VIVEK MITTAL

It is an absolute pleasure to work with Nicholas. I had found him very enthusiastic about accepting responsibility and he works on tasks assigned persistently till the goal is achieved. He is a complete team player and works with teams diligently and motivates team to aim for higher and higher. Nevertheless Nicholas is very resourceful and being resourceful it is comparatively easier for him to achieve success. His knowledge about the industry is phenomenal and he engages with peers effortlessly. He is meticulous and no detail can escape his attentive mind. Accommodating and adjusting with the situation comes naturally to him. In the end I must mention that he is recommended to all as engaging with him will surely be a privilege and he will emerge as an asset beyond any doubt. I wish him success in all his endeavours.

Jerome Mangadap, "Coach Jerry"

Nicholas has been teaching university students for at least a decade now and still going stronger. His unique pedagogical approach is a source of pride of the institutions he had served and has been serving. He is definitely an asset. My deepest respect to his vast achievements.
