Hi! My name is Nici. I am a native English speaker and and experienced teacher.
⭐ I have worked with children for over 25 years.
⭐ I have worked in schools in the UK and international schools, with children from many countries.
⭐ I have a Bachelor of Education and English degree from Cambridge University
⭐ I have taught languages to adults, teenagers & children
⭐ I love learning languages as well as teaching them!
😀Hola! Me llamo Nici y soy profesora de ingles en Italki! Soy inglesa pero he vivido en España y hablo muy bien el español, así que si solo tienes un nivel de ingles básico, yo puedo explicarte las cosas en español también!Me as a Teacher
I have been a schoolteacher, working with young children, for over 25 years, so I am very experienced at working with young learners, and at making my lessons active, fun and engaging. Thanks to my job, I am also really experienced at planning lessons, meeting specific objectives, assessing learners and adapting my teaching methods and style to what suits them best, whether working with children, teens or adults.
Soy profesora de niños pequeños desde hace mas de 20 anos, así que tengo mucha experiencia y habilidades con niños de esta edad. Pero también he trabajado con adultos, enseñándoles los idiomas, y puedo adaptar mis métodos para ayudar bien a los estudiantes de cualquier edad.My lessons & teaching style
With children, I use lots of games to keep the learning fun and active, and I also have some basic questions which I start each lesson with. I find that repeating these questions each week helps children to quickly develop confidence, gives them some basic vocabulary and also starts to build fluency.
If you are an adult learner, then we will start by establishing your level of English and you sharing with me what your goals are. I will then plan lessons to help you meet these goals. If you just want to practise speaking and listening, then book an English Conversational Skills lesson. For a more in-depth level of teaching, book an Intermediate or Advanced lesson.My teaching material

Un grand merci à Nici pour les cours donnés à ma fille âgée de 10 ans. Sa patience et sa bienveillance l'ont beaucoup aidée! La voilà en confiance pour continuer son apprentissage de l'anglais.
