Hi! I am a South African woman in my late 20s. I love meeting new people and teaching online. Some of my hobbies include reading, listening to podcasts and spending time with friends and family, including my 3 dogs and 2 cats. I have an honors degree in Genetics, but have decided that the science world isn't for me, so here I am! I look forward to meeting you!
Me as a Teacher
I have over 3 years of experience teaching English online and mainly working with adult students. I have helped students prepare for interviews and pass tests, including the IELTS test. I have access to books and teaching websites that I use to set up lesson plans and have also built up a large list of topics for conversation lessons.
My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style can be different from student to student, depending on what the student needs from me, but I am naturally easy-going and relaxed. I am also very patient and understanding. I try my best to make students feel comfortable to make mistakes and learn from them.
My lessons can be as simple as having a conversation, or it can include worksheets and exercises for improving your General English, or even Business English. I'm also flexible when it comes to scheduling and lesson planning.
Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions!

I would recommend Nicola as a teacher without hesitation. She was extremely personable throughout the lesson, so we talked easily about a wide array of topics. Anybody interested in English or Afrikaans culture should take a lesson. Thanks again for all your help. See you soon.
