For over twenty years, I've devoted my life to coaching, guided by deep-rooted values of listening, caring and commitment. My journey, rich in experience and life lessons, has been marked by successes, trials and moments of reflection that led me to create the business I'm in today.

A journey rich in experience and learning

My professional adventure began in the world of export, where I worked for five years in a hardware trading company. I quickly progressed to the position of Export Manager, managing a small team and negotiating with demanding European customers. This role enabled me to develop skills in international project management and intercultural communication, but above all it taught me the importance of open-mindedness and tolerance in professional relationships.

I then joined a major French pharmaceutical laboratory, where I worked for twelve years in international sales. At the same time, as a mother of three, I tried to reconcile everything with a job that was becoming progressively dehumanized, caught up in hyperactivity and perfectionism. This led me to burnout in 2016.

Trials and the Transition to Transmission

This difficult episode was a turning point in my life. It was thanks to a skills assessment and coaching that I was able to bounce back. I realized that if you try to do everything on your own, without taking a step back, you can end up in a situation that becomes unsustainable. This experience opened my eyes to the importance of refocusing, of getting to know ourselves better, and of looking for what relieves us and makes us better.

It was in this distancing that I found the strength to redirect myself towards what was really close to my heart: transmission. At the age of 38, I decided to go back to school and obtain a professional degree in educational support and coordination. This choice wasn't simply a career move, it was a move of the heart, rooted in the conviction that education and support are essential levers for individual fulfillment.

Creating customized, human training

On the strength of these experiences, I decided to set up my own tutoring and trilingual training business, in order to offer rigorous and deeply human support. As a micro-entrepreneur, I've had the privilege of accompanying many students, both children and adults, adapting to their specific needs, whether for tutoring or foreign language training.

My experience at a Montessori school, in particular, left a lasting impression on me. Working with teenagers from diverse backgrounds enabled me to see how a personalized, caring approach could transform differences into strengths. This challenge has strengthened my conviction that education must be inclusive, respectful of individual rhythms, and always geared to the development of each individual's personal values.

My Values for Your Success

By going through these trials, I now know the path that leads to personal, family and professional fulfillment. That's why the values that guide my day-to-day work are those I wish to pass on to my learners: active listening, benevolence, method, adaptability, positivity, confidence and commitment. Coaching is not just about acquiring knowledge, it's also about helping each individual to discover and build themselves, and to rise towards meaningful success.

Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to accompanying you on your path to success, in a setting where your values and aspirations will be fully respected.

See you soon,

Anne-Laure Bernanose
