Annemarie
I believe English confidence and fluency are possible for everyone—even the shyest English speakers. And I believe anyone can speak English without fear, without feeling stuck.
Sure, mistakes might still happen. But they won’t cause embarrassment. And yes, it takes hard work and commitment. But it is 100% possible.
I’m crazy passionate about confidence and fluency and it’s my mission to help people achieve both, for work and daily life in English. They are the hardest to get in language speaking and I see that as an opportunity. I’m excited to make confidence and fluency a reality for my students through education, motivation, and my community.
Now about job interviews. I have a fun fact for you. In my career, I’ve been been a director in two organizations. I had the opportunity and responsibility to interview and hire employees. As a result, I know exactly why interviewers ask specific questions and what they’re really looking for.
I share all this inside knowledge in the Confident Job Interviews course.
Take the next step.
Share your example answer or your ‘aha’ moment below.

Hi Annemarie, do you have a course about leadership and professional communication? I’m someone who’s been in the US for 14 years and received my masters and PHD in the US. I work at a research institution, and I think there is still a lot to improve in my spoken communication (to communicate more clearly and confidently). I could do a research presentation at a conference or a job talk with lots of preparations, but I find that I need improvement with daily communication where I have to speak and sound smart mores spontaneously: to lead team meetings, speaking up… Read more »

Thanks a lot for your support Annemarie, what option do you suggest if I don’t have previous experience with the jobs that I would like to apply..
Dear Annemarie, thank you for the interesting lesson, and for the precious advices on how to confidently answer the always stressing first question! I would like to receive your kind opinion on my response. “Throughout my career in Rhythmic Gymnastics I had the pleasure to be the Head coach in my former Italian Club of a well motivated group of coaches, working to establish the discipline and achieving medals and results. That led me to the position of Technical director in my region which I held for 8 years. I was reelected twice and the feedback I received were great… Read more »
Well done, Pamela. I’m impressed with how much you were able to share in just 3 paragraphs. You have an excellent way of expressing yourself. You’ve perfectly followed the past, present, and future formula. And I was glad to see you explain some of the good feedback you received while in the position of Technical Director. Interviewers always appreciated specific details. Moreover, the fact that you were reelected twice is compelling. It says a lot about the confidence others had in you. I like the way you handled being away from the role for some time after moving to the… Read more »
It was very useful information. It become much easier for me to formulate my answer to this question, even on my native language. Now when I know the formula I am calm when I have to answer and I do not loose my line of thought.
I’m so glad to hear this, Kamelia!!
Thank you Annemarie for your good support!I really appreciate your lessons. Now I am preparing for operations officer job interview. The answer for tell me about your self question is: For the last 5 years ,I have been walking as administration and logistics in different projects. I have been walking as logistic officer. In that position,I was responsible for providing all logistical support to ensure timely completion of activities.I was also assigned to do budget for all materials needed including estimation of travel allowances of employees, managing project materials and suppliers and I had the opportunity to brought a less… Read more »
Hi Yvonne, thank you for sharing your practice answer. You’ve done a nice job providing a broad overview of your experience along with the past, present, and future focus.
One note, I consistently see the verb ‘walk’ but I think you meant ‘work’ – is that right?
We could simplify the first two sentences by combining them, for example:
For the last 5 years, I’ve been working as a logistics officer on different projects.
The way you define KEFL and the Right to Play project is very helpful. It gives a clear picture of the specific projects you’re working on.
Thank you Annemary for sharing video on this topic. It’s was important for my, becouse I found example to introduce myself in my first interview landscape design specialty. I went to it with more confidence after preparation
You’re very welcome, Khrystia. I’m glad it helped you have more confidence.
