English that gets youtaken seriously.
Tailored lessons for people who use English at work — in meetings, presentations, emails and international teams.
Hi Tom, I'd like to discuss about the Q3 budget.
Sure. Could you send me the figures beforehand?
Of course — I'll send them untilby Friday.
Perfect. Let's touch base after that.
Great, I look forward to speakspeaking with you.
Likewise. Your English sounds really confident.
Unnecessary prepositions give non-native speakers away.
Deadlines: “until” vs. “by”.
After “look forward to”, always use -ing.
Small fixes. A big difference in confidence.
Offering
English for real work situations
No textbook dialogues about the weather, and no correcting every word. We work with what you actually deal with — your meetings, presentations and emails.
Presentations
Structure, transitions and composure during Q&A. We rehearse your actual presentation.
English in global teams
Whether you work with colleagues in India, the Philippines or elsewhere, everyone speaks English a little differently – with their own accent, pace, phrases and communication style. Learn to understand them better, ask questions that get clear answers, and avoid misunderstandings on calls and in emails.
Emails & writing
AI writes emails fast, but not always well. Learn to spot when a text sounds stiff or impolite, and edit it so it sounds like you.

About me
Hi, I’m Lucie.
Ing. Lucie Černá · Business English teacher
I know English from real work, not just from textbooks. I went to high school in the USA and spent almost 20 years working for international companies in Ireland and the Czech Republic (Thomson Financial, Accenture, Johnson & Johnson). At J&J I led procurement teams of up to 35 people and was responsible, among other things, for internal training. English was my everyday language in meetings, presentations and dealings with partners across Europe.
I hold a 120-hour TEFL certificate and a TEFL Business English certificate, the Czech State Translator’s Examination in English (C2) and the Cambridge Certificate in Advanced English. I have experience teaching English one-to-one directly in companies. I also teach private clients.
So in our lessons we don’t practise made-up scenarios. We work on your real meetings, emails and presentations. I know how things work in a company, and I know what works in English.
With me, you don’t need to worry about mistakes. I won’t stop you over every one – what matters more is that you speak fluently and confidently. I correct what will genuinely help you at work.
