Speaking with Impact
Whether you’re leading change, presenting an idea or pitching a product, besides communicating the information, your job is to make sure your message really gets across.

When your audience is international, it takes extra focus, awareness, and skill to make the impact you want. And when English is not your first language, but is your professional language, it can be even more challenging.

I help you to deliver an authentic, engaging and inspired performance.
Find your own voice in English.

Speak with confidence

  • Capitalise on your strengths to effectively enhance your presentation skills
  • Learn techniques of stage presence
  • Focus on clarity of language, timing, intention, posture and body language
  • Learn how to talk to and engage an audience with differing levels of understanding or experience
  • Develop as an inspiring communicator

For non-native speakers 

Would you like to appear as eloquent in English as you do in your own native language?

I help you to find your own voice and natural way of expressing yourself, so you increase your confidence and your impact.

We focus specifically on:  ease with the language, intonation, grammar, pronunciation, and any other support you need to convey your message with integrity, enthusiasm and natural flair.

HOW WE CAN WORK TOGETHER

Like actors, speakers need to be stage-worthy, know their material and establish trust in who they are and what they say.

By combining creative methods from the theater, with the vision of how people can get the best out of themselves, I help you to convey the essence of your message with integrity, enthusiasm and confidence.

SPEAK TO BE REMEMBERED

  • My session with Bonnie really inspired me.
    She helped me to take my presentation to the next level!
    She has such an open mind and an original approach to presenting, I loved it!

    -Marleine Brakenhoff. Trainee KPG Architects

  • After working with Bonnie I became national champion at Toastmasters humorous speech contest. 
    That should say enough.

    -Marcel Harmsen, Speaker & Comedian

  • Imagine a coach who is able to keep your thinking out of the box, spark your inner creativity, clear your cloudy thoughts and make you laugh every time it is needed. That is how I see Bonnie. After only a couple of sessions with her, I felt more confident to share my vision. It is much easier to present new ideas and get new business if your thoughts are translated into words. That is how Bonnie helped me and I'm sure she can help you too. 

    - Lubo Tomko, Experience Designer, Communication Strategist, Entrepeneur 

  • Bonnie's approach is experience oriented. She knows exactly which exercises people need to enable them to grow. Challenging and with clear feedback.

    -Jitske Kramer, The Culture Academy

  • Bonnie is a very enthusiastic and driven person, who is focused on getting the best out of people. To work with her is very valuable when you have to give an important presentation. With her passion for performance, she knows how to boost your presentation skills and helps you to perform at your best! 

    - Ernestine Telleman, Learning Specialist passionate about creativity & innovation

  • Working with Bonnie was wonderful and very energizing. She took the time to walk my colleague and I through our entire presentation giving us worthy feedback as we went along. Besides helping us with our storyline, Bonnie coached us on how we actually delivered the message. I would recommend Bonnie to anyone preparing for an important presentation or who wishes to improve their presentation skills in general. 

    -Johan Lentjes, Sales Executive

  • I was impressed with Bonnie's ability to bring out the best in people. 

    -B. Eslami, Global Head Regulatory Affairs, Vifor Pharma

  • I had the pleasure of working with Bonnie as coach for my TEDxAmsterdam Women talk in 2017 on healthy eating. I greatly appreciated her way of handling me, her directness (very un-American!), sense of humor and her tireless effort to help my message come to fruition. Our work together was very effective and great fun!

    - Eric van Furth, Clinical Director GGZ Rivierduinen Eating Disorders Ursula

  • Bonnie helps you to connect with and inspire others, build trust and be clear. Most importantly, Bonnie is a great listener and observer. She has an inviting way of coaching that helps you work on showing the best authentic version of yourself.

    -Frans Reichardt, The Client Listener, Professional Speaker & Trainer

  • Bonnie coached me in crystallizing my complex content into engaging messages and great interaction with the audience. The result was: a keynote address was turned into a great opportunity for an impactful moment to inspire people with the mission and move the agenda forward. Because my address was polished, concise, memorable, and highly authentic. 

    -Victor Neyndorff, Architect for customer & employee engagement and brand equity growth

  • "Bonnie gets people to discover new sides of themselves through her passion, humor, and friendly straightforwardness.”

    -E. Koops, Mgr. Business Processes

  • Bonnie helped me craft and practice a 5 minute pitch for my business to attract investors and customers. I found her approach to coaching to be constructive. We began by recording my pitch and then talking about both the overall structure of it and its message, as well as dissecting each line or part to ensure I was maximizing each word. I would work with her again in a heartbeat. 

    - Jane Palmer, Founder of Nature Coatings LLC
