Before working with Walter, I struggled to stay positive and keep taking the next steps to maintain momentum in my business. I felt stuck, out of new ideas, and wanted to find a way to generate more business beyond the usual approach. Now, I feel more positive, and I am acting on ideas rather than just thinking about them. In my fitness classes, I’ve started to share my successes and provide valuable information to members, instead of simply saying, 'If you need a Realtor, please let me know.' Taking the initiative to make calls and follow up, even when it’s uncomfortable, has made the biggest difference. Working with Walter has genuinely helped me see things differently.

I found coaching to be a useful addition to my conversation practice with tutors. I felt like coaching helped me address the more intangible items with which I was struggling as a second language learner, such as feeling more comfortable striking up a conversation with a native (getting out of my comfort zone). Also, Walter was very flexible and we pivoted the coaching several times during the sessions. He also introduced me to several tools with which I was previously unfamiliar. He suggested other creative ways to approach expanding my ability to speak with more fluidity, which was my primary goal with coaching.

I loved working with Walter and found it enormously helpful. I have been studying Spanish for many years, and Walter was able to quickly identify the areas where I could study much more effectively. Together we created a study plan that has totally transformed my approach to the language. Not only am I learning more, but I’m also having much more fun.

Walter helped me find unique and interesting ways to incorporate Spanish into my everyday life. I like how amenable he is to the ideas of immersion learning – but at the same time, he doesn’t scoff at more traditional methods. That can be a hard quality to find in a tutor/mentor. After just over a year of learning Spanish, I reached a comfortable level of conversational fluency. I think Walter played an important role in me reaching that goal.
