NickMe as a Teacher
I am a trained IELTS speaking examiner and I am experienced in preparing people for the speaking and writing parts of the test.
I teach general English and prepare lessons that respond to your needs and requests. My lessons & teaching style
My aim is to get YOU speaking (or writing - you choose!) as much as possible, with my input and support. In this way, you can practice the language we're studying. I give you feedback on this, and that's how you improve!
To find out if you like my teaching style, I think the best way is to book a trial lesson and meet me. I look forward to helping you learn English!My teaching material

In my lessons with Nick, we have interesting conversations about all sorts of things: travel destinations, literature, song lyrics, films, British culture and much more. Nick has a great sense of which vocabulary is helpful for me, so that I am well supported on my way to become more natural and authentic in the English language. Thanks a bunch!
