Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Welcome to "Dialogues that Connect: Strengthening Relationships through the Power of Words", a workshop designed for all those who seek to delve deeper into the essence of human relationships, using language and effective communication as fundamental tools.In this unique and transformative space, we will embark on a journey into the heart of our daily interactions, discovering how the words we choose and the way we pronounce them can open doors to more meaningful, empathetic and lasting relationships.
Throughout our workshop, we will explore the richness of language and its impact on building emotional bridges between people. We will learn to identify communication patterns that distance us from others and develop skills to formulate statements that invite connection, mutual understanding and strengthening our bonds.
Our program is structured in interactive sessions, where theory is intertwined with practice. Through experiential exercises, role-playing and group discussions, each participant will have the opportunity to experience first-hand the transformative power of words in creating a space for authentic and respectful dialogue.
We will address key topics such as assertiveness in communication, active listening, recognition and expression of emotions through language, and how our statements can be bridges to empathy and deep understanding. Likewise, we will reflect on the impact of our words on a personal, professional and social level, and how we can use language to build a more connected and human community.
"Dialogues that Connect" is aimed at individuals from all walks of life: professionals looking to improve their communication at work, couples eager to deepen their connection, friends who want to strengthen their bonds, and anyone interested in enriching their interpersonal relationships. .
At the end of this workshop, participants will leave equipped with practical tools and deep knowledge about how positive language and statements can be catalysts for creating authentic, respectful and meaningful relationships.
Prepare to transform your interactions and strengthen your relationships in deep and lasting ways. Join us in "Dialogues that Connect", and let's begin together this journey towards more effective communication and more united hearts.

German Language for Beginners (Deutsch - A1 und A2)German as a foreign language can be hard, especially regarding the grammar part. Always focusing on the structures of the sentences can be challenging and demotivating when trying to connect the sentences in a communication environment. That is why with the help of this class, you'll get more confident in building strong sentences without the stress usually involved.
As a foreign speaker of German of over 3 years, there's no other person that understands the struggles better than I do. We will cover all the fundamentals with the background of grammar and syntax so that we are able to create a strong base for future advanced levels.

Conversational English and IELTS, TOEFL, TOEIC, SAT preparation.A certified English Teacher| Master’s degree| Started teaching 9 years ago| Taught all ages and levels| Specializing in Conversational English| IELTS, TOEFL, TOEIC, SAT preparation.
My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also have to make sure that the learner is not running in a circle. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.
PS: Currently, I’m working on my PhD thesis in English literature. Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

✅COACHING / MANAGEMENT CONSULTING / COMMUNICATION WITHIN MARITAL / COUPLE & FAMILY RELATIONSIn our imagination, nourished by our education and our conditioning, we all believed one day that once married, having founded our family, we will realize our dream.
Before taking the leap, we all idealize this life, and the stronger our hope, the stronger the awakening to the reality of life would probably be.
Indeed, family life is another experience, a challenge and a process during which we learn a lot about ourselves, about the other and about the relationship.
By choosing the right mediator, family and married life can therefore be a great opportunity to grow (sometimes in pain, in joy).
Among the possible accompaniments, some examples:
- The basics of a solid and fulfilled married or family life
- How to resolve disagreements
- The secrets of a balanced and balancing child education
- Learn to express emotions
- Manage families and in-laws
- How to take your place within the couple
- Define the respective roles of each
Among the techniques used:
- Non-violent communication tools
- The “helping relationship” which aims to support people in crisis or conflict situations and help them resolve dysfunctions (emotional, relational difficulties, repetition of scenarios, lack of self-confidence, etc.) . It also leads to better self-knowledge and guides the person to discover their own solutions.
The practitioner in helping relationship through his attentive and neutral listening, his training, his personality, his presence, his availability will allow the consultant to progress towards a better knowledge of his psychological mechanisms, respecting his blockages, his rhythm and his ability to hear.
The therapist takes into account the subject as a whole: physical, psychological and social.
Allow the consultant to access autonomy so that he can, when he feels ready, walk alone, in all inner serenity.
- Coaching that allows you to act and take responsibility, which is the basis of effective and lasting change. Work on the management of emotions and relationships, confidence and self-esteem, self-affirmation is at the center of individual support, which allows you to live more fulfilled and authentic relationships.
- Love coaching, which is personalized support based on understanding the mechanisms of love and focusing on putting an individual in this disposition of openness and acceptance of the other and their difference (which prepares to receive love) and to transfer keys of understanding to gain emotional maturity.
It allows you to obtain concrete and measurable results in your love life.
Through coaching, the consultant becomes aware of his resources, optimizes his potential and transforms his life.
- Brief marital and family therapy. She is interested in how the problems manifest themselves in the present but the personal history of each is also approached. This insight helps to better understand the events experienced and to make connections between the past and what is at stake in the current difficulties. We introduce changes in behavior to open up perspectives, mainly relational.
- Sophrology. Sophrology is a gentle method that promotes relaxation of the body and mind where you relearn how to listen to your feelings using controlled breathing exercises, muscle relaxation and mental suggestions. It allows you to develop your potential, regain self-confidence, manage your emotions and achieve your goals. It will be, at times, interesting to use this technique to manage to unblock the mind that is blocking and to give the body more amplitude to welcome what presents itself.
