About Us

We are a unique mother-and-son consulting pair. While we are both highly skilled and articulate, we are very different in our approach and focus. By simultaneously analysing both content (Ilaria) and delivery (Robert), we provide you with insightful and immediately applicable feedback. Together, we design and teach original analytical models that help all our speakers become more aware of their speaking habits and the stylistic choices at their disposal.
