About me
Stop translating in your head — start speaking clearly and confidently at work.
I specialise in professional English for people who already use it at work — but know it isn't quite where it needs to be.
My students are at B1–C2 level. They are not beginners. They are professionals who present to senior stakeholders, write formal reports, lead meetings in English, and represent their organisations internationally.
They come to me because they want to close the gap between competent and genuinely authoritative.
Sessions are structured and intensive. I focus on the errors that actually matter — the ones that affect clarity, credibility, and how you are perceived. Progress is visible and fast.
15+ years’ experience, including working in the City of London with senior professionals (CFOs, CEOs).
This means I don’t just teach English — I teach how English is actually used in real business situations.
I work with a small number of students at any one time. If you are serious about your professional English, I'd be glad to hear from you.
I have over 15 years of experience teaching English to professionals in corporate and international environments.
Before teaching, I worked for 8 years in the City of London in corporate tax and advisory, collaborating directly with senior professionals including CFOs and CEOs. This experience allows me to teach not just English, but how communication works in real business situations.
I specialise in helping professionals improve their speaking for:
meetings
interviews
presentations
high-pressure workplace communication
My teaching focuses on practical results. I work with motivated adults who need English for real work situations, not textbook learning.
Lessons are structured, targeted, and focused on speaking, with clear progress over a short period of time.
Business Communications, Meeting, Presentations & Cambridge Exams BEC Prep, English (A1–C2) | Cambridge ( PET, FCE, CAE, CPE)| IELTS
I work with motivated professionals who need English for real results, not just practice.
My students typically:
use English at work and need to speak more confidently
are preparing for interviews or career changes
want to communicate clearly in meetings and presentations
feel stuck at an intermediate level and want to progress quickly
They are serious about improving and understand that consistency is key.
If your goal is fast, measurable progress and you’re ready to commit to regular lessons, we’ll work very well together.

I started with a lot of anxiety in meetings, but after just a few weeks of practice with Darcy, I am amazed by how much more confident I feel. Her explanations are always clear and easy to follow, the lessons are engaging and never feel like a chore, and she has a patience that makes you feel comfortable making mistakes. Darcy is the kind of teacher who makes you look forward to your next lesson. 😊

Darcy’s support had a real impact on my preparation for business school interviews. She helped me build confidence, improve my vocabulary, and structure my sentences more clearly. Her attitude was always positive and encouraging, which made me feel more comfortable speaking and progressing in juste 3 weeks!
