Alex Shakeshaft

I am a clear, patient, and motivating tutor focused on helping learners improve their communication, presentation, and professional confidence. My lessons are aimed at students, early-career professionals, and aspiring entrepreneurs who want to express their ideas clearly and make a strong impression in academic, business, or interview settings.

My background includes leading projects and pitching innovations at a national level, having been a UK finalist in major entrepreneurship competitions such as the Santander X UK Awards and the Tata Varsity Pitch. These experiences have developed my ability to communicate complex ideas with clarity and impact—skills I want to help others build.

My lessons are interactive and goal-focused. I tailor each session to your personal objectives, whether that’s improving articulation, enhancing presentation skills, or refining communication for public speaking or interviews. I also integrate career advice and general professional development guidance to help you strengthen workplace confidence, leadership, and employability skills. Lessons often include real-world examples, presentation practice, and career-focused communication exercises to make every session practical and engaging. Through guided discussions, feedback, and practical exercises, you’ll develop both fluency and confidence.

I focus on creating a supportive and enjoyable environment where you can practise freely, learn from mistakes, and see consistent progress. Each session is designed to strengthen your ability to express yourself naturally and confidently.

By the end of our sessions, you’ll feel more confident speaking in different settings, presenting your ideas, and communicating effectively. My aim is to help you unlock your potential and communicate with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
