Jen & Kate

I've lived and worked in New York City for more than 7 years. However, I struggled from time to time to get my messages across to business partners, and I kicked myself whenever I heard someone speaking more fluently than I do.

I made the best decision to take weekly 1 on 1 classes with Kate since October 2020 - the progress is significant. I am a lot more relaxed and confident when I chat with friends, and I am able to communicate more efficiently with colleagues.

The best way to overcome the fear of making mistakes is to face it head-on in a safe environment that #citytalk provides. Kate is very experienced in teaching adults, and a really kind and generous friend. I only wish that I invested in my speaking earlier!
