"Since 2003 till present I've been working as a chief accountant and then CFO. So acounting principles, finance and controlling are already in my background. So why decide to take your online coaching? The reason is that I'm Italian and for my career I need to study once again everything in English, in order to be able to explain every finance and accounting subject fluently and with the most correct vocabulary. Your coaching is really rich of opportunities of learning in different ways (reading, videos, charts, tests and so on), it's always so clear in explanations and for my purpose I can say that I've found it extremely useful!! Thanks and good accounting to everybody." - Maria L.
