Hi Meredith,
Thank you for coaching me!

I experienced six sessions. Before I started the coaching course with you ( Meredith), I was very confused about my speaking, like how can I improve my speaking. Also I really feared to talk to other people who do not know Chinese and even I did not dare to go to shops, supermarkets an
d shopping mall alone. However, when I finished the first session with you ( Meredith), I tried to talk with my foreigner classmates, even though just a short conversation. You (Meredith) always were patient and encouraged me to speak more and. When I could not express myself well, you tried to guide me. Every time we finished the coaching course, I felt more confident and I was willing to speak more and speak with foreigners in English. In terms of writing, I always did not finished it in certain time. You tried your best to find my advances and problems in writing(advances: answering the question, having good grammar and good structure; problems: lower speed) and give me useful advices(speed copying). Also, you gave me some useful information, like the good place to study, entertain, travel. I know you made me more comfortable to live in Melbourne. Thank you so much! I would highly recommend my friends to invest in the coaching course that you (Meredith) make.

Best regards!

Before I started coaching sessions with Meredith I was experiencing so many changes in my life that made me lost confidence in myself. I had always been a very confident woman. However, when I moved to Australia from my home country Venezuela, after failing many times an English test I needed to approve to change my legal status from student to permanent resident, I started feeling that I was not good enough and that perhaps the goal that I had set for myself was impossible to reach. Not only this, but also homesickness was almost pushing me to quit.
I remember that in our first session we started working in the belonging feeling. By that time I felt that I belonged nowhere, because I did not belong to Venezuela anymore as I had left the country, but I did not belong to Australia either. I was also going out from a relationship and thought that I would no longer be able to find anyone else. Meredith helped me to find the way to start feeling that I belonged here and that no matter the obstacles, I would be able to sort them out. We worked with visualizations and affirmations, among other tools.
Although the path was not easy I was able to succeed in the IELTS English test. But more than that, during the process I started recovering the trust in myself. This has been the biggest growing process I have experienced in my whole life and Meredith was always there to help me to find the right answer. She never told me what to do, instead she led me to find out what was the best decision to make by myself.
After I passed the test I almost immediately obtained permanent residency (PR), then I got a professional job in a multinational company after having been working as a cleaner and waitress for more than a year. I also started a new relationship and all the pieces started to fit in. I could say that my life changed overnight but actually it was the result of some months of coaching sessions and hard work being now materialized.
The best outcome I have gotten from the coaching sessions is the way I have learnt to face problems. This is something that I will continue applying for the rest of my life, if at some point I feel that I need some coaching again, I will come back to Meredith again. I would also highly recommend to anyone who is struggling in any aspect of their life, to invest in the coaching with Meredith. For me, the benefits you can get are largely more valuable than the money and will always remain with you.

Thanks to you, I really appreciate your help and all the things you do in order to reach my goals.
More people like you is what the world needs, you’re amazing and always full of passion in whatever you do.
Believe me when I say you’re so special for me and it has been a pleasure to meet you.
I wish you the best.
Thanks for all the photos and materials you gave me.
Sincerely

I heard about Meredith in Latinpreneur group. I was looking for someone to help me with editing copy of my new website. They recommended Meredith because she helped some of them and the results were amazing. She helped me to edit my website copy and think about how to phrase what I wanted to say in English. Also, Meredith provided me with some guidelines to organize my work everyday and not fall down and collapse with overwhelm.
She was amazing support in this way

Dear Meredith,
I wanted to personally thank you for all the help you provided with the IELTS exam, of which I just received the marks.
As you can see below, I managed to get an overall mark of 8, with no less than 7 in any of the different modules, so well above the required scores. I wanted you to know that I consider those marks to be in direct correlation -and thanks to- your training session.

I wish to submit feedback on my experience with Meredith’s mentoring in preparation for my IELTS exam.

I did not book for a whole course as I did not have much time to prepare before the exam. After discussing the options available moving forward considering the time constraints, we made a plan that also suited our schedules and followed it through.

I am happy and proud to say that we did it! We attained more than 7.0 in almost all components of the IELTS exam (listening- 7.5, reading- 7.5, writing- 7.0, and speaking- 8.0). Since I last sat for the IELTS exam in 2018, my scores were as follows: listening- 6.5, reading- 6.5, writing- 6.5, and speaking- 7.0. My test scores went up by one band even with limited preparation time.

I am truly grateful and humbled by this. It is indeed a testimony of how amazing Meredith is and the difference she can make in the lives of others. She is very understanding, non-judgmental and encouraging in the way she mentored me. She saw potential in me and areas that I needed to work on. As a Christian, I would even say that I am very blessed to have such a wonderful mentor like her. Thank you so much for introducing us at just the right time when I really needed help. I have said it before and I will say it again – WE did it!

Thank you again, Best regards,Sereana Moi.

I had 5 sessions with Meredith. She didn’t just teach me English, she also helped me in converting my negative thoughts to positive and by the end of our sessions I could achieve what I waited for so long. I got my visa to stay in Australia.

Since completing coaching I feel more positive and empowered. Many thanks to Meredith. I would highly recommend “My Language My Story” coaching to anyone who wants to gain tools that they can use personally and professionally to improve in all aspects of life. One positive thought from the right person can really change life.

Re: I DID IT!!!!!!!!- THANK YOU SO MUCH – I will never forget your support. Hi Meredith, Finally, I did it!!!!!! – I passed the test. I got 6.5 in all skills! TO be honest I cannot believe it. I have been trying to get this for the last 4 years and now it is done. Now, I will be able to submit the application to get the PR. I am so happy right now.

Last but NOT least, I would like to say “THANK YOU” for supporting me and helping me to finally achieve the TEST.

Thanks & Regards,
Jose
