I am the son of a journalist and a librarian. This means I was raised with a passion for both discovering new information and helping others find material that is useful and interesting.
I have more than ten years of professional writing and editing experience and hosted a weekly radio show for ten years. This means I can help you make both your written and spoken English sound more accurate and natural.
I spent 15 years in the Pacific Northwest of the U.S. and now live in Guadalajara, Mexico. I love music, comedy, and being in nature. I also love learning languages and sharing strange and interesting stories from real life.
การสร้างของฉัน
ฉันในฐานะผู้สอน
I’m a professional English teacher (CELTA certified), language coach, writing tutor, and conversation partner at the same time.
I have taught more than 3,000 classes on italki. My students inspire me to constantly improve as a teacher and learn more about different cultures, languages, and professions.
Becoming “fluent” in a language is a lifelong process. I want to encourage you to enjoy the journey of learning English. It’s a strange and frustrating language, but if you’re focused on topics that you’re passionate about, the process can be much more enjoyable.
Podemos usar el español como apoyo.

บทเรียนและรูปแบบการสอนของฉัน
Think for a minute:
What do you want to do in English that you can't do now?
Your goals will determine what our classes look like. More than anything, I want to make sure you have tools to use your skills more confidently in your real life.
I will keep an updated document of words and phrases we learned in class and share it with you after our class. We will use materials that are both relevant and interesting.
I recommend recording our classes and watching the video later. It’s a great way to notice your own strengths and weaknesses, especially if you want to improve your speaking and listening.
If you want me to give you homework, it will probably be writing practice.

I have been taking classes with Nick for a month, and although I don’t have much time to dedicate to it, I feel like I’m really improving. Nick is very patient, and the fact that he is also learning and speaking foreign languages has been a clear advantage. I highly recommend working on your English with him.

I'm very grateful to you for being my teacher. I feel I now have more skills to communicate appropriately. Sometimes I fail, but it's just the beginning of something wonderful for my future.

Nick is a very helpful and patient person. He knows how to help even a beginner like me. He encourages and values the progress he sees, even small progress. This facilitates learning. He provides examples and makes materials available. It is easy to interact with him. I really enjoy working with him and I am grateful for the work he is doing with me. I highly recommend him!
