Who this programme is for

FluencyUP™ is for professionals who:
  • already use English at work (Intermediate to Proficiency: B1–C2)

  • communicate clearly when prepared but lose speed, structure or control under pressure

  • want to respond more naturally in meetings, discussions and high‑stakes situations

  • are ready to practise in real time, not study grammar or memorise rules


  • What you’ll gain

    By the end of the 12 weeks, you will:
  • communicate with greater clarity and control in fast‑moving, high‑pressure situations

  • overthink less and respond more naturally

  • express your ideas with more confidence and structure

  • understand your communication patterns and how to improve them

  • leave with a personalised, sustainable system for continued independent progress


  • How FluencyUP™ works


    FluencyUP™ is a practical, performance‑based programme that combines weekly live group sessions with weekly 1:1 tutorials to build clearer, more reliable real‑time communication.


  • 12 weeks of structured training

  • weekly 90‑minute live group session focused on interaction, discussion and realistic workplace communication

  • weekly 30‑minute 1:1 tutorial for personalised feedback, progress checks and targeted support

  • 3–5 applied practice tasks per week (5–10 minutes each), embedded in your actual work

  • maximum of 6 participants for focused, high‑impact coaching


  • Each group session combines context‑driven speaking activities, targeted language input, emergent language work, and communication analysis and feedback. Between sessions, you test skills in real situations, reflect on what works, and bring your experience back to refine and improve.

    The 12‑Week Arc

    Across the 12 weeks, you move through four phases:

    • Foundations (Weeks 1–3) Build awareness, reduce overthinking, establish baseline fluency, and develop core techniques.

    • Acceleration (Weeks 4–7) Manage time pressure, cognitive load, interruptions, and increasingly complex communication scenarios.

    • Integration (Weeks 8–10) Apply fluency skills directly to real workplace tasks, meetings, and high‑stakes communication moments.

    • Evaluation (Weeks 11–12) Consolidate progress, evaluate performance under pressure, and design a personalised continuation pathway.

  • What learners say

    O.D., management & marketing assistant


    “Mariya helped me understand how to use English better at my work and how to get things done when situations become busy or stressful. She helped me learn how to focus on what is important when I speak, instead of thinking too much about every word and worrying about making mistakes. Most importantly, I became more confident in my team and taking part in conversations. I now feel more like myself, even when speaking English. Mariya understands that the workplace needs a different way to learn English.”


    A.M., musician & rock band manager, London


    “Your coaching helped me listen more carefully, adapt more quickly, stay engaged, and lead conversations more effectively. Even when I’m not fully prepared, I can adapt more quickly, stay engaged, and actively participate instead of avoiding difficult moments. It feels much more practical and useful compared to just studying dry material, because I’m learning how to communicate in real, live situations.”


    Dr K.R., medical professional


    “After I took part in the course, I had a few patients who speak English. I felt more confident speaking to them, and the consultations were much easier for me. Now I’m not searching for the words I need as before. This helped me feel more prepared and confident when speaking with English-speaking patients.

    What level of English do I need?

    You should be able to participate in meetings and express your ideas independently. You don’t need perfect grammar — you need willingness to practise in real time.
