English for Software Developers, Engineers & Tech Professionals

Improve your communication in meetings, stand-ups, technical discussions and interviews.

Many developers have strong technical skills but struggle to communicate confidently in English during real workplace situations.

Perhaps you can write code easily, but find it difficult to:

• Explain technical solutions clearly
• Participate confidently in Agile ceremonies
• Speak up during sprint planning and retrospectives
• Communicate with Product Owners and stakeholders
• Present ideas to customers or leadership teams
• Handle technical interviews in English
• Write professional emails, tickets and documentation
• Work effectively in international teams

That's where I can help.

As a former Programme Manager with extensive experience leading international technology teams, I understand both the technical and business sides of software delivery.

My coaching focuses on real-world situations, including:

Daily stand-ups
Sprint planning
Retrospectives
Backlog refinement
Technical design discussions
Architecture reviews
Incident and problem management
Stakeholder communication
Project updates
Technical interviews
Career progression conversations

Typical students include:

• Software Developers
• Senior Engineers
• Technical Leads
• QA Engineers
• DevOps Engineers
• Product Owners
• Scrum Masters
• Engineering Managers

Lessons are practical, personalised and based on your actual work situations rather than generic textbook exercises.

Whether you work with Java, Python, .NET, SAP, Cloud, AI, Data Engineering or any other technology stack, the goal is the same:

To help you communicate clearly, confidently and professionally in English.

Book lessons and let's identify the communication skills that will have the biggest impact on your career.

I provide personalised English coaching for professionals and business people who want to communicate more confidently and effectively in international environments.
My lessons are practical and tailored to each student’s individual needs, level and professional situation. Rather than following a standard textbook programme, I focus on the English you actually need for your work and everyday professional communication.

Go beyond common questioning and answering with AI - learn how to wield AI agents to massively enhance your benefit from using AI.

Use natural language to:

- build software
- automate tedious tasks
- create graphics and visualizations (including accurate charts)
- create animations for any project

For web/software developers:

- increase autonomy
- tools and functions
- hooks
- goals, loops
- sub-agents

Hotels, travel agencies and tour operators run on communication — enquiries, bookings, itineraries, reviews, and guests writing in several languages. Most of that work is repetitive. Much of it is exactly where AI genuinely helps, and most businesses are using it badly or not at all.

I spent twelve years in the travel industry, working with international bookings, ticketing and airline systems. I've spent the last two years building LLM tooling and training AI models. This class sits between those two things: how to apply AI to the daily work of a tourism or hospitality business.

You'll learn how to draft and answer guest enquiries faster without sounding like a machine. How to handle reviews — the straightforward ones and the difficult ones. How to produce itineraries, property descriptions and marketing copy from your own material. How to work across languages without hiring a translator for every message. And how to build repeatable workflows, so a task you do fifty times becomes a task you set up once.

This isn't about replacing your staff with a chatbot. It's about removing the repetitive work so your people can spend their time on guests.

By the end, you'll have a set of workflows built around your own business, not a list of tools you've heard of.

Learn SQL by writing real queries, not by memorizing theory.

I'm a working software engineer with a bachelor's degree in informatics, and I use SQL and relational databases in practice. I teach it step by step, with hands-on examples, so you understand what each query is doing and why.

I work with all major database systems: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle Database and SQLite. Whichever one your course, job or project uses, we can learn on that one and I'll point out the differences in syntax between them.

What we can cover:
- SELECT basics: filtering, sorting, grouping and aggregate functions
- JOINs (inner, left, right) and subqueries, explained visually
- Creating and modifying tables, keys, relationships and constraints
- Database design and normalization
- Indexes and writing queries that run faster
- Help with university or school assignments, exam preparation and practice tasks
- Preparing for a job interview or a first project that needs SQL

Lessons are 45 minutes long and adapted to your level. Complete beginners are very welcome, and if you already know the basics, we can go straight to the topics you find difficult. We work on example databases, or on your own assignment if you have one.

Lessons are available online, or in person in Zagreb. They can be held in English or Croatian.

Lessons are practical and interactive, allowing you to practise realistic scenarios and develop the language skills most relevant to your career. We will identify your strengths and areas for improvement, then tailor activities to help you make steady progress.

Whether you use English occasionally at work or want to feel more comfortable communicating in an international environment, we can work towards your goals together.

I'm a Computer Science master's student at TU Delft and I build with these tools every day. I've written and open-sourced a pipeline for working with AI coding agents, and a lot of that work was about finding where the output quietly goes wrong. That's the part most tutorials skip.

This class is for people who use AI at work, or are being told to, and want to actually get something out of it. No programming background needed.

We cover: writing a prompt that gets a usable answer the first time, giving the model your own documents and data to work from, using it for drafting, summarising, analysis and research, building a repeatable workflow instead of starting from scratch every time, and the important part, how to spot when it's confidently wrong.

We work on your actual tasks, not toy examples. Bring something real from your job and we'll build a workflow around it.

I teach in English and Polish.
