Confidence + Spanish

Coaching for confidence

You are here because you are longing for conversations where you feel really seen and you can fully engaged in a relaxed state.

You believe there is a way where you can feel lighter and more relaxed in conversations. You believe that there is a way for you to not dread your turn to speak, or where you don’t shy away from participating in a conversation when you actually have something to say.

I am here to tell you that you are not alone and 100% OK.

If...

… your heart races when you have to speak in public
… you stutter or respond with monosyllables
… you are flushed and your breathing is shallow or stops altogether

… you feel self-conscious speaking Spanish even if your level is ok

… people say they can know you better from what you write than from what you say. And you are aware that your written word carries a depth and a complexity that you feel unable to translate verbally, so you sound shallow, tense, or short

… there is what feels like an insurmountable wall between your inner you and the one that presents when talking to others.

Spanish Confidence Coaching

holistic approach

1:1 coaching with me focuses in building up your confidence when speaking in Spanish. Through talk therapy, CBT, poetry therapy, embodiment practices and mindfulness we deal with mental blocks (conditioning, limiting beliefs), behavioural and thinking patterns that you currently have and start disintegrating them.

This program combines Confidence Coaching sessions with Spanish language learning (synchronous 1:1’s and asynchronous tasks (writing, listening and speaking tasks). The Spanish language training is structured on the basis of your current level (B – C CFER levels ). The Spanish sessions tackle both grammar and vocabulary relevant to your current level including advancing it.

During our time together

▻ I will help you uncover the beliefs and blocks that arise when you have to speak to others in public or during presentations

▻ I will offer you tools and practices to develop your confidence and deploy the real you

▻ I will set up challenges for you that push you out of your comfort zone so you can build up your confidence muscle bit by bit.

I cannot recommend working with Maria enough. I started the Confidence program out of sheer frustration at having tried so many ways to find my place as a non-native Spanish speaker and coming up empty every time. The techniques in Maria’s program went straight to the core of the problem and gave me clarity on who I am and what I want to achieve. Maria took the time to get to know me and create a program around my needs. I have so many tools now and I’m amazed at all that happened during the program and where I feel I am now. This is exactly the type of integrative and holistic work the language community desperately needs.
