Improve your English and business English speaking, writing and presenting

Hello! I am a native English professional, born and raised in the South-East of England. I specialise in teaching professionals correct 'Queen's English' pronunciation and spelling to improve business writing and speaking skills.

I currently work in Zurich in financial services and have spent the last 9 years working in investor relations, corporate communications and the private investment universe, at management level, in London and Switzerland. I have the skills and extensive experience to teach you how to present yourself in a professional and eloquent manner and write perfect emails, marketing materials, communications, academic pieces and resumes.

I can also offer these services to younger students who do not necessarily need business skills but need a hand in learning English overall, for example reading out loud and learning correct grammar.

I am very patient, friendly and able to tailor my services to your individual needs - I can be as flexible as needed to help you reach your goals.

About Me

Hello!

I'm a 31 year old female professional, currently living and working in Zurich. I was born and raised in South East England, moving to London in my twenties and then on to Zurich in 2018.

I have spent my entire career in financial services, initially working in investor relations with public companies before moving into the private investment/ asset management sector. I have been working with corporate and marketing communication in both areas of work and have a real passion for writing and presenting. I have always had excellent grammar and speaking skills and would love to help others in realising their potential with the English language.

I have also mentored and supported students through work placements with me and my teams, as well as supporting them in taking the first step in their career thereafter - I have written more resumes, cover letters, university reference letters and CVs than I care to count!

I am friendly and personable so please do not hesitate to get in touch, Kayte

Spanish & English Lessons with Erika in Belgium :)
Teaching is my passion, and as a native speaker, I've had the pleasure of connecting with students worldwide, starting from my experiences in the Czech Republic where I used to teach English to children. We can delve into the intricacies of communication, focusing on what matters to you. I prepare students for tests like DELE and SIELE, tailoring my approach to your unique goals—whether it's acing an exam, exploring the world, or simply diving into language and culture. My lessons take a casual twist—we might stroll around, grab a coffee or tea, and make learning an enjoyable experience. The best part for me is when students express gratitude for our time together. I believe language is more than just words, and I look forward to sharing my perspective with you. Can't wait to meet you and start this language journey together!
