“Taylingual‘s Business English classes were the foundation of my language skills. Through lessons with Judy, I was able to further my career and land a one-year job opportunity in Australia right after I returned home. I have since gone on to study at Harvard Business School and am building a new career in London.“

It was incredible to work with Judy to prepare for my recent presentation, “Breaking the Ceiling,” at InfoQ Dev Summit Boston, which got 98% green votes from the 200+ attendees, with close to 70% of them being super green (“went above and beyond attendee’s expectations”).
Judy took my presentation from average to awesome, thanks to her exceptionally practical and insightful approach. During our 4 sessions, I was constantly impressed by how she, despite not being from the Software industry, was able to provide me with precise real-time feedback on the content and structure of my slides and my speech. Her ability to provide such precise feedback instilled in me a deep sense of confidence in her expertise.
Judy demonstrated a keen ability to streamline content effectively, urging me to simplify complex ideas and eliminate unnecessary details to clarify my message. She emphasized the importance of making every slide self-explanatory and ensuring that each sentence was concise yet impactful. Her advice on making the slides speak for themselves and crafting explanations that resonate with the audience was invaluable.
Most importantly, Judy’s guidance on incorporating clear action items and takeaways transformed my slides into a powerful toolkit for audience engagement. She always kept the focus on the audience’s needs, always asking critical questions like “What do they need to change to get promoted?” and “How is this information actionable for them?” This approach ensured that my presentation was not only informative but also empowering, making the audience feel valued and considered.
I recommend Judy to anyone looking to elevate their public speaking skills and to crystalize their core message. Her coaching will polish your delivery and deepen your understanding of how to connect with and impact your audience. As a total plus, if English is your second language, Judy will tell you precisely what an accent issue is vs. what a pronunciation issue is. She will help you fix your pronunciation issues right away with her multiple years of experience as a Business English Coach.
Thank you, Judy, for your dedication and pushing me to excel. Your coaching was instrumental in the success of my presentation!

“The option of a private class is the best choice for me. This kind of setting lets me fully focus. The teachers are able to point out my mistakes and work on them. I can always bring to their attention what I would like to improve on in grammar or speech, and they have amazing skills to explain everything to me in a very clear way.”

“I’m a language teacher and I have been teaching in an international school for many years. When I started at Taylingual, I was very frustrated because I didn’t feel confident enough in English and I needed conversation lessons. Thanks to the teachers at Taylingual, I have improved my English speaking, and as an online student I have found Taylingual to have very professional and effective teachers, they are patient, dynamic, and inspiring.”
“I have learned a lot by practicing speaking, grammar, and vocabulary and I now recognize when to correct mistakes. I really enjoyed the interesting conversations through a diverse range of topics in a friendly atmosphere.”
“Taylingual has allowed me to overcome my learning difficulties and made me feel much more confident when speaking English.”

“I was always afraid to speak in English. Perhaps I had convinced myself the only phrases I really knew were: ‘I don’t know English very well’ or ‘I’m scared to even try.’ But this feeling has now changed. I decided to spend my vacation in New York and looked for a Business English Coach. It was a pleasant surprise to find Taylingual. They have well prepared and engaging teachers. The time spent with them helped me develop a new set of skills, which have given me the encouragement I needed to keep seeking improvement for my personal and professional life.”

“I am a professor of criminal law in Italy. Since October 2014, I have been teaching ‘International and Transnational Criminal Law’, i.e. a course of criminal law offered to the students in English. Now I can do it, but when I started at Taylingual, it was July 2014, I could not speak English at all, I was completely frustrated and I never could have imagined that I could have done what I am doing now. All this is simply due to the work done together with the coaches at Taylingual. One of the defining factors of their teaching is for sure the energy that they give to their clients. They are able to transform a simple English course into a real intensive course, giving it the power to become very effective. High linguistic preparation, dynamism, flexible methodology of teaching, extraordinary ability to understand clients and to deal with their needs using the best methods, and last, but not least, a timely helpful sense of humor, are the main ingredients of a recipe that works, and works very well, to be honest. That’s why I was impressed and why I am totally grateful to Taylingual.”

“I had a wonderful experience at Taylingual. They were very friendly and patient. They were able to identify my language weaknesses and Business English problems quickly and helped me to improve in a very short time. Besides this, my coach had a great sense of humor that made every lesson so interesting that I couldn’t wait for my next one!!!! As a client, it is so rare when you can learn so much and bond with your coach at the same time. I would recommend Taylingual to everyone who is aiming to be fluent in Business English.”
