Jimi+Bernie | Language Mediation Services
Language Mediation

Where native English speakers and foreign English-speaking peers, colleagues, clients, suppliers, etc + companies come together... is where you need language mediation by a mother tongue (English).


'Know how' matters

When you also need more than language. You need know how + perspectives of experienced business managers, who are mother tongue English.

We take care of the confusion, ambiguity, mixed signals and nuances which can trip up even quite competent foreign speakers, or leave them open to (mis-) interpretation. Mistakes often risk being unnoticed or manipulated.
