Yes, I’m a Square Dancer. And No, It Doesn’t Make My English Advice Less Serious.

Too many German professionals think they have to sound serious and perfect in English to be respected. The result? They hide their quirks. They flatten their personality. They end up sounding stiff, even robotic.

Here’s the truth: quirks are what make people remember you. They show you’re human. They build trust. They make conversations feel real, not rehearsed.

When I tell clients that I do square dancing, they laugh. And then they lean in. Because it’s unexpected. It’s personal. And it makes me more than just “the English coach.”

Your quirks don’t make you less professional in English. They make you more memorable.