Sure Thank you, Annemarie, for taking the time to meet with me. I’m Sajjad, an Iraqi pharmacist. I spent the last 8 years sharing my sales and marketing skills at the largest and most innovative medical companies in Iraq. I’ve developed a reputation for understanding what our clients want and staying right on budget. In my current role, I’d say my greatest strength is connecting with people. When our clients communicate their needs, I truly hear what they want, and I work tirelessly to find the solution that matches their needs. As a result, we have increased client retention by… Read more »
Hi AnneMarie I´m Jacqueline , Could you please take a look for my “tell me about yourself” response and tell me your advice: Over the past 17 years I have collaborated and led the assigned teams for internal or external IT customer projects and acting as a servant leader to remove obstacules and solving issues, problems and conflicts I´ve also worked to implement the processes and methods to improve the organizational maturity in all levels of the organization and also to improve the adherence to the quality standards of the company I took on the roles of experienced project manager, Portfolio manager and… Read more »
Hi Jacqueline, you have a strong start here. I can see you’ve thought carefully about the details and that you’re applying the past-present-future approach. Your quantitative data are particularly compelling with the number of projects you’ve managed, the budget, and cost savings. There is a LOT of detail here. With the variety of questions that will be asked during the interview, I’m certain you’ll be able to speak to each experience, skill, and strength you’ve highlighted here. For example, most job interviews include a question about your strengths. With that question, you could certainly highlight your customer service skills, support… Read more »
I searched a lot for courses to learn English, a lot of teachers, all of them are wonderful, but as soon as I watched your first video, I immediately knew that it was the right one for me. I do not know how to express now everything I want to say, but I think that after the end of the course I will talk a lot about this course. Thank you very much
Thank you for the kind comment, Kamel. I’m pleased to know my lesson was so helpful to you.
Annemarie, Since last 25 years I was searching a trainer who really teaches/ talks about professional, practical and powerful English , which makes difference and distinguish us from others, I had almost lost the hope that there is any learning platform which can teach real practical too the point and professional English which can transform our life from Zero to hero, I am from that geography where a master degree holder also can’t speak a basic english and I have studied in government schools where even english teacher can’t pronounce English in correct way. I think the most merciful almighty… Read more »
I’ve spent the last 2 years to accomplish the Master of Public Health degree with Massey University. In the final year, I luckily got in and completed my placement with Nelson Marlborough Health – Public Health Unit. That was an incredible opportunity for me to gain a broad and solid understanding of not only public health system but also primary healthcare and Non-Government Organizations. During the placement, I conducted a service improvement project to improve sexual health services for young people in the region. More impressively I’ve completed my thesis with an article about intimate parent violence and mother and… Read more »
Hello Annemarie! Thanks for your amazing and helpful video! I’m truly glad to know about your channel and website. you make me feel motivated to keep sharpening my English. So let’s start I’ve spent 3 years sharpening my design skills in content creation among other things, these include creativity, innovation capacity, learning by doing, and collaboration in my recent work expertise as a digital creator content freelance. In my current role, I’d say my greatest strength is connecting with people when our clients communicated their needs, I truly hear what they want and I work tirelessly to find the design… Read more »
Hi Mile, thank you so much for the kind comment. I’m pleased to know this was so helpful. And you’ve shared a wonderful example with a clear past-present-future focus! Your vocabulary is sharp and well-chosen. Your second paragraph is particularly intriguing because not only does it highlight your particular skillset but it’s also a skillset a potential employer would be interested in. For that reason, I would recommend that you follow it with a quick example and remove the paragraph “In fact, I would like to highlight…” I assume information about your online courses is on your resume, which is… Read more »
Hello Annemarie, I am so glad to meet your website. I believe this is an inflection point in my English path to really improve my speaking confidence. I am very motivated by your free lessons, and I will keep going to reach my confidence! Also, I wanted to share my “tell about yourself”: Over the past 8 years, I´ve worked as an electronic engineer in 2 main sectors, telecommunications and electrical. In both, I had the opportunity to introduce myself to data analysis. For example, I was responsible for analyzing non-technical losses in a region’s power transmission lines In one year,… Read more »
Bravo, Carolina! You’ve got a good start to the ‘tell me about yourself’ interview starter.
It is particularly compelling to see some quantitative information: “… we managed to lower the loss indicator by around 3%.”
I do have 1 question. Could you clarify what you mean by ” I had the opportunity to introduce myself to data analysis?” I want to be sure I understand that correctly. Typically we only use “introduce” with people.
I’d love to provide more feedback after having that clarification.
