Group Coaching in English by Ola Jach & Gosia Mazurek

 

Express Yourself Bravely!

English as a tool

Has speaking in English ever made you feel uneasy?

Perhaps you are thinking of changing your job but every offer says you need to speak English fluently and you start sweating even when you think about it? Or maybe you’d like to have English speaking clients for your services?

Or maybe you feel embarrassed at work when you need to speak English during a meeting and freeze in spite of all those years of learning.

Perhaps you’ve just started dating somebody and you want to talk about the things which are the most important for you?

Free to express

Imagine feeling safe in expressing your needs, feelings and opinions! Can you feel it in each of your body cells? 

This is how it will feel when you learn how to work on your strengths and treat them as a base on which the other things can be built.

It’s not a language course. It’s a regular coaching process and English is a tool, though we know you may struggle with it, or not! If you feel you want to do it in English, the programme is for you!

Learning by doing

We believe that the best way to master a language is to learn how to express yourself freely.

It’s not about specific words and grammar. It’s about confidence in conversations based on your connection with your emotions and values.

Our group coaching in English is about fun and lightness.

It’s about being with other people in a way you choose and cultivating your authentic self.

And, at the same time, you can fulfil your need for achievement by saying: speaking English – done!

Each of our group couching meetings has a similar structure. We begin with empathic listening and we end up with a closing round. What is happening in the middle is always new. Every week we plan different exercises so you can experience your skills and resources through inspiring situations.

You will explore your needs and values, focus on your goals or realise how your beliefs and habits are acting in your life. We are also planning for you to get creative and experiment.

We offer you two in one: self-development + English

Gosia Mazurek – English teacher and coach, blogger and author. Has been teaching English for 20 years, among others to the military personnel, only to discover that language learning is the most effective when it is light, fun and goal oriented.

CHECK WHAT WE MAY TALK ABOUT –>

NEEDS AND VALUES

What is important for you? What is the core of all your actions? Have you ever thought about it?  What drives you in life? 

Sometimes you may think that you must go on holiday, and precisely by the sea… and you think this is your need. But is it? Maybe you just need some rest, and this is your need. How about identifying what it is?  Let’s do it together. 

GOALS

Is there anything you’d like to accomplish right now, but have no idea where to start? Are you wondering if it even makes sense? 

What is your vision of yourself? What prevents you from realising it?

Working in a group you can see your goals from many different perspectives.

Set your goals to get a point of reference on your path.

HABITS

Do you want to leave your old ways behind? Would you rather make some things in your life differently?

Or maybe you even don’t know you can do things in a different way?

Changing your habits doesn’t need to hurt. Identify your triggers and cross that line. 

EMPATHY

Would you like to be listened to and seen? Would you like to listen to and see others. We mean, like really hear and see them.

Striving to build close relationships and set healthy boundaries at the same time? Practise emphatic listening with us and develop your emphatic skills to see for yourself what mature empathy can be like.

It is addictive. Beware. 

STRENGHTS
What are you good at? What do people ask you to help them with? What is your natural way of dealing with things?
Acknowledge your strengths and let them make your life fuller… and easier.
Yes, you do have strengths, too! We’re sure, yes!

Testimonials

“Ola and Gosia created a space full of empathy and acceptance, the space in which I felt safe.
This allowed me to open and attempt to “speak” English despite the feeling of my mind going blank, and to my greatest surprise, others understood what I wanted to express.
I strongly experienced the fact that communication is not only words. I learned to choose simpler words when I couldn’t find those I wanted. It turned out that I can speak and be understood.”
– Monika Tumidaj, Scrum Master

 

“Group programme in English was a huge challenge for me. I’ve always struggled with a language barrier. I love talking but English stopped me. Thanks to Gosia and Ola, I felt brave enough to face this challenge. They created the atmosphere of safety and acceptance which became my key to success. And my success was the fact that I managed to speak in an international group during the programme. I took this courage for my foreign trip. And right now, I’ve just given information in English to tourists in Wawel. 😉 Those acts of courage still give me joy! 😍 Thank you! 😘
– Sylwia Zasada, voice and breathing coach
