what you said,
people will forget
what you did
but
people will never forget
how you made them feel.

CAREER AND STRESS COACHING TESTIMONIALS
JASMINE
Meeting Eric was pure coincidence, but I’m truly grateful that this coincidence happened. He didn’t just help me improve my English and prepare for exams — he also supported me during difficult moments and offered me new ways of seeing the world.
One conversation that really stayed with me was when we talked about MBTI--Myers-Briggs Type Indicator . I mentioned that I’m an ENFP--Extroverted, Intuitive, Feeling, and Perceiving--and he simply said: don’t let these labels define you — you can be anyone. That was the moment I realized how open and expandable life can be.
Eric is not just a language teacher, but someone who helps you think more freely and confidently. I highly recommend his classes.

I have always recognized Eric's superior gift for understanding human energy and spirit. Eric is a perfect person for someone who needs the confidence of a professional who listens deliberately and caringly, someone who presents an innovative 'way' that encourages and motivates.
DORA
Eric is much more than a communications consultant. He offers a perspective on life that allows us to work through the blockages we have behind our relationship with learning. He is highly attentive and present, offering very valuable, personalized support.
GASPARD
Eric is a person with many qualities, including the richness of his exchanges, his listening skills, his kindness, his attention to detail, and his consistency, making him an invaluable teacher. I initially took lessons with him to strengthen my skills, increase the quality of my oral expression, but also to diversify and expand the possibilities associated with this fascinating language that is English. I came out of a series of lessons motivated, more attentive, and enriched with references, ideas, and ideas from which I can continue to work. Thank you for everything, Eric, and I hope to have the chance to repeat this experience, as it was so rewarding!

Eric is a great coach. With him, I learned and progressed without stress. His methods were always interesting. Furthermore, he was a gentleman who helped me whenever I needed support. It was a pleasure to be his student. I wish that everybody had the chance to study with someone as professional as you.
VALERIE
Dear Eric, it was a pleasure to have lessons with you. To be honest, at the beginning I was a little scared to have them via video due to a previous bad experience. However, I have changed my mind and now I think this is an efficient way of training. Due to your human skills, you had the ability to quickly detect how to leverage my motivation. Thanks for all the advice, tools, useful links and places you gave me to further encourage my confidence. All my best wishes for success in your future adventure.

Eric looks at things with a refreshingly different perspective; an unadulterated view. As a result, he sees right to the core of issues and presents a distilled answer that moves every discussion forward with minimal effort and distraction. It is a gift to be able to do so.

I sincerely recommend the training in English with BUBBLE DEN and Eric, who is very accurate in his courses and pushes me to go into the details of this language. Each course is a pleasure, as we share various and varied topics in a good mood. Between each course, Eric provides exercises and important information, which allows for work between lessons. Thanks to this training, I have caught up on many years of falling behind in English. Now, I am comfortable at international meetings.
Je recommande sincèrement la formation en Anglais avec BUBBLE DEN et Eric quiest très précis dans ses cours et me pousse à aller dans les détails de cette langue. Chaque cours est le plaisir de partager des sujets divers et variés dans la bonne humeur. Entre chaque cours, Eric alimente d'exercices et 'informations importantes ce qui permet de travailler entre les leçons.

Eric is incredibly inspiring. The positive energy has always been enlightening. His penetrating questions, which demand deep and thought-provoking answers, helped me rethink my approach to all. His ability to listen is unlike any I've known. Sincere, real, and calm. When I think of Eric, I think about the word "calm."
BETH
I had a wonderful yet too short session with Eric to learn through experience the type of meditation he practices and teaches. His soothing energy and clear explanations made for a transforming experience. He is an artist as well as a healer. I would love to experience a session working with painting. He is open and loving and does the work himself. He clearly has personally gone through much growth and transformation and has very healing views about suffering. We all should make time to learn from Eric about experiencing more peace in our lives.
BRUNO
After a quick assessment of your needs, Eric knows how to put you at ease, find interesting topics that encourage you to talk, and always guide you kindly. His classes are motivating, he is an interesting man, so in the end, the progress is real.
Après un rapide diagnostique de vos besoins, Éric sait mettre en confiance, trouver des sujets d’intérêt qui vous incite à parler, et vous corrige toujours gentiment. Ses cours sont motivants, l’homme est intéressant donc au final la progression est réelle.

As a former learner of Eric's, I enjoyed the experience.
I had 35 hours of online sessions with him. His meticulous and methodical flair for suggesting solutions and improving weaknesses using humor, anecdotes, and engaging topics of the day was exceptional. Thanks, Eric!

I met Eric in 1997, shortly after moving to LA form Arizona. He immediately made me feel welcome and helped me out tremendously. Eric is very comfortable with himself, which makes everyone around him feel more comfortable. I was blown away by Eric’s boldness and zest for fearlessly stepping into the unknown. Eric is a great listener and is genuinely interested in others. His advice when dealing with seemingly impossible situations is always uplifting and spot on. Eric is very centered, real, grounded and always comes from an honest, loving place.
MAGALIE
I wholeheartedly recommend Eric! The training method is specially developed to be in line with the aspirations and capacities of the students. It fosters optimal growth. In four words, Eric is: adaptable; challenging; good-willed; and cheerfully communicative! Oups that’s five. 😊 I thank my teacher Eric for his support. Every day, I am growing and gaining self-confidence!
