Business English for European Professionals Who Want to Move Ahead

Speak English With Confidence in Europe’s Global Business Environment

Across Europe, English is the language of leadership, opportunity, and mobility. Whether you are working with international clients, multinational teams, or planning your next career move, how you communicate in English directly influences your credibility, confidence, and professional trajectory.

At Fluent Business Talk, we help European professionals speak English with authority, clarity, and natural confidence—not classroom English, but real business communication used every day across Europe’s corporate landscape.


The Hidden Barrier to Career Growth in Europe

Many highly skilled professionals across Europe speak “good” English, yet still face limitations:

  • Difficulty expressing ideas clearly in meetings and strategy discussions

  • Lack of confidence when speaking with senior leadership or international clients

  • Sounding either too formal or too cautious in professional conversations

  • Feeling overlooked for promotions, international roles, or cross-border projects

In a competitive European market, communication is no longer a soft skill—it is a career-defining advantage.


Our Approach: English That Accelerates Careers

We deliver practical, results-driven Business English coaching designed for professionals who want measurable impact.

Founded by Etienne  Eloff, our methodology is shaped by over 25 years of international corporate experience and more than 5,500 hours of specialist Business English teaching. Every session focuses on how English is actually used in European business settings—meetings, negotiations, presentations, interviews, and leadership communication.

Our clients don’t just improve their English.
They gain confidence, professional presence, and career momentum.


Career Opportunities Start With Communication

Strong Business English opens doors across Europe:

  • Access to multinational companies and international teams

  • Eligibility for cross-border roles, promotions, and leadership positions

  • Stronger performance in interviews, assessments, and executive conversations

  • Greater confidence when relocating or working with global stakeholders

We help you communicate in a way that reflects your expertise—so language never limits your potential.

A Smart Financial Decision: Tax Benefits in Europe

Business English coaching is not only an investment in your career—it can also be tax-efficient.

For European Companies

In many European countries, including the UK (HMRC) and several EU jurisdictions, employee training and professional development are commonly tax-deductible business expenses. Improving your team’s communication skills can reduce taxable income while increasing international effectiveness and competitiveness.

For Individual Professionals

Self-employed professionals, freelancers, and specialists may be able to deduct Business English coaching as a professional development cost related to their current occupation.

Always consult a local tax advisor to confirm eligibility and regulations.