I am an electronics engineer who focuses on designing hardware. I have experience for over 3 years as an R&D engineer and then I was promoted to product manager in the Physics department in EEI company. In this role, I managed 20 workers of the factory and staff. and I led the process of producing different equipment for equipping the physics laboratories in the school and university. Going forward, in addition to building and improving on my current skillsets, I’d like to take a leadership role and develop my team to better serve your product center. That’s why I am… Read more »
Hi Annemarie,
Thank you for your fantastic and very helpful videos.
When describing your present role in the tell me about yourself question, how do you approach the present if you are not currently working?
Thank you very much!
Hi Alba,
I address this fully inside my Confident Job Interviews. There are many options when explaining why you’re not working right now. The key is to be honest because the interviewer will ask. If it’s for personal reasons, you do not need to go into detail but you do need to address the reality that you’re not working and, instead, other things you’ve been doing in the meantime. For example, perhaps you’ve completed some professional development courses to maintain or sharpen your skills.
Thanks Annemarie for this and your other videos, just listen you speak with that clarity when you pronounce each word, made me feel that speak English could with fluency can be possible. I’ve been having some interviews and I feel that my communication skills in English have not let me nail a new job yet in the accounting field, even when I have the qualifications. I’ll have a new interview this coming week and hopefully this time can be better. Here it is my response: I spent 6 years sharpening my accounting, financial and analytical skills at Deloitte Touché El… Read more »
Hi Karen,
First of all, I wish you much success in the interview this week. Please let me know how it goes.
Secondly, you did a great job using the past-present-future formula and provided a big picture overview of your background and skillsets. This will help the interviewer better determine questions to ask for more information.
One recommendation is to double-check your verb tenses. I see “In 2015, I have the opportunity…” — to have is the present simple tense, which suggests this is true now. However, 2015 is the past.
All my best, Annemarie
Hi Anne Marie! I’m Milena from Venezuela since I started to watch your videos I finally found someone who support me to be confindent. I decided to apply for a bilingual role so this video has been too helpful for me
I’m so happy to know this video was helpful to you, Milena! And I wish you much success as you go through the application and interview process. Let me know how it goes.
Knowing why it is commonly asked in interviews along with a simple formula on how to answer this question gives me a whole new approach on how to properly answer this question. I never thought that you can already share a brief information on what your strengths are. It definitely will give you an edge and confidence at the start of the interview.
I’m about to have an interview and will apply what I have learned on the free quick class. Will update you on how it goes.
Awesome, Cleofe! I’m to hear this lesson gave you a new perspective on why interviews start this way and how to approach the answer. I’m eager to hear how things go in the interview!

In my current role is that I’ve been working as a student counsellor by part-time at… Read more »
Hey Soko, I’m glad to know this is what you were looking for. And you’ve got a strong start with the answer you shared here. I can see how you’ve utilized that past, present, and future formula. And I appreciate the concrete examples of designs you’ve created.
I have one question for clarification.
You mentioned that a strength “is connecting with a creativity people.”
Do you mean that you connect to creative people (for example, artists)?
Or do you mean you connect to people in a creative way?
Dear Annemarie, You and your videos are wonderful, My name is Sherif and I am from Egypt Unfortunately, I still struggling due to my English skills level which is not satisfying me at all, But I try hard to improve it by watching very professional people like you Kindly revise my tell me about yourself answer below and will be glad to know your comments For the last 17 years, I have been sharpening my management skills, as well as deepening my knowledge of Front office management.

Thanks indeed for this prolific masterclass! You did provide me with a broader perspective, and I simply appreciate it!
Dear Annemarie, thank you for your Masterclass, that was the best one I have seen in the last two years. Now I am in the middle of the job search process, with several unsuccessful interviews behind me. After the MC, the hiring process became easier and I realized my mistakes. For the last 10 years, I have been sharpening my management skills, as well as deepening my knowledge of intellectual property law. I have developed a reputation for legal support of company projects. In my current role, I’d say my greatest strength is connecting to people. When our clients or… Read more »
Hello Natalia, First, I apologize for my late response. I’ve been away from the office while moving across the country. Thank you for your patience in my reply. Secondly, I’m very glad to hear this masterclass was helpful to you and I hope you’ll feel more confident going into your next interviews. Your example answer here is truly spectacular and a great example for others to follow. You’ve followed the past-present-future formula with clear examples and qualitative data, which is particularly compelling. Your answer is concise yet full of details an interviewer would likely follow up on with questions to… Read more »
Your tutorials are excellent, I really enjoy viewing them.
