These are precisely the challenges we will address together.

Our focus will include
**Professional Communication:** Refining language used in meetings, presentations, and business writing.
**Industry-Specific Vocabulary:** Customized to fit your area of expertise.
**Cultural Nuance:** Assisting you in grasping the & unwritten rules of global business interactions"
My aim is not solely to be your tutor but also to serve as your partner in achieving professional success. I am dedicated to offering structured lessons driven by results that accommodate your busy lifestyle. If you are prepared to invest in your career advancement and elevate your professional English skills, I invite you to schedule a trial lesson with me.

Testimonials:
Dear Sir/Madam,
This letter is in reference to the performance of Javis (Jay) on the TEFL classroom course.
What has Javis learnt?
Javis has demonstrated a positive attitude and first-rate application to the tasks. I believe Javis will be a good teacher with little support necessary. Javis lesson planning is developing, achieving a good understanding of issues in TEFL.
In particular, Javis has: - demonstrated a keen interest in the topics covered on the course. - shown the ability to establish rapport in the class. - responded well to suggestions.
Javis is personable, clear, and engaging in his role as teacher. He showed excellent ability to take on feedback and his lessons developed very well throughout the course especially in the areas of student centred learning and staging. Javis was highly supportive of his peers during discussions and activities. He asked focussed questions and was especially good at delivering relevant feedback during teaching practice. I am sure that he will make a very effective language teacher and be a supportive and much valued member of the staffroom.
We are accredited by ODLQC, BAC and are an SQA Approved Centre (Scottish Qualifications Authority).
Yours faithfully,
Jennifer Mackenzie
