Hi! It's lovely to meet you. I am Ms. Nicki and I am excited to offer my communications and social skills classes on Outschool.
I come from a long line of teachers and greatly value the role of education in the development of young people. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Speech and Hearing Sciences and a Master of Arts in Educational Psychology. I am certified as an etiquette consultant through The Protocol School of Palm Beach. I have served as a Sunday School teacher to young children. I also have a wealth of experience working with students of all ages - from elementary through college! My professional experience includes over 20 years in college administration helping students realize their potential.
I am a firm believer in the importance of children learning good manners and social skills. These skills help children to meet and greet others, make friends, make a positive impression, and build their confidence in various social situations. I have taught both in-person and virtual social skills classes in my community. My goal is for children to learn in a manner that is informative, highly interactive, and FUN!
I am a mom of two fun-loving girls. One is in middle school and the other is in high school.
I love running, drinking mochas (yum!), and especially traveling. It's so exciting to explore new places and meet new people.
I am a highly enthusiastic, positive, and fun teacher. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your learner!
Sincerely,
Ms. NickiReviews
