Hello everyone! My name is Nicholas, please call me Nick!
I offer lessons in English grammar and conversational correction,
Art lessons in traditional drawing and painting
and Cooking lessons using restaurant and hotel style recipes.
I would like to share my skills and passion for artwork, cooking and language learning with you!
About me...
I was born on a small island very close to Vancouver in Canada. Afterwards, I lived in many different towns around Canada including one in the far northern territories in the Yukon! The last place I lived was the city of Vancouver before I came to Japan. Now I am living in Tokyo with my wife and family!
I am very passionate about cooking, making artwork and I am always trying to mix the passion for food and art together to create the most unique meals possible.
My experience...I have many years of experience in creating artwork such as book covers and art pages, company ads, portrait illustrations and personally requested designs. I continue to make new artwork of my own using many different multimedia such as painting, pencil, charcoal and even coffee used like watercolour!
I also have over 15 years of restaurant experience in which I have learned many unique cooking styles in many different types of kitchens from small town wood fire restaurants all the way to 5 star hotel restaurants and banquets.
Finally, I have experience working in English language companies that have a the focus of one on one tutoring. I have helped people from many different personal and business backgrounds become more skilled and confident in their English conversations.
My teaching style...
I offer English lessons that will focus on building up grammar skills and conversational skills taught through roleplaying, grammar drills and quizzes, and open conversations with corrections.
In my art lessons, I offer art styles varying from comic/manga pencil designs, watercolour experimenting and combining styles to create your own unique art pieces.
For cooking lessons, I teach techniques and skills that will guide you to recreate recipes using many different restaurant cooking styles from a variety of countries!
Thank you for reading my profile,
I look forward to meeting you soon!
