Fun, Supportive English Lessons Based on How Languages Are Acquired. Clear & Confident English | Conversation, Pronunciation, Grammar Hi! I’m Nicholas, an English tutor from Canada based in Japan. I help students speak more clearly, sound more natural, and feel more confident in real English conversations. I have experience teaching English as an ALT in Japanese elementary schools, and I have also taught one-on-one English lessons. My academic background is in linguistics, with a minor in Japanese, so I enjoy explaining how English works clearly and practically. My lessons are friendly, relaxed, and focused on real communication. 🎯 What You’ll Get ✅ Natural conversation practice with clear feedback ✅ Pronunciation support for clearer speaking ✅ Grammar explanations that make sense ✅ Useful corrections and better phrasing ✅ Beginner support in Japanese when helpful Most of my lessons focus on conversation, pronunciation, grammar, and everyday communication. We can talk about topics that interest you while also working on the English you need to improve. 🧠 My Teaching Style I combine my background in linguistics with practical language teaching experience. I am also interested in how people learn languages in classroom and tutoring settings, so my lessons include meaningful speaking practice, targeted feedback, and chances to build fluency step by step. You do not need to speak perfectly. Mistakes are part of learning. My goal is to help you speak more naturally, understand English more clearly, and become more confident.

Teacher Nicholas is the best teacher I have ever met on the platform.He's very attentive,friendly,responsible and professional.With a linguistic background, he could illustrate the principles of phonetics.He also has a wide-ranging knowledge across diverse fields which enabled me not only to improve my english skills, but also to be enlightened and inspired by the different perspectives of someone from another country.The first conversation flowed naturally without any awkwardness. It was just like talking with an old friend. Highly recommended.

He also explained grammar and taught me more natural ways to speak. He used lots of clear examples, which made everything easy to understand, and adjusted the lesson to match my English level. I also liked that he clearly explained what we would cover in the next lesson. His English was easy to understand and follow, and overall it was a very good lesson. I’d be happy to take another lesson with him. Thank you!

I had a really great experience in my lessons with Nicholas. From the very beginning, I felt very comfortable talking to him. The lessons felt very natural and conversational, but at the same time, I could tell that he really cares about how to help me improve.

Nicholas is a fun and patient teacher! So far,we’ve had two lessons and talked about lots of topics I wouldn’t think about or pay attention to. He always takes time to explain them carefully and write them down for me. Looking forward to our next class~
