OET Specialist • IELTS • Business • Conversation | 25+ Years
Hello, I’m Nick — a TEFL-certified British teacher with 25+ years’ experience. I specialise in OET preparation (speaking, writing, roleplay) for healthcare professionals aiming for success.
I also teach IELTS (Band 7+), Business English (interviews, presentations), and conversation classes to build fluency and confidence.
My lessons are focused, practical, and tailored to your goals, with clear feedback and exam strategies.
I’ve taught worldwide and ran two schools in Japan. Now based in the UK.
Book a trial and let’s get results.
I am a patient and supportive teacher who focuses on helping students feel confident using English. I adapt each lesson to your needs and explain things clearly. You can ask questions freely, and I will guide you step by step to improve your fluency, accuracy, and overall communication skills.
My lessons are practical, structured, and interactive. I use real materials such as articles and exam tasks, with a strong focus on speaking and feedback. You will actively use English in every lesson, improving fluency, confidence, and accuracy while working towards your exam or professional goals.Meu material de ensino
