Hello everyone! My name is Nick.
I’m a TEFL certified instructor from the UK.
Thank you for taking the time to have a look at my profile.
In 1987, I moved to New Zealand and worked in various industries. Eight years later I decided to pursue a dream of living and working in Japan. I stayed there for sixteen years.
During my time in Japan, I opened two Conversation schools,
I was pretty busy.
In 2015 I returned to the UK with my family where I continue to teach online.Minha atuação como professor

My lessons make use of lots of different materials, such as videos, audio recordings, songs, articles and textbooks, so we can build all your skills.
Development of fluency and confidence through conversation practice in a relaxed setting.
I am very patient, and you can ask me all the questions you want, as many times as you want, until you understand very well.
Let me know what you need and how I can help you, and I will be here for you.
I will do my best to help you achieve your goals of becoming fluent in English.
On a personal note, I currently live in Bournemouth in the UK. I enjoy mountain biking, swimming and running.Minhas aulas e estilo de ensino
