Balve has been a great public speaking mentor for me. I came to him with a request to make speaking in front of an audience less terrifying whilst also improving my delivery and how to communicate more clearly in general.

He asked all the right questions before providing advice and guidance and within 5 minutes of our conversation I felt more prepared for my next speaking opportunity.

He also reminded me to be kind to myself, reflecting Balve's balanced coaching methods and practical thinking.

I'd recommend him to anyone looking to improve their speaking and presenting skills as well as for general guidance and support.
