Feeling Stuck with Your English Meeting Skills?
You have the experience and the ideas. But in English meetings, they don’t always come across the way you’d like.
- Do you feel nervous about speaking up in meetings because you’re unsure of the right words to use?
- Are you juggling a busy schedule and don’t know where to start improving your meeting skills?
- Have you tried learning phrases online, only to feel overwhelmed or see little progress?
The Real Cost of Staying Quiet
When you hold back in meetings, people don’t hear what you really know. You might recognise some of these moments:
- Someone else makes the point you were about to make.
- You leave the meeting thinking of what you should have said.
- Your experience isn’t as visible as it should be, and the people who speak up get noticed instead.
These challenges rarely go away on their own. But with a clear, focused approach, they can.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THE COURSE:
Laurentiu
Regional Sales Director
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"During this first week of the course, I have thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Creating new habits has been particularly impactful, especially with the "Meeting Toolkit".
The clear and straightforward structures were perfectly tailored to our specific needs, and the emphasis on practicing and completing conversations was incredibly empowering. I am genuinely grateful for this enriching experience."
Paula
Managing Director
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I'm busy during the week and don't have enough time to improve my English skills.
The course was a perfect solution for me as I could spend around 15 minutes daily and keep progressing. My favourite part was the examples and effective phrases.
After completing the course, I feel more confident when attending English meetings. I don't feel nervous because I know the appropriate phrases and vocabulary to deal with every situation.”
Arek
Senior Software IT Manager
Sustainability Expert
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"The best part of the course is the number of phrases I've learned, which I will definitely incorporate into my meetings and emails.
Additionally, Derek's emphasis that we are in that meeting for a reason and that we need to contribute and make ourselves heard, regardless of whether our English is perfect, has really resonated with me. I feel less afraid of making mistakes. Everything I've learned doesn't just apply to communication in English; I'll also use the tricks, phrases, and strategies in my meetings and emails in my native language."
Jose Manuel
Project Manager
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"If you want to take a course that is well-planned, structured and contains material that gives you the confidence to express yourself in meetings, I can recommend Derek's course. What I liked best were the audio files (mp3's) that I saved and have listened to several times when I exercise, go for walks, etc.
It's also a good and helpful method to write down each day what you take away from today's lesson.
Since the course began, I have become more comfortable expressing myself thanks to having a larger, well-formulated vocabulary."