I hope to see more videos from you.
Best regards
Thank you so much.
Hello Annemarie! < First of all: Many thanks for sharing with us your knowledge <3 > Here is my answer: Throughout my career, I have developed my passion for the customer services and sales fields. I like to interact with people, so, as a business executive, I found a way to help people grow their companies and do business simultaneously. Currently, I´m a Team Leader in a chain of fast-food restaurants in Stockholm, Sweden. My current functions have been important to me because they helped me to improve my soft skills: how to handle difficult clients, but also how to… Read more »
Hi Annemarie.
I am so I interested in your training videos.Your help is really valuable.
What you do for us the non-native English speakers, is a treasure!
I have already posted my aha moment about myself.
I hope I’ve done well my homework and gave good impression to my interviewers.
Best regards
Hi Akrivi, thank you so much for the kind comment! I’m pleased to know my lessons are so helpful to you. And thank you for the note about posting your aha moment plus your practice answer.
As I entered this industry,I served my internship in aircrafts ground handling and started my career as a cabin crew member,then I became a travel consultant. During my 11yrs career as a Travel consultant I had to deal with different types of people daily. I’ve learned to stay focus and work hard to find solution that match their needs.Built my sales and negotiating skills while managing air tickets and a variety of bookings. As a result, I’ve accived to become a Corporate Travel consultant,organizing conferences and managing VIP& Business travels as I pay attention to details and give priority to… Read more »
Hi Akrivi,
I can see you’ve done a nice job following the past-present-future formula here with some key language such as “during my 11 years…” “currently” and “going forward.” These words provide nice links from one sentence to the next and highlight that formula.
One note, in the first sentence, I would recommend being clear about which industry you entered. Also, it sounds like you want to use “When I entered this industry…” as opposed to as. When signifies the time you started.
Best regards, Annemarie
Hi Annemarie, I have a zoom interview next week and I consider myself a lucky one to find your wonderful video in this time. Would you please give me your feedback about my answer to ” Tell me about yourself” Thanks in advanced. “As an administrator and support staff, I tend to focus on connecting to people to develop my customer service, paying attention to details and sharpening my skills. Throughout my 8 years of experience, I’ve developed a reputation for understanding what the students and the clients want and how I can play a vital role to enable them… Read more »
Hi Amna, thank you for practicing your response! I just replied to your example on YouTube. 😊
This was my first lesson in your course, it i found it very helpfull and i will complete the whole course, thank you. My answer will be “Currently I am home with my kids, but earlier I worked in a school as a receptionist It was a great experience to deal with different people daily and challenge myself to stay focused even when I have too many tasks to finish correctly. Now, I’m interested to work with you because i think it will be a great opportunity to enter the work market again and the right place to build my… Read more »
Hi Annemarie, Your video has been so helpful and I really thank you. This is my example: I’m an electrical engineer with a core background in IT Project management and a strong technical problem-solving ability. Over the past 3 years, I’ve been working as a Digital Health Manager, developing and deploying digital solutions for diabetes care and treatment. While I was performing this role, the company released a digital health platform that contained several IT projects where I was managing, leading the software team members, and creating IT business solutions. Currently, I’ve been looking for new challenges in all IT… Read more »
Wow, fantastic, Javier! I can clearly see the past-present-future formula and you succinctly sum up your professional experience in a way that is compelling. It makes me want to ask more questions, which is exactly what you want. Nicely done.
Hi Annemarie your video is perfect and it came at a perfect time when I am looking forward to an interview.
I’m so glad to hear that. I wish you much success on your upcoming interview.
First of all, thank you for this class. Here is my answer. Currently, I am at home with my younger son, but earlier I was the institutional coordinator of Erasmus+ and CEEPUS programmes at this university. Since I entered this position, I was responsible for management of these programmes from the application until the final report. The measurable result of my efforts was that in my first year the university reached 74% in the new Erasmus+ evaluation system, and the next year this was 82%. Meanwhile I collaborated with two professors to accomplish new CEEPUS Networks leading this university. There… Read more »
Thank you for sharing your practice answer, Monika. I can see you using the past-present-fruture formula here and your quantitative details are very useful.
