FIRST impressions matter, however, if you have messed up in the past, all is NOT lost. With over 13 years of leadership experience and 5 years in leadership development, I have cracked the code of how to become:
- A sought-after leader
- A hirable employee
- An engaging presenter
- A clear speaker
- A multi-university accepted student
If any of the above phrases appeal to you and your goal is to be the best version of yourself, join my class!
Not ready to commit to 5 or 10 lessons? Try one lesson and we can see if we are a good match. And when you are ready to change your life, I will come up with a personalized plan to reach your goals.
I am a Consumer Science Masters candidate (a fancy way of saying I'm almost a 'People' Master). I have a retail management background and my research is on university-industry-government management collaboration. I also have a Toastmasters International certificate which is an organization that specializes in leadership and public speaking. I have experience managing children, teenagers and young adults. I have been trusted with executive, departmental and electoral leadership. I am creative at heart so expect unorthodox methods in my leadership process. But if you love a challenge and want to try something new, I am the person for you.
Let's go on a journey together! (Please feel free to call me Sigourney)
Make sure you are in a space free from distractions.

About Me
Hey, I'm Sigourney (pronounced: See-gore-knee)I am passionate about learning languages because they are a great way to get to know each other and communicate. I am currently learning Español and Nihongo and I have a life goal of being at least fluent in 20 languages. If you can teach me a few words in your language, please say 'hello' in your native language. I love international travel and have 79 more countries to cross off my bucket list. I would love to hear more about your country and culture. I offer leadership development classes, interview skills preparation, public speaking classes and conversational classes.

Learning English for beginners.People struggling with English as an Additional Language (EAL) can face challenges in accessing education and social integration, requiring targeted support and strategies from educators and families.
I myself had English as an additional language which I believe makes me very relevant as I can relate to how it feels knowing very little English. Languages I speak are Urdu, English, Punjabi, Italian, and Hindi.
