I am now able to identify the mistakes that I have made in my previous emails, such as a tendency for making the wrong word choice, inappropriate tone, incorrect grammar and writing in spoken English style. Her interactive way of teaching has made me eager to learn how to write professional business letters with precision and conciseness. The practical exercises were always useful and easy to follow.

“I have never been very good at speaking in public and the biggest obstacle has always been trying to sort out what to put in to a short presentation and make it effective! With the presentation skills class, there were a lot of opportunities to present allowing me to receive immediate feedback especially on my pronunciation, use of language and delivery style. In particular, I liked the structure of the class which enabled me to build a presentation from beginning to the end. In fact, I have been able to put these new skills into practise at work. Rachel is an excellent mentor and coach!”

The emphasis on considering the audience's needs was really useful and as a result I found it easier to get my message across and was able to have the audience follow what I have to say.
