Things you can use today.
Free and open — no signup, no email address, nothing sent anywhere. The reference sheets download as PDFs: print them, put them next to your screen, hand them round your team.
These are the same materials I use in sessions. If they are useful on their own, take them and go; you do not owe me anything for that.
Meeting phrase bank
Thirty-six phrases for opening, clarifying, buying time, disagreeing and closing — in English and Spanish side by side, with notes on when each one actually works.
Open the phrase bankEmail phrase bank
Thirty phrases for the emails that are actually hard: making a request, chasing without nagging, saying no, and apologising when something has gone wrong.
Open the phrase bankFalse friends that cost you at work
Nineteen English-Spanish false friends, starting with the ones that change what you have agreed to and the ones that get numbers wrong — compromise, eventually, and the billion that is not a billion.
Open the listThe grammar traps that come from Spanish
Twelve structures that come up in nearly every session with a Spanish speaker, including people who have worked in English for years — missing articles, invisible subjects, double negatives — each with the reason behind it.
