Applied AI for Tourism and Hospitality: Practical Workflows
From 28 C$ /h
Hotels, travel agencies and tour operators run on communication — enquiries, bookings, itineraries, reviews, and guests writing in several languages. Most of that work is repetitive. Much of it is exactly where AI genuinely helps, and most businesses are using it badly or not at all.
I spent twelve years in the travel industry, working with international bookings, ticketing and airline systems. I've spent the last two years building LLM tooling and training AI models. This class sits between those two things: how to apply AI to the daily work of a tourism or hospitality business.
You'll learn how to draft and answer guest enquiries faster without sounding like a machine. How to handle reviews — the straightforward ones and the difficult ones. How to produce itineraries, property descriptions and marketing copy from your own material. How to work across languages without hiring a translator for every message. And how to build repeatable workflows, so a task you do fifty times becomes a task you set up once.
This isn't about replacing your staff with a chatbot. It's about removing the repetitive work so your people can spend their time on guests.
By the end, you'll have a set of workflows built around your own business, not a list of tools you've heard of.

Extra information
Bring a laptop and an AI assistant you can log into — the free tier of any major one is enough. Bring one real task from your business that you'd like to speed up: a standard enquiry, a review you keep meaning to answer, a description that needs rewriting. We'll work on that instead of a made-up example.

About Me
I've been teaching English online for ten years, and I still enjoy the moment a student says something correctly that they couldn't say a month ago. That's what keeps me in this work.
What it's like to learn with me. My lessons are built around speaking, not listening to me explain grammar. I'd rather you talk for most of the hour and make mistakes than sit quietly and get everything right. I correct as we go, and I explain why something sounds wrong — not just that it does. That's the difference between memorising a rule and actually owning it.
Everything is prepared in advance and tailored to you. No generic worksheets handed to everyone. After each session you get written feedback: what we covered, what to review, and what's next. I teach this way partly because I learned English to C2 myself as a Serbian speaker — I know exactly which structures trip people up, and I can explain the reasoning rather than only marking the error.
Who I work best with. Adults who need English for their work — managers, engineers, developers, people preparing for interviews, presentations or negotiations. Also students who feel stuck at the same level and want to move past it. And complete beginners, if you're willing to speak from the first lesson rather than waiting until you feel ready.
What I bring beyond English. I spent 25 years in industry — logistics, SAP, manufacturing — and I now work in applied AI, building LLM tooling and training models. So if you work in tech, engineering or operations, I already speak your vocabulary. I also spent fifteen years in travel and aviation, including as cabin crew with JAT Airways and twelve years in a travel agency.
I also teach people how to apply AI in their own work — practical workflows rather than theory. If that's what you're after, ask.
Tell me what you need and I'll build the lessons around it.
