Communication Training from an experienced and reputable coach! VASTA Member teaching Articulation, Elocution, Public Speaking, Presentation

From 135 C$ /h

I privately coach personalised Speech courses in London or online via Zoom, Skype or Google Meetings. Speech training has helped millions of people throughout history, including myself, find command and confidence in speech. Following five years of the highest standard of training up to Masters level I have a rounded knowledge of many tried and tested training techniques, from Linklater technique to Taoist voice practice. If you want to learn to use your voice as a tool and stop seeing it as an obstacle, you’re in the right place!

In any speech course of training I run, in our first session, we will discuss and identify your specific goals. Then, I will detail a strategy to achieve those goals. All the following features will be considered as I teach you, but we will prioritise different features at different times according to my recommendation.

1. Body: Posture, Movement, Muscle Tension, Vocal Tract Sensation, Health and Exercise.
2. Breath: Placing and Control.
3. Channel: Face, Lips, Jaw, Tongue, Soft Palate, Pharyngeal, Laryngeal.
4. Phonation: Qualities of Phonation, Phonatory Stamina, Onset.
5. Resonance: Features of Head, Oral and Chest Resonant Quality + Focus of Oral Placing.
6. Pitch: Centre, Range and Intonation Patterns/Variety.
7. Loudness: Overall Volume of Speech, Variety and Control, and use in Emphasis.
8. Articulation: Consonant and Vowel Clarity, Pace, Pause, Fluency, Rhythm.
9. Accent: If you would like we may discuss accent training as well.

I am a highly reputed voice and speech coach who has worked internationally for large companies and with high profile private clients. You can not get better training in this field than I have received, completing training in Cambridge, New York and London including a masters in Voice Studies: Teaching and Coaching from the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama and a 3 year Conservatory training at the Stella Adler Studio of Acting.

Throughout my career, professionals across numerous sectors have engaged in speech coaching from myself. From doctors to architects to actors, all have expressed total satisfaction with my coaching. To clarify, working with me will help you to fill rooms with your voice, capture people’s attention and show off your natural, previously untapped charisma. Above all, it is very important to me that each student discovers the full potential of their voice.

When you think about it, we have to speak so often. Consequently, when talking makes you feel inadequate and self-conscious, every day of life can have nightmarish qualities. Instead, discover a way to use speech to always feel powerful, competent and satisfied.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

Speak with greater confidence in English—whether you are preparing for an interview, delivering a presentation or taking part in an important business conversation.

I offer personalised, one-to-one sessions for intermediate and advanced English speakers, particularly international professionals, university students and applicants. Together, we will work on expressing your ideas clearly, choosing appropriate language and responding thoughtfully to questions.

Each lesson starts with your goals. We might discuss a topical article, rehearse a job or university interview, practise a presentation, or explore a realistic workplace situation. I will give you specific feedback on your wording, structure and delivery, with practical points to work on between sessions. You are welcome to bring your own presentation, interview questions or discussion topics.

I graduated with a First in Law from Oxford and completed the Bachelor of Civil Law before training as a barrister. I am now a non-practising barrister with substantial experience in banking, business leadership and international consultancy. My approach draws on years of explaining complex ideas, presenting arguments and working with people across cultures.
