About Sophie

I'm Sophie, a London-born voice coach and improv comedy teacher. I teach improv comedy at the UK's largest Improv Comedy company and I run The Rhetoric: School of Improvised Public Speaking, offering in-person group classes and corporate training.

I offer one-to-one work online for Russian speakers working in British English who want to be more effective when they speak at work. Pitches, meetings, presentations, networking, Toastmasters, interviews and panels can be mastered and enjoyed when you know how to be confident as yourself in English.

I've worked with a lot of Russian professionals and I'm aware there are 2 main difficulties you face: your voice (pitch, intonation and accent) doesn't always show your true intentions to native English speakers, and you find it hard to be at ease and confident when speaking up in front of groups or figures of authority. The result is your expertise and desire to contribute are often misunderstood and overlooked.

We work on:
 Accent reduction and speaking clearly and confidently in English under pressure
 Body language and voice: breath, pace, projection, presence  Understanding a British or international audience and adapting in the moment
 Handling Q&A, interruptions, and questions you didn't prepare for  Toastmasters Table Topics and impromptu speaking
 Reducing the perfectionism loop that slows you down mid-sentence

My method draws on science-backed, evidence-based voice training and improvisational performance. This is not stand-up comedy and you will not be asked to be funny. The improv side is about learning to respond rather than rehearse, which is a skill that transfers directly to real meetings and real presentations.

I also use some somatic, hypnotic protocols alongside the voice and improv work. These are focused visualisation techniques that quiet the inner editor and build confidence at a level that trying harder cannot get to. My Russian clients often tell me this is the part that changes things fastest.

I have a Master's degree in Professional Voice Practice from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, and a Cambridge certificate in Teaching English as a Foreign Language. I teach for Hoopla and run my own company, The Rhetoric. I host shows and perform at London's first improv comedy theatre and have performed, directed and taught in several countries across Europe and Asia.

My clients include the UK Government, the NHS, Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Traveloka, local councils, law firms, university lecturers, academics, start-ups and solo entrepreneurs.

I've taught hundreds of professionals from around the world to speak with confidence in English.

As a workplace mediator I had a 93% success rate and trained in-house mediators for companies across the UK.

Born in London, I lived in a few countries in Europe and Asia, and came back to live near Greenwich, where time is made in big batches and shipped out all over the world.
