Sunshine, handsome, may will be your first impression of him! He loves sports, it seems that there are no sports he can't do, he can do swimming, cycling, basketball, football, running, equestrian, tennis, badminton. He also plays the guitar, crafts, dancing, singing, baking, cooking, chess, photography and lego. There’s a Chinese old saying can be use to describe him"琴棋书画样样精通"!( proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting)
In addition, Nikolai was an exchange student in the United States for one year. His English is excellent. Nikolai is also very good at French and has obtained the DELF B1 French certificate.
Before he came to China as an au pair, Nikolai had been working as a tutor helping children from grade 1 to grade 5 with their homework. Help school children improve their grades in English, German, and math.
Nikolai also said that he likes to help others and wants to learn other cultures from different perspectives, which is why he wants to be an Au pair. In his opinion, it is very interesting to be with children every day. Children's smiles are the warmest gifts in the world.
When getting along with the child, Nikolai would use the things around him to help the child learn vocabulary (such as notes and books), so as to improve the child's interest in learning English, so that the child would think that English is not just a subject, but something he’s interested in.
Once they’re home, host family gave Nikolai a warm welcome. They exchanged gifts, Eric(host kid) gave him a Harry Potter book in Chinese and English. Germany is famous for its chocolate and red wine, so Nikolai brought them to host family.
We also hope Nikolai and the family can learn from each other, have a good communication with each other, understand different cultures and find a better self.
