The literal BEST ACT tutor!!!!
Elizabeth, 11 lessons with NicoleMy son went up by 3 points on his ACT composite score, after working with Nicole for only a month! Nicole was friendly, flexible, kind, and easy to work with. She was very good at communication and helped my son both with test taking strategies, practical skills and with encouragement and self-confidence. I couldn't recommend her more highly -- she's the best tutor out there for the ACT!! I SO WISH I had found Nicole sooner!!!!
Hi - I'm Nicole. I have 17+ years of experience working with students at all levels of the spectrum. As a tutor, I have worked for two different professional tutoring agencies, one specializing in SAT and ACT tutoring, and another specializing in K-12 subject tutoring. I have also worked with a county-based literacy council, working with both adult literacy learners and elementary students struggling to learn to read.
My tutoring style has been described as engaging, encouraging, and...

Super HSPT Tutor
Nicole knows the HSPT test so well and could zero in on what my daughter needed to focus on in order to do her best possible. Nicole adjusted to what my daughter needed and my daughter feels very prepared thanks to Nicole's insights on the test and understanding of Kate's strengths and weaknesses. I will have Nicole work with my other daughter next year for sure!

Incredible ACT and SAT tutor!
Nicole’s ability to prepare students for the ACT and SAT are truly extraordinary! My son was particularly anxious about how he would perform on the math sections, but in addition to his phenomenal score improvement, he is finally able to grasp math concepts that had eluded him for so long. Nicole's impact has been invaluable. She tailored her teaching methods to my son's needs and gave him tools to help him strategize for success. My only regret is not finding Nicole sooner! Her method of preparation with both content and test taking strategies allowed my son to improve his overall ACT composite score by 6 points (28 to 34) and his ACT math score by 9 points (24 to 33 in math). He is more confident and is more excited to learn new and difficult concepts. I am so grateful for her help!

Most amazing HSPT tutor!!!!
Working with Nicole has been like breath of fresh air! My son has been very anxious about taking the HSPT. While he's very bright, he is not the strongest test-taker. He just had his first session with Nicole and he feels much more confident already! I was so impressed with Nicole's flexibility and ability to walk him through the test after doing a diagnostic. They worked on strategies and concretely on the content areas. We are so grateful to have found Nicole!!!

Knowledgeable, fun and patient tutor.
My nine year old daughter struggled with reading and she was hesitant to read on her own. Now, she looks forward to every class and over the last weeks she definitely improved her reading skills. Nicole is a very fun tutor and they both seem to have fun during their sessions. I hear them laugh a lot during the class. I would highly recommended Nicole as a tutor!

Patient, organized and helpful!
Nicole has been tutoring my high school aged daughter daily for a few weeks and helping her get on top of her homework load. She is a consistent and calm presence, and a great counterbalance to my ADHD daughter, who is academically capable but needs a lot of hand holding through the executive functioning aspects of juggling all of her high school workload. I highly recommend Nicole!

Amazing SAT Tutor!!!
Nicole is tutoring both of my sons to prepare for their upcoming exam. Nicole has been extremely helpful and talented at guiding them through problems that may at first seem complicated. It’s incredibly clear how much my sons have improved with her practice problems after only a few weeks.

Patient, knowledgeable and accommodating tutor
Nicole is a patient, understanding and accommodating tutor. My son has ASD and Nicole works well with him. She breaks down abstract & complex science lessons and apply real life examples to make them easier for my son to understand. Nicole teaches language arts lessons equally as well. She enjoys working with my son which makes me feel good. If needed, Nicole can nicely redirect my son’s attention to the lesson. If you're looking for a patient, knowledgeable, and accommodating tutor to work with your child, do not hesitant to reach out to Nicole.
