Guiding Leaders Beyond
"Good Enough" English
Welcome, I’m Richard - a language coach passionate about helping ambitious professionals unlock their true voice in the international business world.
If you’re a driven executive or rising leader who wants to go beyond “getting by” in English, you’re in the right place.
My Mission
I know firsthand that technical skill is essential, but impactful communication is what truly propels careers to the next level.
My mission is to help you step into every meeting, call, or boardroom with the confidence and clarity you have in your native language—so you can lead, inspire, and win, no matter who’s in the room.
Why I’m Different
It’s Not Just About Grammar: I don’t just “teach English”—I coach real-world executive communication that gets results.
Built on Experience: Over 25 years as an educator, business trainer, and language coach, working with top companies and leaders across Spain and Europe.
Barcelona Heart, Irish Roots: Born in Ireland and now Barcelona-based, I blend a relaxed, encouraging vibe with a focus on achievement and accountability.
Proven Method: My approach is tailored, practical, and fun, honed through helping hundreds of professionals finally lead meetings, negotiate, and present just as persuasively as they do in their own language.
My Approach In A Nutshell
Real Business Focus: Sessions are designed around your real work challenges—think presentations, board meetings, negotiations—not textbook drills.
Confidence at the Core: We target the mindset barriers holding you back from speaking up, not just the vocabulary gaps.
Immediate Wins: Every session gives you language and strategies to use right away—with feedback and ongoing support that keeps you growing.

Here's What My Clients Say:
Real Professionals. Real Results.
I took small-group English classes at work and found them extremely effective. Richard focused on practical communication, tailored to our professional needs. The sessions were engaging, well-structured, and helped us build real confidence in using English. Highly recommended!!
— Ivan D., Senior Analyst
Richard is one of the best coaches and communicators I’ve ever worked with. He tailors each lesson to my level and focuses on the areas I need to strengthen, especially those related to my professional context. Thanks to his guidance, I’ve improved my performance in multidisciplinary meetings and adopted more natural English expressions. I learn something new in every session!
— Abel D IT Project Manager
I highly recommend Richard as an exceptional coach. His lessons have not only helped me significantly improve my language skills but have also taught me to appreciate the deeper implications of word choice, communication styles, and tone. Every class with Richard has been engaging, insightful, and a true pleasure to attend. His coaching has left a lasting and meaningful impact on me, both personally and professionally.

Frequently Asked Question
General Questions
What is your methodology?
I want to ensure that you learn in the best way possible, so I start with you. I will always ask you what you like and what you don't like so I can ensure that each session is created for your needs.
As such I am not a "methodology person" in the sense that I don't stick to one way of doing classes. My expertise is in adapting in an instant. You may come to me with an urgent presentation and we will work on that.
However rest assured that each session is fully prepared with a range of activities suited to your needs.
Are sessions conducted online or in-person?
All my sessions are conducted online via my video conferencing system.
With your permission each session is recorded for you to review the session and the notes I took.
How much is each session?
I prefer to work on a program basis.
I will assess your needs and then decide the best option. If have prices for both corporate clients, private clients and group sessions.
Let's book in a call and see what works for you.
What about flexibility?
I always ensure that flexibility is built in.
However I do ask that you give me at least 12 hours notice if you need to cancel or change a session.
How do I pay you?
Payment is made via bank transfer to my business account.
All sessions need to be paid prior to the session.
If you fail to cancel a session or do not turn up for a session, I reserve the right to charge you for that session.
