendance. I always want to be thankful, but how?

    This was a really eye opening class, realized that there’s more in any conversation than just the talk. The instructor will walk you through step by step with exercises to put in practice the theory. Definitely worth it, specially for business and life.

    Instructor extremely energetic and passionate. Needs to read audience Better. Monday night people tired. Could have shown less lengthy sample videos and reduced last exercise. Also when you say class ends at - mean it. We also work crazy hours. Be more succinct and to the line.

I know you already answered about the price difference but I don’t understand. Student/entrepreneur or professional? Entrepreneurs are professionals, and if we’re taking your class we’re all students.

Hi Cathy! The student can choose - there are no pre-requisites. The idea is to make the workshop more affordable by offering tiered pricing.
