I have a Master's degree in Applied Linguistics as well as CELTA and DELTA qualifications. I've worked for the British Council, International House and The University of Sheffield.
I offer high-quality lessons, tailored to your needs.
I'm looking forward to working with you!
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

I felt very comfortable in the lessons, as I felt free to express my ideas and make mistakes. I was very worried about the exam, but Nick calmed me down. So now i am just a chill guy with a brilliant feedback on my speaking skills. 10 out 10, guys!
