Crash Courses 

A wedding toast, a business trip, meeting your partner's family abroad… You don't need all the words, just the right ones. I design short, focused courses that prepare you for real-life moments with confidence and authenticity.

Crash

Short, Focused, Impactful

Life doesn't wait for you to become fluent. When you have an important moment coming up—a family gathering abroad, a destination wedding, an international conference, or a relocation—you need targeted preparation that gets you ready fast.

Family & Social Events

Meet your partner's family, give a wedding toast, or participate in celebrations abroad. Learn the phrases that help you connect and belong.

Relocation Prep

Moving abroad? Get a head start with essential language for daily life: shopping, healthcare, banking, and making friends in your new community.

Business Trips

Prepare for international conferences, client meetings, or short-term assignments. Practice industry-specific vocabulary and professional small talk.

What You'll Learn

Essential Phrases

The exact words and expressions for your specific scenario, not generic textbook language.

Confidence Techniques

Strategies to manage anxiety, recover from mistakes, and stay present in conversations.

Cultural Context

Understand the unspoken rules, customs, and etiquette that make communication smooth.

Real-World Practice

Role-play actual scenarios you'll encounter, from ordering coffee to giving a heartfelt speech.

How It Works

Intensive Schedule: 2-4 sessions per week to maximize retention before your event

Online Delivery: Learn from anywhere via video call with flexible scheduling

Customized Materials: You'll receive vocabulary lists, audio recordings, and practice exercises tailored to your scenario

Follow-up Support: Post-course check-in to see how it went and address any gaps

Success stories

An incredible teacher! She totally tailors lessons to the needs of the student and is great at explaining new words and concepts. Lygia is such an intelligent and interesting person that speaking lessons with her feel more like natural, interesting conversations than classes. Would highly recommend to anyone!
