Start Making Deeper Connections With English Speakers
Do you struggle to connect with the people you meet in English?
Are you tired of feeling nervous in social situations? Do you feel like your mind goes blank when you try to have a conversation? Are you struggling to build deeper relationships with people because of your language skills?
Well, it's not just you!
Tonnes of people feel the exact same way as you. You are pretty good at English, but when it comes to use it and make connections with new people, it just feels like something is missing.
It can be really hard to actually work out what the problem is. Do you need more vocabulary and grammar? Is it related to my mindset? What can I do to make it better? You end up just going round in circles and not getting anywhere!
Now imagine...
🤩 You can express yourself naturally in English knowing that the other person can understand what you mean.
🤩 You can build strong relationships with the people around you without worrying about the language barrier.
🤩 You can understand how British people actually communicate in daily life and not be overwhelmed.
🤩 You can communicate with native speakers in English about a wide range of topics without getting stuck and saying uhm for ages.
How much easier would your life be? It might seem a bit out of reach but…
I'm here to help you get there!
Imagine how different your life would look if you weren’t worried about talking to the new people you meet. Then you would be able to make new connections and friendships! This will help you build your social network and make you feel less lonely in a new city, or even country!
With the Small Talk Success workshop, you can achieve all of this! My goal is to help people just like you improve their communication skills so that they can build a better life, a fulfilling career, and stronger relationships in the UK (or anywhere else for that matter).
Who am I? Well, let me introduce myself...
My name is Dan and I am a language and communication coach who specialises in British English.
I am originally from Sheffield in the UK, but my life totally changed in April of 2016. That is when I packed my entire life into a suitcase on got on a plane headed to Japan to teach English. I decided to start a new life, in a new country, all on my own.
The problem was that I barely spoke Japanese and I had no idea what it would be like to start a new life a million miles away from everyone that I knew and loved. It was hard, to say the least.
I had to struggle a lot to find my feet, and I made a LOT of mistakes, but fast forward to today and I am happily married to my wonderful wife Erika, living with my 2 cats, and I make a living helping people just like you.
Since April 2023, I have worked with over 100 people through my 1:1 coaching so believe me when I say, I have seen it all. I’ve learned so much about communication in the last few years (and have experienced a lot of it from the side of a language learner) that I have kinda become an expert.
My favourite thing about what I do is helping the people I work with find their voice in English and break down language barriers that are stopping them from living their best life. I love it when they realise English is not the goal, it is just a tool to help you do cool stuff.

Here are what other people are saying about Small Talk Success
What I liked very much was that the structure was very much thought through. The acronyms were fun and practical, so I will not have problems to remember them. From the introductory speech to the course I knew already that what you wanted to teach us was based on your own experience in Japan.
It’s lovely workshop, very clear, conducting by Dan with a proper British humour and authentic accent. Not much theory, just tips and hints. By this workshop I think my skills communication hit a crucial level to speak and live in more comfortable way.

It was a very good workshop. The explanations about Small Talk were very understandable. Now I know how to start a conversation and what I should pay attention to. That was very helpful!
