Business English & Behavioural Interview Coach | Soft Skills in Tech | Ex-HR People Partner I’m David - a native English-speaking Business English and Behavioural Interview Coach originally from London. I work primarily with developers, product designers/managers, and recruiters/HRBPs. Key focuses are building confidence in remote/in-office environments, prep for screening calls and behavioural interviews, leadership, fluency, grammar correction, and vocabulary building. I’m an ex-HR People Partner, was a digital nomad for many years, and I’m working on my first novel. Since 2017, I have supported mainly Russian and Polish-speaking professionals in achieving their goals through my experience and an understanding of cultural, behavioural, and grammatical challenges. I have a keen interest in the world of product development, from AI agents to UIUX design, in addition to keeping myself up to date with the world of HR. I like to treat lessons like work calls - another appointment during your day! The environment I create is relaxed, allowing time for conversation before we settle into a discussion topic. I put together a Google Doc for each person, and we can develop a tailored plan based on your specific needs. This may include discussion topics and interview scripts. It’s a collaborative approach! Many professionals have noticed significant growth in confidence when preparing for interviews and communicating more clearly with colleagues in international environments. I have more details on my website and Telegram channel. Feel free to send me a message!

This was my first lesson on italki and I’m very happy with how it went. Everything was clearly explained, the pace was just right, and the atmosphere was friendly and comfortable. I felt at ease throughout the lesson and I’m really looking forward to the next one!

The perfect lesson with the perfect teacher! It seemed to me that David and I have known each other for a long time, how easy going the lesson was! David corrected me during the whole lesson, however he did it in "the soft way", so to speak. He let me express myself, my point of view and after that suggested a bit more natural and accurate vocabulary and phrases to enrich my speech. That's super cool approach! Of course, David was super patient with my pronunciation and English and supported me during the whole lesson. The lesson went by in a blink of an eye. David, thanks a lot!

I would like to thank Dawid for the trial lesson. We discussed my goals and how we can reach them together. He shared his approaches during the lesson and brought a lot of examples. I must also mention that he wrote everything down and sent me some examples later. As a cherry on top, he has an authentic British accent, which was I was looking for.
