Shy? Want more confidence? Let me help!
First, I'm a language learner, too. 🙋 I've lived in five countries, speak three languages, & take weekly classes with native speakers.
Second, I'm a professional. 📕 I've got a TEFL certificate & taught 6+ years in person & online. I've also got a master's degree in journalism & a bachelor's in East Asian Studies.
Third, I have practical experience. 💼 Before teaching, I was a reporter and editor & even started my own print newspaper.
You can do this! Let's practice together!

Learning English doesn't have to be frustrating or embarrassing. I'll praise successes and give clear, honest feedback. We all have strong areas! We all have weak areas, too! Me? I'm horrable at spelling!

Nick is the best tutor I've ever met. He is very professional, attentive, supportive and easy to talk with – before our classes, I did not even know that effective learning of English can be also fun. Nick helped me prepare for the interview, find my strong language skills and improve my weak ones. And what else is very important to me – he is very accurate and inspiring in the feedback, after which you want to speak English more and more without any fear of making mistakes. I was deeply impressed by how quickly Nick taught me to be confident and truly believe in my ability to communicate in English.
