Fiona MacLeod

About Fiona

I design and teach English programmes for law firms, banks and in-house legal teams. My courses are built around your own documents: contracts, client emails, compliance reports and negotiations.

I trained as a lawyer before moving into teaching, and I've run in-company programmes across Spain, Portugal and Latin America for fifteen years. I can provide progress reports for HR and L&D teams.

Why this works: Writes for the buyer, not just the learner. Mentioning HR and L&D reporting is what corporate clients need to see before they get in touch.

• Financial English
• Corporate groups
• Contract language

Levels taught

• A1Beginner
• A2Elementary
• B1Intermediate
• B2Upper-int.
• C1Advanced
• C2Proficiency

Why this works: Four focused specialisms beat ten vague ones. Learners filter the directory by subject and level, so precise choices put you in front of the right students.

What your first lesson looks like

1. A needs-analysis call with the team lead or L&D contact.
2. A short level check for each participant.
3. A proposal with course length, group sizes and reporting.

Why this works: For company work, describing the process (needs analysis, level check, proposal) shows she can be trusted with a budget.
