Stop freezing. Start speaking.
For intermediate English language learners
who understand a lot but struggle to speak out loud.
I will help you find your voice in a calm and practical way.
Hello, I´m Michelle... and I used to be "Quiet Michelle"
When I moved from Canada to Portugal I had zero Portuguese. I suddenly found myself silent in social situations...not becuase I didn´t have anything to say, but because I couldn´t say it.
That experience changed everything. It gave me deep compassion for learners who know English but freeze when it´s time to speak.
Now, I help intermediate learners unlock their voice in English with coaching that´s warm and real. Together, we build calm, ease, and flow throughThe Four Supports.
You´ve done the work. Now let´s make it work for you.
How we can work together
Together in English
A supportive small-group program where you practice in a safe space, grow step by step, and sharethe journey with others who understand what it feels like to get stuck.
Inside the program you will:
- Speak out loud every week with gentle guidance and encouragement
- Take part in real conversations, not just classroom-style exercises
-Develop calm routines that help you keep improving outside the sessions
-Shift gently from self-criticism or fear to small wins that help you grow
Programs and Courses
By the time people find me, they´ve usually had enough lessons, rules, and drills to last a lifetime. What they don´t have is the chance to use English in a way that feels safe, useful, and real.
That´s the difference with my courses and coaching programs. You don´t grind through lists or repeated drills. You practice in a ways that stick because they make sense.
My approach rests on what I call The Four Supports: creating calm, setting goals that matter, learing through real conversation, and being guided step by step. These supports are what help you shift from silent study mode to speaking in daily life.
