You’ve worked hard to reach this point in your career. You’re good at your job. You have the skills, the experience, and the ambition – but you feel that your English is holding you back.
You’re not struggling because you lack intelligence or ability. You’re struggling because nobody has ever helped you perform confidently in real English conversations and discussions.
“I really enjoyed Derek’s method of coaching because there is a big focus on speaking and building fluency. After a few sessions I already felt more confident and was losing my fear of speaking.”
Simon, CEO from Austria
There's a version of your career where your English reflects your actual ability. Where people hear you speak and immediately see the professional you are.
Right now, there's a gap between those two versions of you.
And every day that gap stays open, it's costing you — in opportunities, in relationships, in earning potential, in how you're seen.
The question isn't whether you can afford to fix it. It's whether you can afford not to.
This is where your transformation begins. After your application, if we're a good fit, I'll invite you to your free Professional English Impact Analysis. In this session we'll:
You'll leave with a clear understanding of your next step — whether we decide to work together or not.
This isn't just about learning more English — it's about performing with confidence in real conversations.
The Real-Time Communication Framework is built on 21 years of working with professionals in real international environments. It's built around one core insight - this isn't a knowledge problem. It's a performance problem. And performance is trainable.
You learn the exact phrases, responses, and communication strategies that professionals actually use in real workplace conversations - not textbook English, but the natural, confident language that professionals actually use every day.
We recreate the exact situations you face at work: meetings, discussions, informal conversations with colleagues and senior leaders - so you practice performing under real conditions, not theoretical ones.
Through repeated practice, targeted feedback, and supportive coaching, hesitation gives way to natural, confident communication. You don't just learn — you transform how you perform in English.
We turn insight into action from day one. After a quick alignment on your key communication challenges, you move straight into real-time conversation practice. No theory - you start performing immediately. By the end of the session, you'll already feel the difference.
Develop the skill of responding confidently in real time - even when you're not fully prepared. You'll learn the exact phrases, techniques, and mental strategies that let you speak up naturally without freezing, stalling, or losing your thread.
Bring your skills directly into the meeting room. Practice contributing confidently, handling unexpected questions, and managing interruptions. This is where you find your voice in fast-moving conversations with colleagues, clients, and senior leaders.
Master the art of informal professional conversation. Build rapport naturally with colleagues, clients, and senior leaders. Stop avoiding small talk - start using it as a powerful professional tool that builds relationships and raises your visibility.
Bring it all together. Formal meetings, informal conversations, unexpected questions, high-pressure moments - you'll handle them all with confidence and natural fluency. This is where everything clicks and your transformation becomes real.
This is where everything you've built comes together. You'll leave with your Personal Communication Playbook - a personalised set of strategies, phrases, and approaches built specifically for you - along with a clear plan to keep growing your confidence, visibility, and impact long after the programme ends.

“Working with Derek was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my professional English. From the start, the coaching felt structured, and focused – Derek guided me step by step and prepared me for high-pressure situations with realistic practice and lots of practical examples.
Since I finished the coaching with Derek, people have commented on how strong my English is, and I’ve noticed I speak more confidently. I recommend Derek to any professional who wants to sound more confident, more natural, and more “ready” when it really matters.”
Tommaso, IT Professional from Italy
After each session you'll receive a short, targeted challenge designed to help you apply what you've learned immediately in your working life. These are practical, real-world actions — not theoretical exercises — that build your confidence and fluency one step at a time.
This is where what you learn in your sessions takes root in your real working life. A self-paced course can give you knowledge — but expert coaching combined with real-world practice and personal commitment is what creates lasting results.
You'll also have direct WhatsApp access to Derek between sessions for questions and support when you need it.

