Kodjoe.com 👈🏿 Je suis Togolais-Américain, j’ai appris à parler anglais couramment avec un accent américain par moi-même depuis que j’étais au Togo. Grâce à cela j’ai pu commencer à converser avec mes amis Américains dès mon arrivée aux USA en 2001. Cela m’a ouvert beaucoup de portes, et m’a permis de travailler dans une grande banque d’affaire à New York ainsi que dans un cabinet où nous étions un petit groupe à gérer environs deux milliards de dollars. Grâce à l’anglais, j’ai également pu lancer une entreprise aux Etats-Unis où j’ai investi une centaine de milliers de dollars de ma propre poche, levé des fonds auprès d’investisseurs américains et embauché des employés américains.

Aujourd’hui je suis coach d’anglais et j’aide les francophones à parler facilement anglais. Je donne des cours d’anglais sur Zoom aux francophones dans plus de 40 pays
