We optimise your business English
Our Business English Coaching is ideally suited for busy professionals and teams with a need for professional business English and who need to communicate appropriately beyond their existing English level.
We know that available time is precious and often scarce. Therefore Davies Business English, with the 'Personal Accelerated Learning' concept, has developed a way to convey the professional English which really helps you in an English-speaking business world - in the shortest time. We put you in the position to master speeches convincingly, conduct business meetings competently and give presentations with self confidence.
With Davies Business English you have a native speaker with many years of experience in Business English training. In addition to individual coaching, we also offer trainings for teams. We customise all content to your desired topics. Talk to us, together we will raise your Business English to a very professional level - personalised and efficient.
Why we are different
The Davies Business English learning concept goes far beyond that of conventional English courses. With us, you or your employees receive personal, intensive coaching. Thus successes are a lot faster. We do not give ordinary courses with standardised lessons.
We focus solely on efficient training of English for business purposes. You will benefit from the experience of a native speaker with a business background and you will not waste your time learning content which is not relevant.
Your coaching is planned with you right from the beginning with topics, grammar and vocabulary that meet your specific needs - exactly the English that you will use when you return to work.
Our coaching takes place in the ideal situation for you to concentrate on the language. This can be at your workplace, or for even better focus, on Mallorca away from the job. We prepare you for your short intensive training so that you know what to expect, and we follow up with regular updates so that you can continue to make progress even after the training.

Comments and recommendations from our clients
After the training, I started more relaxed into the daily conversations, rang up my colleagues pro-actively and contacted one potential customer in the UK. That was challenging but I felt good and so it worked well. Actually, I have no idea how to make the training better, because for me it was the best, I ever had. I also recommend you to some of my colleagues and friends.
Clive Davies ist ein excellenter Englischtrainer. Er löste meine Sprachbarrieren und hat es geschafft, dass ich ohne Angst Englisch spreche. Ich kann das Training mit Clive nur empfehlen. Clive ist außerdem als Proofreader und Übersetzer für meinen Verlag tätig. Auch hier liefert er sehr gute Arbeitsergebnisse und gewann einige Neukunden.
Clive Davies erfasste in erstaunlich kurzer Zeit alle wichtigen Inhalte und Ziele meines Vortrages. So hatten wir schnell die Struktur der Präsentation festgelegt und konnten mit dem Üben beginnen. Korrekturen von Grammatik und Vokabular flossen sehr unauffällig aber bestimmt ein. Das Bewusstsein dafür zu schulen, welche Wirkungen mit welcher Kommunikation (verbal und non-verbal) erzielt werden können, steht im Mittelpunkt seiner Arbeit. Alles hat er mit großer persönlicher Wertschätzung begleitet. Die gemeinsame Arbeit mit ihm hat richtig Spass gemacht. Das wird sicher nicht das letzte Projekt mit Clive gewesen sein.
Hallo Clive, ich möchte mich auf diesem Weg für Deinen außergewöhnlichen Englischunterricht bedanken. Ich hatte zuvor so ziemlich alles probiert was üblicherweise für Wiedereisteiger Angeboten wird.Bei Deiner lockeren und Praxis bezogenen Art gewinnt man schnell an Selbstvertrauen und Sicherheit. Ich kann Deine Arbeit für jeden, der einsteigt oder sich weiterentwickeln will, nur empfehlen. Bis zum nächsten Mal.
I recommend personalised Business English training with Clive Davies to improve your confidence and ability to communicate at a professional level.

It's that time of year again!
Whether for business or personal reasons, a lot of targets are set at this time of year. Companies set sales targets, production targets etc. for the next 12 months and marketing budgets for the next year’s campaigns are finalised. On a personal level, many people make promises to themselves that they will achieve certain things related to their health, personal development and career goals. So much has already been written on these topics with the advice ranging from ‘how to get immediate results’ to a ‘10 year plan’ model that it can all become bewildering.
Personally, I prefer a mixed approach. I think it is good to have a long-term vision based on core values (but first, of course, we...
Preparation for a job interview in English
The whole process of searching for a new job can be extremely stressful with peaks in stress levels occurring at the job interview. When a part or all of the interview is to be conducted in a language which is not your mother tongue then naturally stress levels increase even more. If you have an interview for a job with an international company and English is not your first language then you are likely to find yourself in this exact situation.
If you have even thought of applying for a job in an international company it is likely that you have a good level of English. You may feel confident in normal conversations and business situations. At least you feel able...

In my last article, I gave some ideas for structuring a CV and for some of the things which should be included. It is also worth looking at some of the things which should be avoided or taken out if you have them. Your CV may be your first introduction, your first chance to make a good impression, to show off your strengths and to get the attention of the recruiter or the employer. Therefore, careful consideration of the contents is called for, in considerable detail.
Although there are various possible formats, from a brief one-page, highly specific and targeted summary of relevant experience and qualifications to a fully detailed resumé, many CVs end up looking more less the same, with...
Mehr lesen...Does your CV show you at your best?
Looking for a new job can be a very stressful process. Even for people who are not really looking but who are approached by a headhunter/recruiter and asked if they might be interested in a position, the sudden need to prepare a good personal presentation can be a shock to the system. Everybody wants to make a good impression. The stakes may be high and the competition strong.
Recruiters know exactly what kind of person they are looking for. They have a profile of minimum requirements which include knowledge and experience, skill set, qualifications, etc. A standard CV for all job applications, simply listing previous employment and qualifications, is no longer enough. These CVs are quickly passed over, without a second...
Mehr lesen...6 Key Questions For Success with English - Part 5: Where and How?
Questions five and six are strongly connected because they can change the way you feel and therefore your performance. Firstly ‘Where?’, or more specifically, ‘Where will you be when you communicate in English?’ Thinking about the different places where you will use English can help you to prepare for any additional challenges that may present themselves. In a private, closed office environment you may feel at your most relaxed and comfortable because you are surrounded by your own things and you are in a familiar space. In a more open office situation there may be considerable levels of background noise which will have an impact on your listening abilities. You may also be more concerned about who is listening to...
