“25 years ago I graduated from the university. After that I worked at a bank but this job I didn’t enjoy with it. Then I became a teacher at the university. At first I was a trainee and surely I was pleased and enjoyed to teach very much. I was a teacher for 6 years there. When the school holiday arrived, I taught at another school in England then I got married and have 2 children.
Then I moved to Thailand to teach at Dulwich International School before they changed to British International School until now. I have worked as Director Studies, Head Academic. After that I left Phuket for 1 year to Spain and returned to Phuket for teaching again.” Mr. Nicholas told to Phuketindex.
