Certified ESL teacher with 15 years of experience. Focus on speaking, pronunciation and vocab. Hi, I'm Nicole! I'm an English teacher from the USA. Many students study long-term with me, which you can see by comparing the total lessons taught to total students (averaging over 10 classes per student.) Learning languages (Portuguese, Spanish and German) has opened up so many wonderful opportunities for me, and my hope is that it will do the same for my students. I was certified in TESL by the University of Minnesota in 2011, and I've taught adult learners in the US, Brazil, Spain, Germany, and the Czech Republic. When I'm not teaching, I love to be outside! I enjoy traveling, hiking, biking, paddle boarding, and dancing. My #1 goal is for you to speak as much as possible during our time together! Whether you are outgoing or shy, I can guarantee you that we won't run out of things to talk about - besides being a grammar nerd and pronunciation expert, I have the "superpower" of being able to keep up a conversation with absolutely anyone! I provide immediate correction to students. Private classes are the best way for students to identify their recurring mistakes and to get personalized help on the areas that they find difficult or confusing. Sometimes, a gentle reminder is enough, and other times, we will work more thoroughly on a specific pronunciation or grammar point. I like to keep classes light-hearted and fun! I keep a Google Drive folder for each student for notes and (optional) homework and share the link with the student after our first class. For those who wa...

Awesome class, really informative. It is rare to find someone who can clearly show you what you're doing wrong and how to improve. The sessions have been tailored to me and my needs, and they have been 100% on point.

I have been studying English with Nicole for a long time and I want to leave an extremely positive review. All your mistakes during the conversation will not go unnoticed. Homework will inspire you and you will learn a lot of new and interesting things, which also cannot but motivate. Also, often Nicole gave the lesson more time than planned, for which special thanks. I recommend to everyone and thank you very much!

She's a good teacher, patient and professional. She keeps the class engaging, allowing you to learn a lot and improve. She has a good class structure and identifies and corrects your grammar and pronunciation mistakes. At the end of the class, she gives you exercises to practice.

Nicole is a fantastic teacher. She's friendly, knowledgeable, dedicated and very professional. The feedback she's provided has been extremely useful for me to improve my speaking and writing skills. The material she's prepared for our lessons (videos, questions, homework, etc.) has been both engaging and effective. I can't recommend her enough.

Nicole is a great teacher! She’s very patient and always tries to guide us to improve our English skills by correcting our mistakes with kindness and understanding. A great advantage is that she can speak Portuguese and understands our difficulties in pronouncing some words.

Foi a minha primeira aula no ITalki e adorei a minha aula com a Nicole que foi super paciente e gentil comigo que tenho um inglês super básico e estou me desafiando a usar a plataforma para tentar realmente aprender a falar/me comunicar e não focar apenas em cursos tradicionais que focam muito em gramática (embora tbm seja importante) e pouco em conversação! O português dela é perfeito o que ajuda muito nas dúvidas e nas observações que ela vai fazendo durante a aula! Agradeço a Nicole pela dedicação, paciência e ajuda! :)
