I have learned that people will forget
what you said,
people will forget
what you did
but
people will never forget
how you made them feel.

VALERIE

Dear Eric, it was a pleasure to have lessons with you.To be honest, at the beginning I was a little scared to have them via video due to a previous bad experience. However, I have changed my mind and now I think this is an efficient way of training. Due to your human skills, you had the ability to quickly detect how to leverage my motivation. Thanks for all the advice, tools, useful links and places you gave me to further encourage my confidence. All my best wishes for success in your future adventure.

I had a wonderful with Eric to learn through experience the type of meditation he practices and teaches. His soothing energy and clear explanations made for a transforming experience. He is an artist as well as a healer. I would love to experience a session working with painting. He is open and loving and does the work himself. He clearly has personally gone through much growth and transformation and has very healing views about suffering. We all should make time to learn from Eric about experiencing more peace in our lives.

I met Eric shortly after moving to LA form Arizona. He immediately made me feel welcome and helped me out tremendously. Eric is very comfortable with himself, which makes everyone around him feel more comfortable. I was blown away by Eric’s boldness and zest for fearlessly stepping into the unknown. Eric is a great listener and is genuinely interested in others. His advice when dealing with seemingly impossible situations is always uplifting and spot on. Eric is very centered, real, grounded and always comes from an honest, loving place.

Eric est une personne aux nombreuses qualités dont la richesse des échanges, l'écoute, la bienveillance, le souci du détail et la constance en font un enseignant d'une valeur inestimable.J'ai initialement pris des cours avec lui afin de renforcer mes acquis, accroitre la qualité de mon expression orale mais aussi diversifier, étendre les possibilités associées à cette passionnante langue qu'est l'anglais. Je sors d'une série de leçons motivé, plus attentif et nourri de références, idées et pistes depuis lesquelles je peux continuer à travailler. Merci pour tout Eric et j'espère avoir la chance de réitérer cette expérience tant elle fut gratifiante !

I wholeheartedly recommend BBD! The training method is specially developed to be in line with the aspirations and capacities of its students. It fosters optimal growth. In four words, BBD is: adaptable; challenging; goodwilled; and cheerfully communicative! Oups that’s five. 😊 I thank my teacher Eric for his support. Every day, I am growing and gaining self-confidence!

CÉCILE

Hello Eric, I wanted to inform you about the results of the TOEIC exam: I got 990/990.:) Thank you again!!

SUSAN

Eric has a superior gift for understanding human energy and spirit. Eric is a perfect person for someone who simply needs the confidence of a professional who listens deliberately and caringly and someone who constructs an innovative insightful way that offers encouragement and motivation.

DAVID

Eric is incredibly inspiring. The positive energy has always been enlightening. His penetrating questions that demanded deep and thought provoking answers helped me rethink my approach to all. His ability to listen is unlike anyone I've know. Sincere, real and calm. When I think of Eric, I think about the word "calm."

PATRICIA

Je suis très contente d’être suivi/accompagnée par Eric de BBD, pour mon apprentissage de la langue anglaise. Eric, très pédagogue, professionnel et sérieux est toujours disponible et à l’écoute de ses élèves et sait nous donner l’envie d’en apprendre plus sur cette langue qui est si importante de nos jours. Merci beaucoup pour toute votre énergie et accompagnement 😊 Que dire de BBD? Moderne, ludique, complet et simple. Je recommande *****

NICK

Eric is able to look at things with a refreshingly different perspective; an unadulterated view. As a result, he has always had the ability to see right to the core of issues and present a distilled answer that moves the discussion forward with the least amount of effort and distraction. It is a gift to be able to do so.

MELAMIE

Après un rapide diagnostique de vos besoins, Éric sait mettre en confiance, trouver des sujets d’intérêt qui vous incite à parler, et vous corrige toujours gentiment. Ses cours sont motivants, l’homme est intéressant donc au final la progression est réelle.

CORINNE

Eric is great. With him, I learned and progressed without stress. His methods were always interesting. Futhermore, he was a gentleman who helped me whenever I needed support. I wish that everybody has the chance to study with someone so professional.

OLIVIER

Eric is a truly talented teacher. Online courses are always very efficient. He knows how to put you at ease and lets you talk while staying focused on a theme covered during the session. Without being academic, he corrects you in an attentive and caring manner. In short, no blocking. And from session to session, progress comes with a lot of pleasure and without the impression of a constrained framework, yet the methodology is there, without a doubt! Discussion groups with other "students" are good opportunities to share viewpoints and also practice. As a French doctor who needs to maintain his practice, I am particularly satisfied with the method and the seriousness which undoubtedly makes me more confident and fluent when I have to examine patients in English. I can only recommend BBD!

NICOLAS

J'ai pris beaucoup de plaisir à échanger et parfaire mon niveau d'Anglais avec Éric - toujours une touche d'humour et l'amour de la langue, à la recherche de l'expression la plus juste.
Il m'a notamment aidé à la rédaction de mes e-mails de suivi commercial pour plus de justesse et de rythme.
Véritable masterpiece qui me sert régulièrement de référence.
Merci, Éric !
