How do you tailor the coaching to my job?
The content is based on your industry, your position and your specific tasks. If an important conversation is coming up, we can prepare and practise exactly that situation together.
Can I prepare specifically for presentations or negotiations in English?
Yes. We can work on a specific professional occasion: you practise expressing your ideas clearly, responding to questions and using the right phrases for your industry. Meetings or conversations with new business partners can be prepared in the same way.
What materials do you use in the coaching?
We mainly work with topics and documents from your working life – for example your personal introduction, upcoming presentations or typical conversations. On top of that come useful phrases, industry-specific vocabulary and small talk for business contacts.
What role does grammar play in the coaching?
My focus is on helping you speak freely and gain confidence. If a mistake affects comprehension or keeps recurring, we look at it specifically. Where needed, a short grammar exercise helps you use the right form with confidence.
How do you take cultural differences into account?
Communicating confidently takes more than the right vocabulary. We also look at how statements come across in different business situations – for example when disagreeing politely, in negotiations or in small talk with international contacts.
What equipment do I need for the online coaching?
You need a stable internet connection and a computer or tablet with a microphone and camera. For the sessions we can use Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Google Meet, for example.
