About Grace
Hello there, I'm Grace!
I'm English and have spent over 15 years living and working internationally across Europe, Africa, Asia, Latin America and Australia. If there's one thing I've learned, it's that how you speak, present yourself and connect with others can be just as important as what you say.
As the Founder and CEO of an international consultancy, I've worked with governments, senior executives, international organizations and businesses across diverse cultural and professional environments. I'm also an experienced public speaker, having delivered keynote presentations, spoken at the United Nations, appeared on national television and undertaken professional voice-over work.
Today, I offer personalized coaching in British English, business etiquette and executive communication, with a particular focus on helping international professionals communicate confidently and make a strong impression in British business and social settings.
My coaching focuses on five key areas:
British English & Speaking Style: Refine your pronunciation, vocabulary, tone and phrasing to sound more natural, articulate and confident in British English.
Executive Presence & Professional Confidence: Strengthen how you introduce yourself, express opinions, command attention and present yourself in meetings, interviews and public speaking engagements.
British Business Etiquette: Understand professional introductions, meeting conventions, networking, appropriate forms of address and the unwritten rules of British workplace culture.
Diplomacy & Cross-Cultural Communication: Learn the art of British politeness, understatement, tactful disagreement, negotiation and reading between the lines.
Social Confidence & Conversation: Master British small talk, humor, conversational etiquette and the subtle skills that help you build rapport and put others at ease.
Lessons are practical, interactive and tailored to your professional or personal goals, using real-life scenarios, role-play and constructive feedback to develop skills you can immediately apply.
Whether you're preparing for an important meeting, working with British clients, relocating to the UK or simply wanting to sound more naturally British, my aim is to help you communicate with confidence, sophistication and authenticity.
Excellent communication isn't just about speaking well, it is about building trust, navigating cultural expectations and knowing how to leave the right impression.
I look forward to meeting you!

My lessons go beyond traditional English teaching, focusing on how to sound more naturally British, communicate confidently and understand the cultural nuances behind the language.
Each lesson is personalised to your level, interests and goals, whether you want to refine your pronunciation, develop a more natural British conversational style or feel more confident in social and professional environments.
Together, we can explore British pronunciation, vocabulary, expressions, humour, understatement, politeness, small talk and the unwritten rules of British communication — including the subtle difference between what British people say and what they actually mean!
For professionals and business clients, I offer tailored coaching in meetings, presentations, interviews, negotiations, networking and professional correspondence. Drawing on my international business experience, we can practise real-life scenarios, refining not only what you say, but how you say it and how you come across.
My approach is practical, engaging and conversation-focused, combining cultural insights, interactive exercises and real-world situations. The aim isn't to change your identity or erase your accent, but to help you communicate with greater confidence, authenticity and cultural awareness.
Whether you're preparing to move to Britain, working with British colleagues or simply fascinated by British language and culture, I'll tailor our lessons to your needs.
Lessons are available online or in person in Adelaide.
