Willkommen auf der offiziellen Website von Malaika Kusumi. Hier beginnt Ihre Reise zu einer neuen Sprache und einem neuen Denken.
This warm, humorous, and subtly insightful guide helps adults reconnect with English in a relaxed, human way. Through stories, metaphors, dialogue, and imaginative visuals, it makes learning feel lighter — and sometimes even fun.
Malaika Kusumi is a UCLA graduate and a Business English coach with decades of experience helping professionals find their voice—in English and in life.
Born in Boston and based in Germany, she’s taught everyone from bankers to candy-makers at companies like Deutsche Bank, KPMG, Robeco, Nordea, Ferrero, Commerzbank, Deutsche Börse (German Stock Market), and Linklaters. Her approach is anything but textbook—mixing humor, real-life application, and just the right dose of “Where’s the beef?”
“Malaika is a wonderful English teacher, but not only that, she is also an English, Business, and Communication Coach, which is much more than just a teacher. She is a strong motivator who helps me find and show my strengths. It is fun to study English with her in that she considers fun an essential element. I can see by my fast progress that it really does work.” — Julia Esser, CIIA
“Malaika was my business English coach for 3 years. She offers tailor-made business English with a 360-degree coaching view. This is highly valuable, efficient, practical, and immediately usable — not only in a foreign language. She provides more than just an English class.” — Fabian Stube CILAons
“Malaika Kusumi perfectly understood how to prepare me in a very short time for a public presentation in English and was instrumental in helping me improve my language skills. She demands top performance, but also knows the path to get there. She masterfully combines the skills of a trainer with those of a coach — focused and supportive. Exactly the right person for anyone who doesn’t want to take shortcuts, but truly wants to learn and understand!“ — Dr. Bernhard Albert, Inhaber und Gründer vos Foresight Solutions
