Executive Language Coaching

Are you ready to make your workplace more equitable? Or, is a promotion on the horizon for you, but you feel like you need to improve your English speaking skills first?  You hesitate to hand in your application because you just don't feel "good enough"? Perhaps you are a manager looking for a way to increase the speaking confidence of one of your immigrant employees to ensure diverse succession planning. Have you tried English classes before but they are boring, and you want to quit?

In today's fast-paced business environment, effective communication is key to success. Diversity at Work’s  Executive Language Coaching services offers tailored 1:1  training for executives and professionals seeking to enhance their English language skills. Whether preparing for an upcoming presentation, attending international meetings, or engaging with diverse teams, our programs focus on job-specific language training to help you achieve your professional goals.

Corporate Language Training

Our corporate language training programs are designed to equip professionals with intermediate language skills to thrive in a business landscape. As companies expand internationally, the ability to communicate effectively across cultures and languages becomes crucial. Our training focuses on practical language application, providing participants the tools to navigate high-stakes environments confidently. With flexible scheduling and dynamic course content, our training solutions cater to your organization's unique needs, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and language competence.

Enhance Your Communication Skills for the Workplace

You have great ideas to contribute to the discussion, but instead you remain silent. Does this sound like you?  Is you lack of confidence or vocabulary keeping you from participating in meetings? We can help you to master the art of delivering presentations or how to handle meetings. 

Why Choose Our Corporate Language Training?

We recognize that learning English can be challenging.  Traditional approaches to language learning often omit or downplay the importance of correct pronunciation and intonation –the keys to being understood and speaking confidently.  Consequently, language learners can spend countless hours repeating incorrect pronunciation or learning none.  Furthermore, inappropriate intonation can lead to misunderstanding and conflict. Diversity at Work focuses on these speaking components.


Our comprehensive approach to language coaching combines practical exercises with real-world scenarios, ensuring you gain confidence and fluency in your communication. With a focus on spoken and written English, participants will learn key skills such as effective negotiation techniques, presentation strategies, and business writing essentials. 

Tailored Training Programs for Your Needs

After a preliminary assessment, in collaboration with your language coach, you will decide your coaching priorities, the length of study, frequency and the amount of time you can devote to post-coaching exercises. There are no long-term contracts.  Language coaching is concentrated so that you only focus on what is needed, maximizing your investment in time and money. All materials are included in the pricing.

EFL Language Training

We work with learners who have acquired at least an intermediate level of English proficiency. Diversity at Work concentrates primarily on speaking skills such as pronunciation, intonation and vocabulary enhancement while also strengthening listening, reading and writing skills. Through interactive lessons and real-world application, clients gain the necessary tools to communicate effectively in diverse contexts.

ESL Language Training

English as a Second Language (ESL) training is designed for individuals who reside in English-speaking environments and seek to improve their English language skills especially in the workplace. Diversity at Work’s program not only enhances speaking proficiency, but also aids in written business communication skills. Led by a TEFL certified teacher and intercultural specialist, learners will benefit from dialogues and resources about cross-cultural business scenarios and etiquette.. Participants engage in immersive experiences that reflect everyday interactions, thus gaining confidence in their language use. The focus is on both conversational and formal English, ensuring learners are well-equipped for both workplace and social settings.

This customized approach ensures that participants acquire the vocabulary and communication techniques relevant to their fields, whether it be finance, healthcare, technology, or customer service.

Testimonials:

 

It has been two years since I started to have Evelina as my English tutor to help me with my business English.

Evelina is very professional and consistently resourceful in providing tailor-made lessons and coaching based on student requirements, expectations, and his/her English level.

She is always cheerful and encouraging and has created a supportive environment for me to overcome my shyness without any pressure, learn from my mistakes, and grow.

Thanks to her educational background in social sciences, rich experience, and a broad range of perspectives of business, she and her lessons are unique and exclusively resourceful. She could provide coaching for language improvement and skills training in business communication using English such as presentation, meeting speech, customer communication, conflict & complaint handling, etc., which is more than I had expected.

 

She can break down complicated tasks easily for students to learn and improve. That’s why my language skills have benefited tremendously since working with her and I feel more confident nowadays.

I have had the pleasure to have Evelina Silveira as my English Language Coach for the last year. I was looking for an experienced professional to help me improve my English skills and be successful in a new country. She has a lot of experience, strong communications skills, and knowledge of diversity and inclusion. After a couple of classes, I shared my desire to be confident in giving Business presentations in English and promptly customized a program for me. It was definitely one of the best learning experiences I have had. She taught me not only English but also how to use diplomatic language in the workplace. Now, I feel confident and ready to discuss any subject. I couldn't be more grateful for finding her because she helped me to get my dream job. I highly recommend Evelina Silveira. Most importantly, she is not only very talented but is a fantastic human being.

I would like to recommend Evelina Silveira as an Teacher of English as a Foreign Language. I met Evelina a year ago when looking for a native English teacher. I needed English conversation classes, but I was worried about talking to a native because of my limitations with language and shyness. In our first class, she was so patient and dedicated that I have since been taking classes with her every week. The qualities I see in Evelina are many, but I would like to highlight patience, using an encouraging way to correct students, the ability to talk about different subjects and, respect for different cultures. She is very friendly and concerned with the student's progress. As I can see my progress in learning English, I am sure that everyone who has the opportunity to work or study with her will be successful.

 

Eu gostaria de recomendar Evelina Silveira como Professora de Inglês.Eu conheci Evelina há um ano quando procurava uma professora de inglês nativa para aulas de conversação. Na nossa primeira aula ela foi tão paciente e dedicada que desde então tenho tido aulas com ela toda semana.As qualidades que eu vejo na Evelina são muitas, mas destaco a paciência, a maneira acertiva de corrigir o aluno, a habilidade de conversar sobre assuntos diversos, respeito pelas culturas, ela é muito amigável e preocupada com o progresso do aluno.Assim como posso ver o meu progresso na conversação em Inglês, tenho certeza que todos que tiverem oportunidade de trabalhar ou estudar com ela serão bem sucedidos.
