Summary
Rather than me speak about me, here are some comments from people I have coached:
"Preparar una presentación con Albert a mí me proporciona mucha tranquilidad ya que sé que aquello que quiero transmitir es lo que realmente estoy transmitiendo." A leading Eye Surgeon.
"Albert is the best coach I've ever met. The way he guides you to prepare your speeches and your presentations makes you think out of the box, focusing on your objectives and your audience, and it results in preparing them in a different way and in gaining self-confidence in your skills; so necessary to make you shine." FMCG Marketing Consultant
"Albert is a great professional that can generate easily a nice environment for you to feel confident to share your pitfalls and have an open communication with him. He is a consultant that not only you will enjoy, but more importantly, you will learn, as he is always looking for excellence by finding the right and kind words but being assertive when communicating the pain points." Academy Director
"Albert's methods are clear but also adapted to the client needs and actually I have used them not only in English-speaking environments but also to improve my communication in Spanish. " Head of Performance
"Albert is an excellent and seasoned coach on leadership communication in English. He has helped us to adapt our Latin style so that we connect better with the Anglo-Saxon world. " CEO FMCG
"Albert’s coaching was very valuable to me and I would highlight his holistic approach and talent to stay focused on what is most important. On the practical side I valued the fact that Albert integrated training input and practice, alongside the deeper coaching process." Head of Finance Excellence Multi-national Chemicals

Teaching Certificate - Geography And French
09.1972 - 07.1975
The principal value of this course for me was in the studies and insights into how we learn; how to structure and adapt our teaching such that the students do the learning. When I teach, two people learn; the student and me.
