After spending more than 20 years living and working in Hong Kong, I returned to Britain with a completely different perspective on my own country.

Living overseas taught me that speaking English is only part of the challenge. Understanding the people, the culture and the unspoken rules is what really helps you feel at home.

When I came back to Britain, I realised just how many things we British people do without ever thinking about them.

Why do we queue so patiently?

Why do we apologise when something isn't our fault?

Why do we say, "We should do coffee sometime," when we don't always arrange it?

These are exactly the kinds of situations that can confuse newcomers, even when their English is excellent.

Today, through my YouTube videos, free guides and coaching, I help international professionals, newcomers and English learners better understand British culture, communication and everyday life.

My goal is simple:

To help you feel more confident living, working and communicating in Britain.
