In the trial lesson we will be practicing pre-intermediate to advanced English. We will use whatever materials seem most appropriate for our needs.

This class is built for ambitious professionals who work in high-stakes, multilingual environments—finance, tech, legal, biotech, and more. If you’ve ever felt frustrated by vague “conversation practice,” this is the antidote.

🧠 Lessons go deep:
• Real industry articles (level-adjusted)• Targeted pronunciation feedback• High-level vocabulary and idioms• No scripts—just real strategy talk

We’ll role-play your actual workplace scenarios:• Presenting to executives• Simplifying tech or finance jargon• Negotiating across cultures• Resolving conflict or pushing back professionally

You’ll learn to sound like someone in control—not just someone who speaks English.

📊 Topics include:
• Synthesizing ideas in meetings• Analyzing project outcomes• Forecasting trends• Navigating ambiguity with nuance

Your message matters more than grammar. This class focuses on clarity, precision, persuasion—and being heard.
