Hello! With 20+ years in UK management and 12 years in Russia, I’ve mastered the art of impactful communication—helping professionals and learners express themselves with clarity and confidence. Whether you’re preparing for interviews, presentations, or casual chats, I specialize in making English feel natural and enjoyable. My approach blends real-world experience with energetic coaching, so you’ll not only speak well but own the room. Let’s turn your words into your strongest asset!

Me as a Teacher
Even the hardest task can be explained in a simple way, and I strongly believe that my responsibility is to make conversational English as easy as possible, enjoyable and rewarding. I have been told that my soft South London accent is easy to understand and that my friendly approach is both welcome and results oriented.
Regarding business and management topics I believe in simplicity, clarity and good solid understanding which is best for everyone.
Learning or developing a language should be an adventure, an adventure for both student and teacher, step by step we identify the challenges, make a plan and follow through until you’ve reached your linguistic goal.
My lessons & teaching style
I have a relaxed attitude to teaching, if asked I'd describe my style as patient, encouraging, motivational, enthusiastic and energetic.
Different students learn languages differently. Some people learn through grammar and a text book, some react better to the power of imagery, and some people just don’t know. It is my duty to find out how you learn and adapt the methodology accordingly.
My lessons here on italki are free flowing, structured or topic based (topics available). Together we will find the right way for you to learn effectively, efficiently and most importantly - enjoyably!
* Please note that I do not teach children.

I really felt being interviewed during our mock job interview yesterday. Nigel carefully explained all my mistakes and following "maybes". Just invaluable experience.
