Hi everyone!
My name’s Nico, I am French yet I am the only one in my family who was born in France. Indeed, I was raised by a Venezuelan dad and a Spanish mother. I therefore grew up in a multicultural background, which spurred me to learn and teach foreign languages. After my 18th birthday, I moved to the UK where I stayed for 5 years, and obtained a teaching certificate (PTTLS) as well as worked as a French teacher. I then moved to Spain where I graduated in languages, and eventually moved to Italy where I’ve been living and working as an English and French teacher for Italian and international companies. Apart from teaching, I am a Shiatsu practitioner, and I love hiking in the mountains.Ik als leerkracht
From my experience, I have realized that most of my students who struggle with learning languages do so because of bad memories from school that led to low self-confidence.
Plus, their fear of making mistakes adds up tension and impedes them from enjoying the whole process.
That’s why my main priority, as a teacher, is to teach students the right approach to speaking without fear of making mistakes, and if the fear does arise, how to welcome it and relax into it. Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
As a firm believer that communicating in a relaxed and simple way is more important than speaking perfectly at all cost, I make my students practice a lot on listening and conversation. Once they feel they’re in a safe zone, we can tackle together Grammar, tweak Pronunciation and expand Vocabulary.
The focus of my lessons is on the speaking side of things, even though I help with text corrections, sentence rewriting and translation (provided it’s from and to a language I know).
I make my students practice in all tenses early on, teach them idiomatic phrases, I make them ask questions related to the topic we’re dealing with, so they can develop a solid fluency.Mijn lesmateriaal

A delightful hour. Nico is congenial, helpful, encouraging. We laughed a lot, but I also felt supported and the possibility of a real collaboration.
