Testimonial
In addition to providing language training in both Norwegian and English, she was pivotal to our learning journey and mastering the culture. We had various choices in terms of language learning, but Elizabeth was able to provide the cultural training that is essential to our positions.
My wife spent a significant amount of time working on etiquette, both in written and spoken English, and this preparation was key to comfortably and effectively hosting meetings and dinners with small and large groups of dignitaries and their spouses.
Likewise, I was able to achieve a nuanced understanding of the Norwegian culture by focusing on Norwegian phrases and mannerisms that prepare me for meetings with the media, dignitaries, and government officials.
The training we gained from Elizabeth continues to be a valuable resource and professional asset. Elizabeth was able to provide a robust and balanced learning environment due to her understanding of both cultures. It is without hesitation and with enthusiasm that I recommend Elizabeth as a teacher, trainer, or guide.
