"That was awesome!! The conversation was entertaining and engaging. This group is more introverted, but you were very skillful in keeping them engaged despite their tendency to be quiet. Your style is compelling and drew the group in. I enjoyed watching you work skillfully with them despite this challenge. It was particularly impressive given that you were on Zoom!"

"I really appreciated the talk you gave for UConn today. This was fantastic and gave us a lot to think about. I liked that you formatted this as a conversation and shared your opinion and allowed students to share their opinions as well. I think it's great how you demonstrated that these are your personal pros/cons and that students might have different ones. I feel like there is much to be learned from your journey! We so appreciate you taking the time to speak with us!"

University of Alabama
"Irina did a phenomenal job at making a complicated topic digestible and easy to understand. We greatly appreciated the manner in which she conducted the session; mixing lectures with games and independent reflections ensured that the participants were actively engaged in the session, and I have yet to work with another facilitator who instituted such a structure with Irina's level of comfort and success. Personally, I appreciated the conciseness of the slides, which contained enough information for participants to follow along, but not so much that anyone becomes visually overwhelmed. Irina is extremely charismatic and knowledgeable!"
