Hello everyone! I am a friendly and dedicated TEFL-certified British English teacher with over six years of experience teaching English online. I love helping learners gain confidence in conversation, build vocabulary, and prepare for Cambridge exams, including PET, FCE, CAE, and CPE.
I spent three years in Moscow working at a respected language school, and I have also lived in France and Germany. I enjoy travelling and meeting new people and learning about their culture. I speak French and German fluently and am currently improving my Russian, so I truly understand both the challenges and rewards of learning a new language.

Ik als leerkracht
I have been teaching professionally both online and in the classroom for over six years to students from B1 level through to advanced and proficiency level. I am friendly and patient and will offer you support and encouragement to confidently express yourself in English. I will mainly use the communicative approach working with engaging materials and activities that are interesting to you.
In addition, I have experience in helping students with Cambridge exam preparation and have successfully helped many students pass their PET, FCE, CAE, and CPE exams. I can offer you tips and guidance on all areas of the exams and will work with you on any aspects that you find challenging.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I will tailor my lessons to suit your language learning goals. I will use a wide range of recent and interesting materials to ensure the lessons are engaging, including videos, exercises, news articles, grammar activities, games, and up-to-date course books.
We will work with and discuss a wide range of topics, which will allow you to expand your vocabulary, and be able to use them in context. We can also talk about idioms and commonly used expressions to improve your understanding and fluency.
I can offer clear explanations of grammar points, and provide a range of tasks for you to practise and use it.
Whatever your language learning goal, I can help you achieve it.

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!

Nichola has been my teacher for a year and a half now, and during this time we’ve had many lessons together. What I truly admire about her is her unique ability to make even the most complex topics feel accessible and clear. She is not just a skilled teacher, but also a true model of linguistic excellence: listening to her is always inspiring thanks to her natural gift for communication.
Over the past year, my conversational skills have improved exponentially thanks to her guidance. She always knows exactly when and how to correct me, without breaking the flow of the conversation, which makes every lesson both effective and enjoyable.
In short, Nichola is a top-level teacher, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who wants to take their language learning to the next level.

I ve know Nichola for a few years now and I believe her to be a true expert in the field. Her knowledge is impressive and stands out from the many. Her biggest attribute then is to simplify complex concepts breaking it down into more manageable ideas.
She uses a refined language and always engages people’s attention by either giving examples or addressing new topics. What makes her different from the others is the passion and the natural inclination to the job. She has been gifted the talent to be a teacher.
We can easily talk advanced grammar or shift the conversation to daily activities without any hesitation due to her being affable, approachable and pleasant.
I am happy to continue learning through Nichola and I could not recommend anyone more highly than her … to any serious students.

Dear Nichola! Thank you for your professionalism, exceptional support and guidance during my preparation for the CPE exam. As we now know, it completely paid off and I finally managed to conquer my long-awaited certificate. It was you who took me from my C1 level (CAE in 2024, passed at grade C) and diligently both gathered and improved my scattered bits of knowledge, so I was able to fulfil my highly anticipated ambition.
For those of you, who are now desperately looking for a native, qualified English teacher to ameliorate your chances to get any level you want, I respectfully advise you to consider Nichola’s help. Tried and tested :-)
Good luck in studies! May the force be with you!
