Boston Lessons

You can receive face to face sessions for Public Speaking, English Fluency, and Personal Communication Lessons.

The facility for Jon Dao – The Conversation Coach is accessible by taking the 200, 201, or 202 Bus from Quincy Center.

This makes it easy for clients in the Cambridge, Watertown, Allston-Brighton, and Somerville areas to receive in-person coaching sessions. This also means that if you live in any of the previously mentioned areas, Jon is willing to meet you at a location of your convenience around Boston.
