British English Teacher | Fluency, Confidence, Natural Communication | Cambridge Exams (B1-C2) I’m a native British English teacher with over 7 years of experience helping B1–C2 learners develop fluency, expand their vocabulary, and express themselves more clearly and confidently. I’ve taught students from all over the world and previously worked at a well-known language school in Moscow. I’ve also lived in France and Germany, and I’m currently learning Russian, so I understand the challenges of learning a language! In our lessons, we focus on: ✔ speaking more naturally and building confidence ✔ expanding your vocabulary and improving fluency ✔ expressing your ideas clearly and effectively Lessons are focused on real communication, with a mix of conversation and guided practice where needed. I can also help you understand and practise grammar where it’s useful. You’ll have plenty of time to speak and practise, while developing your fluency and confidence. I also prepare students for Cambridge exams (FCE, CAE and CPE) and can support you across all parts of the exam, including speaking, writing, reading, and Use of English. We can focus on specific areas you find challenging, and develop the language, accuracy, and confidence to succeed. I aim to create a supportive and comfortable environment where you feel confident speaking and expressing yourself. Lessons are adapted to your goals and level, so we can focus on what you need most.

Nichola has a rare talent - she can teach students who have already achieved C1/C2 level of English :) Her lessons are always well-prepared and exceptionally useful. CPE preparation can be an enjoyable pastime once you have Nichola as your teacher. Besides, Nichola is a friendly, supportive and highly knowledgeable person. This is the case when our lessons greatly exceeded my expectations. :)

Nichola is a great tutor! She’s kind, friendly and really professional. In addition, she uses a personalised approach. I’m planning to pass a CPE exam, so I have to have not only a good command of English but also know a lot about the structure of the exam. Without a shadow of a doubt, I can say that Nichola is a right person to help me. She patiently answers all my questions, explains everything in detail and gives feedback. Time flies when we’re talking :) Thanks a lot, Nichola!

Finally, I received the result of my CPE exam. Thanks to Nichola's invaluable help, I managed to achieve a Grade A. Nichola knows the format of this exam like the back of her hand, and that makes all the difference. Especially in the Writing and Speaking papers, it is absolutely essential to receive feedback that is as closely aligned as possible with the Cambridge standard and she excels in this extremely specific skill. She also recreated the Speaking test conditions so faithfully that, when I walked into the exam room on the day of the test, I felt a level of control I never thought I would have when I first started preparing. It took me a long time to prepare for this exam because I simply didn't have the required level at the beginning. Nichola first guided me in building that level and then helped me refine my exam strategies. Again, I worked extremely hard, but without her I would never have achieved a Grade A. Of that I am fairly sure.
