Extremely polite and extraordinary intelligent person as I have meet Nicolas before in different occasions. I'm 100% sure that his sensibility and care in dealing with students is also another extraordinary element of his character.
Nicholas taught me for Scriptwriting at university, and was an excellent teacher — his knowledge and experience are immense and he always deeply and critically engaged with my work, helping me to write to the best of my ability. He is also a uniquely lovely person who would get on with anyone and everyone!! :)
Nicholas was an excellent tutor. He was very helpful, providing me with lots of incites and ways of getting the best out of my work. He was always friendly, well prepared and engaging. I can't recommend him enough.
I’m thrilled to recommend Nicholas, my Drama professor, for Writing Drama program . As someone who taught Writing Drama at the University of Oxford, he brought incredible expertise and passion to the classroom. Nicholas has a unique ability to inspire creativity—whether guiding us through playwriting exercises or helping us develop compelling characters. His feedback on my one act play and radio play was incredibly insightful and helped me refine my work in ways I hadn’t considered, pushing me to grow as a writer. I’m so grateful for his guidance and support in sparking creativity and fostering my growth as a writer and thinker. I look forward to learning from him again.
Nicholas is an exceptionally brilliant and delightful individual. As our tutor for creative writing in the Oxford Undergraduate Diploma program, he consistently provided insightful feedback and constructive criticism in the forums, always fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment. His attention to detail in grading my assignments was remarkable—his feedback was thorough, thoughtful, and incredibly helpful in guiding my growth as a writer. He was encouraging, highly responsive to questions and emails, and demonstrated remarkable patience and understanding. Beyond his expertise, he is simply a wonderful person, and I couldn’t recommend him more highly.
Nicholas is an incredibly talented writer, as well as being a teacher. He has given me feedback on many different types of writing. Nicholas is very culturally aware, often coming up with clever ways of expressing ideas or restructuring a sentence, which lifts work massively. Nicholas takes a genuine interest in the people he teaches and will help you to produce your best. Nicholas is also very quick to respond, often giving feedback or comments at short notice. Whatever level you are studying at, Nicholas will help you achieve your goals. Nicholas is fantastic!
Nicholas is a knowledgeable tutor with a large experience with one of the world's top universities and with the top of British entertainment. His insights were a great support; they gave me the confidence to continue and persevere. And I thank him from all my heart! Laura Lai, playwright
I recommend Nicholas as an exceptional English tutor. I've known Nicholas for several years, meeting through our shared interest in culture and creative writing: I'm impressed by his deep understanding of the English language, literature and his passion for helping others improve their skills.
Nicholas embodies the style of a dedicated and adaptable Superprof. He doesn't just stick to rigid lesson plans; he takes the time to understand each student's individual needs and learning style, tailoring his approach accordingly; he creates a comfortable and supportive learning environment, encouraging students to ask questions and take risks without fear of judgment. His ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and engaging way is truly remarkable.
I wholeheartedly recommend Nicholas to other Superprof members because he is a truly effective and caring tutor. His genuine enthusiasm for the English language is contagious, and he has a proven track record of helping students achieve their learning goals. If you're looking for a tutor who is patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in your success, Nicholas is the perfect choice. You won't be disappointed!
