Encouraging Anxiety Free Interview Prep
David has been an incredible resource for my 16 year old who is prepping for an important interview but has never been asked anything more involved than a dinner order. David has a plan and a lesson structure on how to interact with your interviewer, listen to the question and most importantly respond thoughtfully and fully to the question. He's been invaluable in coaching my son how to be comfortable in what is inherently and uncomfortable position and has also paid close attention to other crucial aspects of interviewing that others tutors often skip--body language, eye contact, delivery, etc. My son actually looks forward to his sessions and I can see his confidence growing. Can't recommend David enough!

Changed my life!
David is a world-class interview tutor. He quickly identified both the small and major gaps in my approach and helped unlock a level of communication ability I didn’t even know I had. Thanks to his coaching, I was able to prepare for (and ultimately secure) an extremely competitive role at a fantastic company. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

Patient, yet gave wonderful constructive feedback!
David was great. I started off really nervous (as usual), but as he stopped me and gave me feedback along the way. By the end, I was no longer nervous and confident in my approach to the interview I had coming up. Thank you!

Fantastic Tutor and Interview Coach
David is a fantastic tutor and interview coach. He has a very structured and proven method for helping people improve their interview skills. From the very first session, he clearly outlines his methodology, provides actionable feedback, and gives tailored strategies to highlight your strengths. What really sets David apart is his ability to break down the interview process into clear, manageable steps. He doesn’t just tell you what to say—he teaches you how to think strategically about your answers, structure them effectively, and deliver them with confidence. He also creates a supportive and encouraging environment that pushes you to improve without ever feeling overwhelmed. After working with him, I noticed a significant boost in both my communication skills and overall confidence going into interviews.

Knowledgeable and Patient
He was great! He helped me cut unnecessary information from my presentation to reduce it to 4 minutes. We also worked on slowing down the speed of speech and emphasizing different words as I spoke.

Amazing, building confidence, and implementing technique
Dave is fantastic! He taught me so many little tips and tricks that I'll implement to my presentations. He is constructive, but fair, and also will tell you when you've done an excellent job!! Thank you, highly recommend!!

The Confidence Coach Every Professional Needs
I always thought I needed a script to speak confidently, until one session with Dave changed that. He helped me realize that natural, unscripted speaking is far more powerful. As a non-native English speaker, I underestimated my ability to communicate naturally in meetings. You just need the right coach -and Dave is that coach. Highly recommend him if you want to become a confident, authentic speaker.
