Do you worry that being second-language English may be holding you back?
I know from experience what it's like to feel disadvantaged due to not being a native English speaker.
Now I use my 20-plus years of experience in British and international TV news to help second-language English journalists, broadcasters and public speakers overcome the linguistic and cultural challenges of not having English as their mother tongue.
Through my course Find your Authentic Voice I will help you communicate more clearly, effectively and confidently in English, whether it's for a keynote speech, a TV interview or just to feel more comfortable in a business meeting. Because of, and not despite, your foreign accent.

"Barbara's session was more effective than I expected. She quickly grasped my priorities and kept the conversation focused on what actually mattered. Barbara doesn't tell you what you want to hear. She offers concrete, tailored suggestions that are genuinely useful. If you're looking for a coaching experience grounded in authenticity rather than buzzwords, I'd recommend Barbara without hesitation."

Who is Barbara Serra?
I am an Italian-born, London-based, award-winning journalist, TV news presenter and author with 20-plus years' experience working for the worldās leading news broadcasters.
Currently a news anchor for Sky News and writer, Iāve been a presenter/reporter for the BBC, Al Jazeera English and Channel 5 news, where I became the first non-native English speaker to present a prime-time news programme on British TV.
As one of the very few second-language English broadcasters to have worked at the highest level of British and international news, Iām passionate about how the use of English as the global language impacts the way we see the world. I firmly believe greater inclusion of non-native English speakers is essential, not just for journalism but for countless other fields, if they are to be truly diverse and representative.
