Better English for Better Communication
“I work with a whole range of people who all make sensational progress with their English language skills, and who are constantly surprised at how much fun they have in the process. I cultivate a motivational learning environment which helps my students feel comfortable when speaking English. My students are inspired to succeed and I make sure they do.”
About me
Born and raised in Scotland, I came to the lovely Rhineland many years ago and stayed much longer than I had ever intended. In fact, so much so, that I now consider Cologne my second, and much-loved home. English is my mother tongue, I am fluent in German and I speak a little Spanish and French too.

Service
No two clients are identical, nor do they have exactly the same needs. This is why all programs are individual and tailor-made to your specific requirements. As a classically trained singer, I specialise in pronunciation, clear speech and confident voice use, but I also offer training in a wide variety of other topics.
With over 15 years English training experience in many business sectors such as banking, engineering, project management and clerical work, I am sure I will be able to help you too.

Texts can often be grammatically correct when written by non-native speakers, however the style can sometimes sound unnatural. I can help you with your English language content so as to most effectively reach an international audience with no distractions from your original message