One recommended change: “Since I entered this position, I was responsible for management of these programmes from the application until the final report.” –> The word “Since” implies that you still work in this job. But it sounds like this was a position you had in the past. Is that right?
If so, I recommend using ‘while.’ You could say, “While in this position, I was responsible for…”
Hello there annemarie excelent your video want speak with confident
You’re so welcome, Nohemi! I’m glad it was useful.
Thank You very much for your great and clear information.
Hello, Annemarie. Here’s my answer to the question “TEll me about yourself”, following the Past, Present, Future formula. I’d love to hear your feedback: I’m a Brazilian English teacher who focuses on helping students to improve their communication skills. I love seeing my students getting more confident about their English and achieving their goals. I’ve taught English for over six years and I’ve been running my own business as an online and private teacher. I’ve taught more than 150 students all over Brazil and in other countries, as Portugal and the U.S. I’m passionate about helping students succeed, which is… Read more »
I’d like to thank you, Annemarie, for such a great opportunity. I have seen myself through the eyes of a recruiter and understood all my mistakes. This request – “Tell me about yourself” – I always found it so annoying and really didn’t understand what to say… Now, thanks your master-class, I see the opportunity in it.
Thank you ones again for your help! Wish you all the best!
Hi Annemarie, your explanations are very clear and useful ! I am happy to meet you.:) I would like to continue my career in Europe; I have been checking the jobs but couldn’t apply for any because I don’t feel confident enough. I want to practice first, then I will evaluate suitable options. I will share my example with you but I am worry about “my present part”. I am not working at the moment; I was laid off around two years ago and I want to start working now. I don’t want this situation to be seen like disadvantage.… Read more »
Hi Annemarie, thank you for the great presentation.
Here is my response; Over the past 10 years of Accounts and admin officer i built up strong skills ,qualities and experiences in variety of different situations that’s mean I always perform my duties differently. In my previous role i enjoyed collaborating with other accountancy member and bookkeepers to ensure accounts are completed and submitted on time. I am interested in this position because i will be able to use the skills and experience that i already have and i will be encouraged to continually improve and develop.
Hi Annemarie, here’s my response and wondering if this might be too short: I have over 10 years of administrative experience where I’ve had the opportunity to gain a varied skill set. During this time, I’ve noticed I’m most engaged when I’m doing tasks of a meticulous nature – like file auditing, compiling reports, and writing procedures. Which is probably why I decided to go into web development as my most recent experience. I’ve essentially worked though a queue doing hundreds of web edits and build-outs on websites. Now I’m looking to use my strength as an extremely detail-oriented person… Read more »
Hi Lauren,
Not at all! In fact, we would say this is concise, which is highly valued in English communication. When someone is concise it means they are able to say a lot (or say everything necessary) in a few words. You’ve done that well here.
The one recommendation I have would be to highlight a few examples of the varied skills you’ve acquired in the last 10 years.
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. This is my answer: I’m interested in this position because I’m a very organized person who enjoys solving problems and helping others, with the capacity to do many things simultaneously and improve or optimize processes. I’ve been getting skills even not related to my job positions through the past fifteen years. That is because I’m a proactive person looking to stay one step ahead. For instance, in my work at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, I did my best not only as a Coordinator but as a Personal Assistant. There, I… Read more »
Well done, Karina! You’ve done an excellent job using the past-present-future formula and provided great detail in just a few sentences.
One recommendation: “I’ve been getting skills even not related to my job positions through the past fifteen years.”
Rather than “getting skills” we tend to use:
Any of these would work well.
