Testimonials

“Having Nick as an English teacher has been one of the best decisions we’ve made regarding our professional development. From day one, he demonstrated impeccable professionalism: his classes were well-prepared, tailored to our actual work needs, and paced in a way that ensured every session was truly productive.

But if I had to highlight one thing, it would be his personal approach. Nick has a rare gift for creating such a warm and engaging atmosphere that you learn almost without realizing it. I have particularly fond memories of the meals we shared, where we would continue practicing the language in a relaxed setting; we learned while enjoying ourselves—amidst conversation and good humour—and those moments turned out to be just as valuable as any formal lesson.”

“I have been fortunate enough to have Nick as my private English tutor for almost three years, with weekly classes, and it has been one of the most valuable learning experiences of my professional career.

One moment particularly stands out for me: preparing a presentation on pharmacoeconomics. In that project, I witnessed something that clearly sets Nick apart from other teachers. He not only has a mastery of the language, but also possesses a deep understanding of economics, finance, and business. His ability to provide perspectives from both macroeconomics and microeconomics added enormous value to the work and allowed me to approach that presentation with a level of confidence I could not have achieved on my own”

“We hired Nick Corbishley for private English lessons, and the experience was excellent. As managers at an asset management firm, we needed more than just grammar; we wanted to gain the fluency and confidence to operate in an international environment, and Nick understood this from day one.

His lessons are conversation-based, which made all the difference for us. Instead of rote exercises, Nick gets you talking, helps you loosen up, and enables you to overcome the fear of making mistakes. Being a native of Birmingham with a strong background as a journalist and economics blogger adds immense value: he has a command of financial and business vocabulary and knows how to steer conversations toward current economic topics that were directly relevant to our daily work”
