Massimo A. says, "I have been extremely happy with Sarah's video call training. The lessons are engaging and well-structured with good online materials. I personally believe that they are quite unique and innovative. For me, it has been a big plus that I can attend the training sessions in the office, at home or during business trips, and the technology platform works well. After a few lessons, I saw real significant progress. Based on these successes, I decided to buy further (coaching) sessions with Sarah at CommuniClear because I would like to ride the momentum and strive for continuous improvements"See more

Sara H. says, "Nancy is highly professional and experienced. Just a few minutes into our first class, she encouraged me by saying it’s not that your vocabulary is limited as you described, it is just you need to get comfortable to bring it out. I can’t say this is magic, but just after two lessons I started to notice that I became more confident and the anxiety has disappeared. My goal is to express myself freely in English. I am so happy to embark on this journey and see results little by little."See more

I help people become clear, confident speakers in real-world situations—business presentations, interviews, toasts, and important conversations where the words actually matter and how you deliver them makes the difference. My background is in competitive public speaking and coaching, with 18 years of experience. I’m a multi-time national public speaking champion, a repeat national finalist across impromptu and extemporaneous formats, and I’ve spent years teaching students how to organize ideas, tell compelling stories, and deliver them with clarity, presence, and confidence. What clients usually appreciate most is that I don’t teach “performance” for performance’s sake. We focus on clarity, structure, and sounding like yourself—just sharper, more confident, and easier to follow, both on the page and in the room. Whether you’re preparing for a big presentation, a wedding toast, or a high-stakes interview, my goal is simple: help you say what you mean and be heard.See more
