"Business training with Martin Hooper is Champions League! Since 2007, he has supported me at irregular intervals in English presentations, workshops and in the constant development of my English skills. The 1:1 coaching sessions are highly individualized and tailored exactly to my needs and learning pace. Martin lives the basic attitude "Making mistakes is allowed!" and motivates me to learn and implement what is new. The training is a perfect mix of theory and practice, conversation and practical exercises, and humor and seriousness. His coaching is always respectful, appreciative, uplifting and highly professional - this is exactly how "outstanding" business English training should be!"

Since becoming a partner at intercom in 2004, I have been responsible for the seminars & workshops – throughout Germany and Austria, and also for the coordination & organisation of a team of workshop trainers.  I have been co-Managing Director of intercom since January 2018.  Most of my training currently involves one-on-one presentations coaching and preparation for various projects, as well as leading workshops for groups in Hamburg and throughout Germany.

Specialist areas include

  • Coaching and training for presentations
  • English for Purchasing
  • English for Human Resources
  • Train-the-Trainer – both in internal workshops and for German trainers wishing to offer their seminars in English
  • Seminar and workshop planning
  • over 10 years’ experience of teaching academic workshops to PhD students, especially presentations and rhetorical skills
