I understand the challenges of working in a second language, and I'm here to help you!
Meet Katherine Ardizone, BS, MPA
I love what I do. I help people feel confident for speaking situations that can be very stressful. We start where you are and work together to make sure you are relaxed and ready for whatever scenario you face.
I founded USEP because I saw the need for support among international professionals when exceptional communication tactics in English are required. With more than 15 years of coaching experience, I am proud to have grown the business into one that offers a variety of services with proven results.

Meet our clients:
"Katherine's presentation was a real eye-opener. Her style is engaging and informative. Her directive for improving the effectiveness of presentations will no doubt be invaluable to our mission. This would be an excellent component to any professional training, particularly for people in the scientific community who tend to present information without much consideration for delivery. Well done!"
