    About me

    Is your CV is impressive, but your voice is not?


    I work with Executives, Project Managers, Designers, Producers, Medical Professionals, and more, to be authorities in their field. I also train rising professionals on how to interview with confidence. My name is Annie, an American from Chicago, now living in Europe.


    With a background in Project Management, People Ops, Corporate Communication, and Scientific Research, I can help you harness your professional identity.


    My sessions build your confidence through trust and comfort, not pressure. You might even have fun! I don't use cookie-cutter lesson plans; my preparation is 100% tailored to your immediate needs, whether that’s working on a presentation you need to deliver soon, or learning how to handle small-talk with coworkers:


    • Presentations, Pitches & Negotiations - Bring your stress to our meetings; we can polish your presentation or pitch to its best form. We will work on verbalization and delivery so you feel like a pro.


    • Café-Talk - Oh the dreaded small talk! Are you someone who actually performs their job in English well, but absolutely cannot hold a casual conversation over a coffee or beer? We can identify your pain points and role-play conversations, until it finally feels natural (because yes, you must network to stay in "the game").


    • Interview Prep - We turn your experience into clear, powerful narratives. I build sets of interview questions specific to your needs, and we go through them together. You will walk into the interview feeling ready and adaptable, not stiff or rehearsed.


    • Team Leading & Management - Communication across your team is impossible if you can't get your words out correctly. We can navigate your verbal and written communication difficulties, as well as leading meetings, both in-person and online.


    • Academics & High-tier Professions - Vocabulary building is essential for these individuals to function in an elevated English environment. We can dive into complex topics and build a more descriptive repertoire of words so you can sound as intelligent as you are, and keep up with your colleagues.


    Perhaps it is time to tackle "impostor syndrome"; let's align your verbalization with your intellect!

    My specialties

    Business English

    My background in Operations and Project Management means I value clarity above all else. We don't do poetry; we do business. You will learn to navigate office politics, handle client updates, and write emails that actually get read. It's time to stop sounding like a student and start sounding like a capable professional.

    American English

    I am American born and raised. I can help you with accent as well as idioms/euphemisms Americans regularly use.

    Intensive English

    Got a deadline? We are going into Boot-camp mode. This track requires commitment because we meet frequently to keep the momentum high and stop you from sliding back. It is fast-paced, high-energy, and the quickest way to smash through a plateau.

    English job interview prep

    Let's turn the interrogation into a conversation. We don't just rehearse answers because that sounds fake. We use psychology to make you the obvious choice. We will master the art of the humble-brag, fix your body language, and perfect your storytelling. Whether it is a chill startup or a rigid corporate board, there is no need to walk in nervous; you will be ready.

    Business & Work

    This is about your actual job. We tackle the specific vocabulary of your industry, how to handle clients, project presentations, etc. We ensure you are clear, efficient, and never misunderstood by your team. It is practical, day-to-day fluency for getting work done without the extra dread or headache.
