As a teacher, my focus is on my students. Each class is centered on your needs. Because I'm a professional business consultant, I bring authentic, real world Business English / corporate culture to your lessons. My most popular business class is Interview Preparation. In these lessons, we look at every aspect of your interview, from camera position (for online interviews), to eye contact, and especially creating and practicing interview answers that will ensure you stand out from the rest of the applicants.
My consulting clients include senior leaders from academic institutions, corporations, as well as professional business coaches, and I have extensive experience in business and the corporate world. I use my business knowledge to help you gain confidence in speaking and understanding English. I understand how important it is to speak effectively and confidently in business, and that is where I can really help you.
For my non-business English students, we look at movies, Netflix, and we talk about topics that interest you - from food, to travel to technology.
And most of all, we will have fun!

Pat is one of the best English coaches I’ve ever had. I’ve taken several English courses and worked with many teachers and coaches, but learning with Pat has been a completely different experience.
I'm so happy with my classes because I no longer feel nervous. Instead, I feel encouraged and supported. The best part is that I can see my English evolving.
Before starting classes with Pat, I felt like my English had plateaued ( an expression that Pat taught me, by the way). Now, I can say that I’m making progress again, and that has been very motivating for me. Thank you Pat!

I’ve been working with Pat to elevate my English to a more professional and confident level, and the experience has been truly transformative.
Our sessions are highly interactive, built around role-play, structured Q&A, pronunciation work, and real-time feedback. What makes the difference is not only the corrections, but the precision of the observations. The feedback is clear, actionable, and immediately applicable.
One of the most valuable insights was identifying my tendency to speak too fast in an attempt to sound fluent. Slowing down has significantly improved my clarity, presence, and confidence. That awareness alone has changed how I communicate.
If you're looking to refine your professional English with depth, structure, and strategic feedback, I highly recommend working with Pat.
