About Joey

Is the talk built, but still hard to follow—or hard to stand up and deliver?

A presentation is a short story you tell on a clock. I’m Joey, an American linguist and a full professor at a major university. I hold a PhD in linguistics. For decades I have taught students how to build an argument, how to order a talk, and how to say it in English a room can actually follow.

I work with you on your slides and your script. I do not write the speech for you. We use the same three tools I use in writing: Joseph Williams’ Style: Clarity and Grace (characters as subjects, actions as verbs), Helen Sword’s The Writer’s Diet (cut zombie nouns and wasted words), and story logic (a problem, a struggle with evidence, a resolution the audience can see). That is what makes a talk readable on the slide and interesting in the room.

We meet on Google Meet. You present. I coach.

Contact me if you want a guide who will show you what to change in the deck and in the delivery—not slogans about “confidence.”

Stuck on a class presentation, a conference talk, or a defense—and the slides still have no spine?

You’re the one who has to stand up. I’m Joey. I help you get the structure right so you can deliver it yourself.

Plan

Send the assignment or talk goal, the slides, and any script.
On Google Meet we fix the spine: one claim, slide order, what to cut.

You run a section. I stop you where the audience would get lost. You leave with three tasks.

A typical 50 minutes

What this talk must do → the story of the argument → two or three slides and a dry run → your next steps. I coach. I don’t write it for you.

Who it’s for

Undergrads with a graded presentation. Graduate students with a seminar, conference paper, or defense. International students at US universities. Not a Toastmasters pep talk with no content. Not “please write my speech.”
