Instructor Details

Elmira Strange

My name is Elmira Strange, and I am Motivational Psychologist and Certified Life Coach. I am passionate about working with students who want to learn about Psychology, Psychotherapy and working with people (coaching).
My previous work involved Research Psychology and Lecturing at University (UK).
The unusual bit: I was born in Northern Kazakhstan (where it's freezing cold in winter -40C and really hot summers +40C), then moved to Moscow, Russia, and finally to London, UK.
The interesting bit: I had a life-saving surgery and near-death experience in 2012. The near-death experience made me realise that we are here to share our knowledge, help each other, and enjoy this life.
My interests: Psychology, Motivation
My previous experience: Whilst I was working at University (Wales, UK) as a Senior Researcher and Psychology Lecturer (prior to Udemy), my focus was on 'Researching Stress in Families of Disabled Children' where I had to learn what makes people stressed and unhappy.
Since 2006 I am working as an 'online entrepreneur': writing blogs and books, creating YouTube videos, and now 'teaching online' which has become my true passion. In my Udemy courses I combine my extensive knowledge of 'online entrepreneurship' and my passion for MotivationalPsychology, Coaching, and Psychotherapy.

For a beginner like myself, Elmira is making so much sense. I love the explanation she gives in simple terms.

It is understandably worth the price and basic given the price and outline. It's purpose is to totally start from scratch which is good for me - but I would welcome more intellectually challenging tasks and information going forward or perhaps to elaborate on this - perfect for a quick step 1.

Solid introductory course!

By Suzanne Haylett on 10/14/2020

Very good choice. I am a registered naturopath for the last 20 years and dealing with patients where the root cause of their illness or disease is an deep seated emotional problem. Counselling them on how to deal and work through the emotional issues open up the pathway for healing.

This course was very much easy to understand and an individual can gain a good amount of knowledge from this course. Proper notes with definitions are provided in this course which makes it very much interesting for an individual to complete this course.

I enjoyed it. Elmira explains things very clearly and I found it very useful especially the parts of the first session, CBT and online therapy.

By Jacqueline Seelal on 8/19/2020

I talk to people all day and have been told that I'm a good listener so I thought why not take a course to see if this is where I would like to go in my career. So far the instruction seems to be what I'm looking for.
