Real. Clear. Path.
Flat-Fee Financial Planning & Business English Negotiation
Traditional schools have completely failed us by skipping basic financial literacy.
Standard grammar lessons from big-box English schools will never teach you how to read a room or close a deal. They are in the student retention business. I am in the real-world education business
I build simple, honest financial plans charged strictly by the hour or as a flat fee, meaning I earn zero product commissions. Alongside that, I train international professionals to speak in English with the true authority, presence, and psychology needed to command any business environment. No corporate sales pitches. Just real, clear paths forward.
Our Services
1. Flat-Fee Financial Planning & Advice
Unbiased financial consulting charged strictly by the hour or as a flat fee. I do not sell investment products, mutual funds, or insurance, which means I earn zero commissions. You get honest, independent strategic blueprints to organize your money, manage cash flow, and protect your capital.
2. Business English, Negotiation & Sales Skills
I take highly skilled international professionals and teach them how to confidently speak, negotiate, and communicate in a Global English environment. No generic grammar lessons, just the practical communication and sales strategy you need to navigate deals and command a room.
Hey, I’m Larry, the founder of Real Clear Path. I don’t teach from textbooks, and I don't give generic, corporate advice. Everything I share with my clients comes from paths I have physically walked myself. I spent over 29 years operating at the highest levels of the financial machine, acting as a senior bank VP, an investment bank partner, Vice President for a prominent Vancouver venture capital firm, advising high-growth startups, and a Director at an investment news corporation. I know exactly how the financial system works, and, more importantly, how it fails you.
Traditional schools completely skip basic money management, and the financial industry is packed with commission-driven brokers who prioritize product sales over honest guidance.
But my path didn't stop in North America. I packed up and moved to Brazil, landing in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo without a network. I had to self-start from scratch. I had to pass grueling national credentialing exams like ANCORD in a non-native environment, build a business, and eventually co-found an ESL school in São Paulo.
That shift changed everything for me. I saw firsthand how brilliant, highly intelligent international professionals, executives, and even air traffic controllers struggle to express their true capabilities because of subtle communication gaps. It isn't a grammar problem; it’s a presence and negotiation problem. If you can't speak with authority and read the unspoken psychology of a room, you lose opportunities, whether you're navigating a North American boardroom or managing high-stakes international operations. Real Clear Path exists because I walked away from the bureaucratic corporate machine to offer absolute transparency. Whether I am building a conflict-free financial blueprint to protect your capital or training you to command a room in a global English environment, you are getting raw, battle-tested strategy from someone who has actually done it.
No politics. No fluff. Just real, clear paths forward.
Elite Training, Not Traditional Language Lessons
Experienced Corporate Leadership + Formal TEFL Certification.
Most business English programs are run by traditional language teachers who have never spent a single minute inside a real corporate boardroom. They focus on tedious grammar rules that don't help you under pressure. My training is entirely different.
I spent nearly three decades managing high-stakes wealth and leading teams across international markets. To ensure the highest possible standards for my clients, I backed up my real-world corporate experience with formal TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language Certification). You Aren’t getting schoolbook vocabulary.
You are getting raw, battle-tested communication architecture led by a certified professional who understands corporate dynamics, expectations, and high-pressure negotiation.
