Bio

One of the Top 10% Tutors on Wyzant for 2019!

I've had many opportunities to teach and tutor during my career and I still get excited and love when I see the "light bulb" come on in the eyes of my students. There is no better feeling than being able to help someone reach a new understanding of something that, at first, seems so difficult to grasp...I believe you can achieve what you set your mind and heart to achieve...sometimes, it is more heart than mind. I can help you get there!

One of the Top 10% Tutors on Wyzant for 2019!

I've had many opportunities to teach and tutor during my career and I still get excited and love when I see the "light bulb" come on in the eyes of my students. There is no better feeling than being able to help someone reach a new understanding of something that, at first, seems so difficult to grasp...I believe you can achieve what you set your mind and heart to achieve...sometimes, it is more heart than mind. I can help you get there!

During my enlistment in the US Air Force, I became an electronics technician and Instructor.
I taught both basic and advanced electronics, to include the technical math and physics necessary to understand the concepts being presented. Later, as an Air Force Officer, I received an Electrical Engineering degree from the University of Maryland. Ever since, I have been involved with training or tutoring in diverse fields to include: Math, Physics, Electrical Engineering, and Spanish!

I also have experience in linear, integer, and quadratic programming with LINDO.

I have a Masters of Science in Information Security Systems Management from Colorado Technical University. I've trained many of my company employees and customers in the area of Information Technology and Security.

When I was younger I moved to Spain to attend school in Salamanca and Madrid. I've traveled to many places in Spain and have been introduced to the many faces and cultures that make up the country. I now reside in Baldwin County and I'm looking forward to helping you master what has become my native language, Spanish. I have tutored students both in Spanish language and literature. I look forward to working together to master your subject of interest!

I'm also a member of the National Tutoring Association (NTA) from which I have received Tutor training, testing, and Certification.

Great Tutor and mentor

Great Tutor and mentor. Appreciate how patient and understanding he is, and how he taught me some new skills that I haven’t reconsidered before. Now I would apply these new skills to help me on the OAR.

Knowledgeable and patient!

Excellent tutor highly recommend for any AFOQT or math needs in general. I look forward to continuing to learn and work with Mr. Nieves.

Michael, 9 lessons with Milton Rafael

Amazing tutor, super grateful!!

I started working with Milton because I was preparing for my 3rd attempt at the AFOQT, specifically the Quantitative section. I had been struggling with math for awhile, but as soon as I started my lessons with Milton I noticed such a difference and great progress. He does an amazing job at explaining the concepts as well as gives test taking tips to help you understand it and work it out faster. Milton always brought a positive and great sense of humor to our sessions to keep it fun and engaging since the topic was complicated at time. Overall, the best tutor I have ever had and would recommend to him anybody who is preparing for their AFOQT.

Officer Aptitude Rating Tutor Sessions

I can honestly say I finish each lesson having learned something new and feeling pretty confident in how to approach future problems regarding said concept. Mr. Nieves is so knowledgeable, yet patient with those who need extra explanation on certain topics. I would certainly recommend him to anyone seeking to pass the OAR exam.

Chaliyah, 6 lessons with Milton Rafael

Passed the AFOQT!

Milton is a wonderful tutor. He catered to my needs which was increasing my AFOQT verbal scores. My score increased 3x! He has a strong understanding of Latin roots and explains words in a way for you to remember!

Ria, 13 lessons with Milton Rafael

Super patient

I have not done well in math in years and now with Mr. Rafael’s help I feel like I have a chance at passing this exam. He is a great teacher and teaches me not only test taking strategies but also other methods to work out problems.
