Last week I won the best start-up pitch award presented by Dutch Optical Centre and I really feel indebted
to say thank you for your self-presentation course I followed. The award is an indication that you are a very good teacher
I must say. Thanks once again Gerben. [...] I actually applied all the principles you taught me and they worked perfectly.
The feedback I got from the audience was amazing and I mean I will feel guilty if I don’t say a thank you to you.

Often, presentation trainers work from their own specialty. Maybe they are a natural example on stage, or they can quickly relate to the challenges their trainees face or they teach from a clear and compelling method. The great thing about Gerben is that he can and will do all these things, depending on what the group needs. I have observed this with groups we trained together and experienced it when he trained me and my team. Great combination of skills with matching results!

Ik ken Gerben als een gedreven professionele trainer en acteur die altijd bezig is om zijn trainingen te vernieuwen. Hij is betrokken bij de mensen waar hij mee samenwerkt en traint en wil ze echt verder helpen met hun presentatievaardigheden en met name op het gebied van hoe zij zichzelf beter kunnen presenteren en het publiek kunnen meekrijgen. Het is prettig samenwerken met Gerben!

I don't know if the trainer had any experience on online presentations before, but I was really surprised
to see how easily he could switch the course, that was mainly taught for offline presentation, to give it online.
He was able to give specific advices for online presentations, besides of presentations in general. I really like the course.

Gerben has impressed me by showing the strong impact of simple techniques on the way you present.
In an approachable and relaxed manner he pushes you to the boundaries of your comfort zone, where he
shows you how a set of basic exercises can greatly improve the way you present yourself to others.

Door praktische, leuke oefeningen maakt hij je van de verschillende aspecten van communiceren zelfbewuster.
Zijn enthousiasme en onfeilbare gevoel voor lichte confrontatie zorgen dat je 'live' vooruitgang boekt.
Kortom een efficiente en leuke manier om veel over presenteren, en over jezelf te leren.