Hi there! I’m Derek, Professional English Coach and founder of Derek Callan — English for Professionals.
For more than 21 years, I’ve worked with managers, executives, and professionals in international companies across Europe and beyond. During that time, I’ve helped hundreds of non-native professionals close the gap between their expertise and their English performance — and transform how they show up at work.
What I’ve learned after more than two decades of coaching is this: the biggest challenge for most professionals isn’t grammar or vocabulary. It’s confidence and fluency in real conversations. The ability to respond naturally, think on your feet, and communicate in a way that reflects your true intelligence and ability.
That’s why everything I do is built around one core philosophy: fluency and confidence before perfection.
“I really enjoyed the sessions. Derek was responsive and engaged, adapting quickly to any changes or challenges I faced along the way. I’ve improved a lot and feel much more confident now. I will definitely come back for more sessions, and I highly recommend working with him.”
Reem, Digital Transformation Consultant from Saudi Arabia
The Visibility Shift is a brand new programme — and to celebrate its launch, I'm opening the first five places at a special founding rate.
This rate will never be available again once the five founding places are filled. The programme then returns to its full investment of $1,500.
This is not a discount. This is an invitation to be part of something from the very beginning.

“I started working with Derek because I needed more confidence when communicating with international partners. Thanks to Derek and his fun and effective way of coaching, I made big steps in speaking more confidently and fluently. As a result, I have been able to build strong relationships with partners all over the world and this has had a massive impact on our business. Thank you, Derek!”
Christian, Sales Executive from Austria
“I chose to work with Derek because I had difficulties in starting conversations, lacked confidence when speaking, and faced challenges in improving my overall fluency. I like Derek’s coaching approach, because he provides clear explanations and constructive feedback. The practical exercises, which involve speaking in real-life scenarios, were very beneficial. As a result, my confidence has significantly increased, and I now feel more assured in my conversation skills for professional interactions.”
David, Financial Controller from Spain
“I found that I have become more talkative. I guess partly because I’m more confident, and partly because I’m actively looking for chances to practise. I even took the initiative to start conversations with people during our break time today, and it felt great! Thank you again for your advice. I’m feeling more motivated and ready to take even more accountability for myself!”
Shawna, Researcher from China
This programme is designed for ambitious professionals who want their English communication to reflect the level of expertise they already bring to their work… and to realise their true career potential.
I work with a small number of committed clients at a time so that every participant receives focused, high quality coaching and achieves meaningful progress.

What’s the salary difference between your current role and the next level upyour dream role?
For most professionals, that’s somewhere between $5,000 and $20,000 a year — sometimes more.
Now think about the last time you stayed silent in a meeting when you had something valuable to say. The last time you avoided a conversation with a senior colleague. The last time an opportunity went to someone else. because you lacked the confidence to speak out and grab it for yourself.
How many of those moments have there been?
And how many more can you afford?
Because here’s the truth — your expertise is already there. Your value is already there. The only thing standing between where you are now and where you deserve to be is the gap between how good you are and how clearly that comes across in English.
Close that gap — and everything else starts to move.
One promotion. One important client relationship. One conversation that finally goes the way it should.
That’s what’s on the other side of this.
“What I liked most about Derek’s Coaching was that I had a lot of opportunities to speak and practise in real-life scenarios. The direct feedback and tips I got from Derek were extremely helpful.
It’s extremely important that I can confidently engage in conversation, and take part in meetings at an international level. These are exactly the skills I gained through your coaching methods. Many thanks once again and keep it up.”
Oliver, CEO from Austria
“I’m working in an international context with English speaking clients and I always struggled to talk to them with confidence. I really didn’t know what to say – how to respond to some questions and keeping the conversation going was a challenge.
Through Derek’s coaching, I had the chance to develop my speaking skills in different real-life scenarios and this was really helpful to get rid of my shyness: now I know how to handle different situations and my English vocabulary has improved a lot. I recommend Derek’s coaching to anyone who is struggling with a lack of confidence while speaking in English.”
Adele, Consultant from Italy
“I first contacted you because I wasn’t happy with my English, and I wanted to improve my conversation skills for business situations. I have to say I’m really happy with the results. Not only did I improve my conversation skills, but I also feel much more confident and my fluency is better than before. Your approach is both effective and enjoyable, making every session a valuable learning experience. I highly recommend your coaching.”
Mike, Entrepreneur from Austria
