About Specialisms

I am deeply passionate about the power of communication, and I bring a warm, compassionate and supportive approach to my coaching. My goal is always to create a space where clients feel encouraged to explore, grow and discover their authentic voice.

My journey began as an ESL tutor, working in Spain and Cambodia for over 10 years, supporting CEOs and professionals to communicate with clarity and impact in English. Alongside this, I trained as an actor and performed on both the West End and Broadway. With a Master’s in Voice, I went on to specialise as a voice, accent and dialect coach – a field I’ve now worked in for over a decade. I have taught at leading drama schools including RADA, LAMDA and the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, and coached actors for film (HBO, Netflix) and theatre (RSC, Riverside Studios).

For the past decade I have also coached professionals, CEOs and businesses in communication, presentation skills, confidence, presence and impact – work I continue to find profoundly rewarding. Coaching, for me, is not only about building technique but empowering people to communicate with confidence and unlock opportunities they never thought possible.

I feel privileged to be part of London Speech Workshop. What excites me most about the Serlin Method is its clear structure, practical tools and powerful insights, which create real and lasting change –  I have seen first-hand how it transforms not only people’s professional communication, but also personal lives.

I did the effective communication course with Hannah. I was struggling to understand what I needed to do to portray the ‘executive presence’ I kept getting feedback about. I’ve now learnt how to use my voice, words and body to make an impression. I feel truly ‘unstuck’, and that I have the tools and know how I need to progress my career. And it’s not just technicalities, it encompasses mindset, psychology, and it’s superbly organised, meaning you get the chance to learn, get feedback, practice and try again. Hannah is a brilliant teacher; she builds a warm and safe learning space and is incredibly inspiring, wise and empathetic.

I came to this course wanting to work on my communication skills and accent softening, and I’m so glad I did. Before starting, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the process has been really supportive from start to finish.
My coach Hannah Benjamin has been fantastic – she gives you so many useful, practical tools that you can actually take away and practise in your everyday life. I’ve noticed a real difference in how I communicate and feel so much more confident in conversations. It never felt rushed or overwhelming, and I always felt comfortable throughout.
If you’re on the fence about joining, I’d really encourage you to take the leap. It’s made a bigger difference than I anticipated, and I can already see the impact it’s having day to day.
Highly recommend to anyone looking to develop their communication skills!

A brilliant experience – practical tools and genuine support
I joined this course to work on my communication skills and accent softening, and it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made. From the very start, the process felt welcoming and well-structured.

My coach Hannah Benjamin has been absolutely brilliant. She provides so many practical, useful tools that you can take away and incorporate into your daily practice straight away – it never feels like theory for the sake of it. Everything is grounded and actionable.

I’ve already noticed a real improvement in how I communicate and carry myself in conversations, and my confidence has grown so much. If you’re considering it but aren’t quite sure, I’d say go for it – it’s genuinely worth it.

Highly recommend to anyone looking to improve their communication and feel more confident in their day to day life.
