IS THIS SOMETHING YOU’RE FAMILIAR WITH?

Presentation in English

Difficulty Expressing Your Ideas

You use simple language structures and vocabulary and want to sound more sophisticated and professional.

Feel Held Back

You feel you are not showing your best at work due to English holding you back.

Feel Blocked

During meetings, you often get ´blocked’. You want to raise ideas but just can’t because you forget words.

Feel Anxious

If there is more than one person in the room you feel anxious and your English changes drastically.

Few Opportunities to Speak English

You know that the best way to improve fluency is to practice speaking, but you have few opportunities to converse with others.

Fear of Judgement

You fear being judged by others on your English skills and this makes it difficult for you to share your ideas.

That's why we created the Impactful English Academy

There are many people, just like you, who face daily challenges due to a lack of fluency and confidence in the English language, resulting in negative impacts.

FAQ

On my journey as a business English communication teacher and coach, I’ve seen many professionals suffer from stress, frustration and anxiety because of not having the fluency or feeling a lack of confidence speaking English as their second language at work. 

I created the Impactful English Academy to help you improve your fluency, business English, and grow in confidence speaking in front of other people. This is the purpose fo the conversation classes, which give you the opportunity to practice speaking with other learners six days a week.

The training and video lessons will help you further improve fluency, business English and become more self-sufficient when it comes to improving your English and dealing with high-pressure work situations, such as giving presentations and participating in urgent meetings.

To become a fluent and confident English speaker at work, four core foundations must be fulfilled and continually developed. 

These four foundations are:

  1. Fluency practice 
  2. Appropriate language
  3. Cultivating a Confident Mindset
  4. Business skills competence

By joining the Impactful English Academy you will have access to resources that support you in all of these four foundations.

  1. Fluency practice
    You’ll have access to all the group conversation classes on Zoom, which are led by Steven or another experienced English coach. As well as this, you will learn fluency improvement strategies, through workshops and live training. And have the opportunity to participate, study and ask questions in real time.

  2. Appropriate language
    You’ll have access to training videos and lessons focused on business terminology, native-speaker expressions, business English vocabulary and grammar.

  3. Cultivating a Confident Mindset
    You will get instant access to our growing library of lessons focused on cultivating a confident mindset specific to speaking English in a professional context.

  4. Business skills competence
    You will get instant access to our growing library of lessons focused on improving your business skills such as giving presentations and participating in meetings

 

You will also have access to the Impactful English private community which encourages students to support each other, find language partners, and network.

The required level is Intermediate (B1),  Upper Intermediate (B2) and advanced (C1). Please don’t join if you have a lower level than intermediate because you will be out of your depth.

Additionally, consider that the conversation classes are mixed levels. So if you are advanced there is a possibility that there will be intermediate learners in the class and vice versa.

The conversation classes are scheduled at the following days/time:

  • Mondays 12 PM
  • Tuesdays 4 PM
  • Wednesdays 9 AM
  • Thursdays 4 PM
  • Fridays 12 PM

    *(LONDON TIME ZONE)

You are free to attend as many conversation classes as you like. Currently there are 5 per week. Even if you only attend one class a week, at $10 a month it is still great value.

If you cannot attend a class this will have no impact on the following class because they are not sequential. The classes have individual topics that do not follow on from the previous class.

As the Impactful English Academy grows, more conversation classes will be added. Our objective is to offer as many classes as possible so that you can get amazing value from this Academy.

The duration for each conversion class is 45 minutes.

They take place on Zoom Meetings. You will be provided with the link beforehand.
