If you are looking for a great tutor, you just found him!

Hello folks! Nicko here!

My two years of experience in teaching offline and online shaped me to adapt to learners' needs. I am a dynamic and innovative individual when it comes to teaching. I see to it that my students are learning and enjoying at the same time. I make sure to integrate theory and practice into my lesson course.

I specialize in writing and communication. I graduated with a BS in Development Communication, which highly specializes in the field of applied communication. This includes oral communication (speech, voice-overs, radio drama), written communication (journalistic works, multimedia, scriptwriting, creative writing) graphic designing, and layouting (publishing, multimedia designing). As the former Editor-in-chief of Ateneo Triumph Yearbook Publishing, I also have experience in copy reading and proofreading.

Currently, I work as an online English as a Second Language (ESL) tutor to various students around the globe. I can teach beginner to advanced students of varying ages. I am a very jolly and calm tutor, so the majority of my students are kids.

I look forward to having fun lessons with you!

Excellent motivator for our two sons

Always quick to respond and always focused. A motivational help for our two sons who are ongoing with homeschooling. Regular updates were provided after every session. Our sons are learning new methods how to better manage their study time and reduce distractions.
Highly recommended from me.