Hi Annemarie, I enjoyed your masterclass a lot and it was super helpful to create my answer. Here it goes… I have taught at different levels for the last 10 years, from courses and workshops to teaching in college. In my home country Venezuela, I instructed theater workshops for low-income communities to encourage them to develop essential soft skills such as communication, confidence, emotional intelligence, and self-awareness. My most recent experience as an educator was teaching online students of all ages from several countries in Latin America. I’m passionate about inspiring people to achieve their goals and that’s why I… Read more »
Well done, Laura! This is both detailed and concise, which English speakers appreciate. If I may, there is one suggestion I have. In the last sentence, you say, ” I’m passionate about inspiring people to achieve their goals and that’s why I would like to get this job.” Is there something about the company or the job position that indicates they are also passionate about inspiring people? What about the specific job are you most excited about? The reason I ask is I’m trying to get a specific detail that is unique to the company or the job description. The sentence,… Read more »
Hello Annemarie, thank you for so much information! I’m learning from you all the time and I just love it! This is my “tell me about yourself” Over the 20 years, I’ve been developing my analytical thinking skills while working in international companies. It’s taught me how to efficiently plan and organize my own work to meet business goals. In my current role, I am responsible for Financial planning and analysis for Mall Management. I collaborate within the company’s finance organization, which provides senior management with a forecast of the company’s profit and loss and operating performance for the upcoming… Read more »
This is very well done, Mine, and you’ve perfectly followed the past, present, future formula. Doing so provides a lot of clarity with an easy-to-follow structure in English. You also demonstrated strong grammar skills with tenses such as, “I’ve been developing…” Your answer was very detailed and it was helpful to know how your forecasting is used by management. It shows that your data and analysis help support the company’s success. Excellent job overall. One small change I would make is, “Over the _____ 20 years…” There’s a little word missing here that indicates the past up to now. Any… Read more »
AnnMarie, thank for giving me a helping hand with the interview lesson. I’m having my interview in April and for sure, I will prepare myself for the interview using your advices/tips. 💓
I would also like to say that it is very pleasant to hear you speaking. I can understand everything you say.
Hugs and kisses from Poland 😘
Hi Agatha, thank you so much for the kind comment. I’m happy to know this lesson was helpful to you and I wish you much success in your interview! You definitely have a lot of time to prepare and I’m certain you’ll do well.
Hello Anne, I’m glad to watch your sessions, Certainly you are “the best teacher”. Nowadays, I’m started watching more and more native speakers videos to get fluent in English. I have spent these many years without a well practicing and even now I’m not practicing at all but listening all the expert videos. My wish is I want to be fluent in English and wanted to communicate as a native speaker. Your teaching methodology is sensational and you are my role model :). “Tell me about yourself” This video really helps me to deliver myself clearly to the interviewers in… Read more »
Hi Yamini,
Thank you so much for the kind comment. I’m happy to know that my lessons and methodology are so helpful to you!
I do offer a course called Fluency School, which is 100% focused on helping students think more clearly in English and express themselves with fluency. You can learn more about it here: Fluency School.
Hi Annamarie! I’m very pleased to find your lessons. As a teacher and as a mother of 7 (seven🙂) children without much study-time, your videos helps me to improve my english and to be confident….
Thank you!
Hi Shorena, thank you so much for the comment and, even more, thank you for taking time in your busy schedule to watch my lessons!!
Hi there , this is Zahra ( in English it means rose) from Egypt, a teacher of English. Yesterday, I was surfing YouTube about future tense , then I came across a video by Annmarie, oh Mam! You have such a captivating speech style😍😍. Believe it or not , by the end of the day, I got a phone call for an interview, which is after 10 hours from now, as usual I was nervous and I told myself I’ll be rejected, so I’ll keep my focus on studying grammar and opened your YouTube channel to find your videos about… Read more »
Hi Zahra, I’m so pleased to know my lessons have been useful to you! And I’m eager to hear how the interview went.
Hello Annemarie, congrats, your content is amazing! Below my answer, actually I have an interview this friday: Over the past six years I’ve been working in fleet management. I started as an analyst and I got two promotions, so I have full knowledge of all steps of the process. In my current position , my main responsibility is to guide the team to offer a great service to our internal customers by solving problems and improving processes. My greatest qualities are a very clear communication and a great ability to build a powerful network. For example, a colleague who have… Read more »
Well done, Barbara! This was an excellent example of the past-present-future formula when responding to this interview starter! I was particularly impressed with, “My greatest qualities are a very clear communication and a great ability to build a powerful network. For example, a colleague who have worked with me 10 years ago sent me this job position.”
This says a lot about you that a colleague recommended you for the position.
How did the interview go?
