About Venessa
Hi! I'm Venessa, a writer, editor, and educator with more than 20 years of experience working with language and communication. I recently earned my CELTA with a Pass B, adding formal English-language teaching training to a career built around helping people communicate clearly and effectively.
Much of my professional career has involved finding the right words for the right audience. I've worked as an editor, writer, publishing consultant, and educator, helping people communicate ideas clearly, develop their writing, and make language work for them. That experience gives me a particular interest in helping professionals build the English skills they need to communicate with confidence at work.
I'm also learning Italian, so I know from the other side of the desk how intimidating it can be to communicate in a language when you don't yet feel completely confident. I bring that perspective to my teaching, along with a practical, encouraging approach and plenty of patience for the messy parts of learning.
When I'm not working with words, I'm playing with words. I'm a fiction writer with an MA and MFA in Writing Popular Fiction, and I still spend a lot of my free time reading, writing, and thinking about how language works.
If you're ready to make your professional English clearer, more precise, and more confident, let's get started.

Business Writing & Communication
Build the English skills you need to communicate clearly and confidently at work. We'll work on emails, messages, vocabulary, tone, and phrasing, combining hands-on writing practice with discussion, real-world scenarios, and speaking practice. Bring a specific challenge you're facing at work, or we'll work through realistic situations from your field. You'll leave with practical tools you can use—and the confidence to use them.
Speaking for the Workplace
Interviews, presentations, meetings, negotiations—the moments where speaking well really matters. We'll practice through realistic professional situations and role-play, then look at what worked and what you can adjust: word choice, tone, pacing, and how you respond when someone disagrees with you. We can focus on a specific situation you're preparing for or use general practice to build your skills.
Professional English: Grammar & Precision
Precise language builds trust in business. These lessons focus on the grammar, vocabulary, and word choice that help your English sound sharp and professional. We'll work with formal structures, nuanced phrasing, and vocabulary specific to your field, using real business contexts rather than generic textbook examples. Speaking, listening, and writing can all be part of the work, depending on what you want to improve.
These lessons can stand alone or be combined. We can focus deeply on one area or build a broader professional English program around the skills you use most at work.
Recommendations

I have known Venessa for about 3 years now. I met her through our shared love of writing. She is an outstanding, compassionate, and patient teacher and facilitator. She has a way of explaining things very simply without making it feel like she is talking down to you. Her lectures and courses have always been very enjoyable, maintaining the balance between fun and highly informative with a skill that I have seen few master. She is thorough and patient while answering questions, even if they are repeat questions and always makes understanding for all students her primary goal.
