I can’t name everyone who taught me now, but I can remember Nick!

As an international student I can truly say that Nick is one of the best and patient teacher I’ve ever met. Always available and willing to help and listen. Im graduated since 2020, and still have good memories about Nick. I wish all the best.

I studied Civil Engineering at NTU from 2018 to 2021, and I found Nick to be the most engaging lecturer I encountered during my studies. He taught the Civil Engineering Design Projects module, and his enthusiasm and passion for both civil engineering and the subject matter were evident. His energy in the classroom was lively and motivating, which helped me stay eager to learn despite the difficulties I faced in understanding some concepts.

I recall giving presentations during my first year as part of this module. Nick had a unique way of encouraging students to question their own work in a constructive manner, prompting us to reflect on whether our ideas and statements were accurate. This approach inspired me to improve my work and develop my critical thinking skills.

What made Nick particularly memorable was the personal example he shared about his own career—specifically, that he was one of the engineers who worked on the DLR at Canning Town station in Newham, the area where I grew up. Hearing about his background and professional experiences motivated me to aspire to become the kind of engineer he is: one who works with both enthusiasm and passion.

Without Nick I would have really struggled in my BSc Civil Engineering at NTU!
