Aloha,

My name is Nicole T. and I am a graduate from Arizona State University with a degree in Conservation Biology. I completed most of my degree at UH Manoa where I was pursuing a degree in marine biology and was lucky enough to be able to intern studying coral reef and was published for the first time as part of a research project mapping coral calves in Kaneohe Bay. I completed university at Arizona State University where I majored in conservation biology and achieved my second publication studying how anxiety and depression affect student performance in undergraduate science courses. I have since switched directions from field work and am now pursuing a masters in education with the hope to teach high school science and inspire the next generation of students to become passionate about conservation.
I have over a decade of experience tutoring math and science, with experience working with kids who have learning disabilities like dyscalculia, and understand how frustrating it can be to try to make sense of numbers that won't stay still. It takes a greater level of patience, but anyone can excel at math.
I am comfortable tutoring others in a large variety of subjects such as algebra, geometry and elementary math. I also preformed very well on my SATs, receiving a score of 2200 overall, and a perfect on the mathematics section of the test. I honestly love math, and really enjoy tutoring kids of all ages to help them understand how great math can be! One of the great things about mathematics is that there is more than one way to come to every answer, it's just a question of finding the method that works best for the individual.
Although I have the most experience helping people with math, I am also comfortable with many other subjects. As a biology major, I have taken classes in all range of science- from geology to chemistry to ecology and more. I legitimately enjoy learning- in all fields- and I love being in school. I look forward to working with others to help them further their education.

I was a competitive gymnast with required cross-training in ballet for 8 years. I then quit gymnastics and moved to ballet full time. I attended an arts Highschool in Silver Spring Maryland to focus on ballet and piano. Although I was forced to quit dancing at 16 due to a severe knee injury, it is still a passion of mine and I have 15 years of experience dancing.
Bible Studies

Bible Studies

I was ordained into the Presbyterian church at the age of 13, when I became the Youth Elder for my church, representing my church at the city and regional level among other Presbyterian Elders to discuss issues facing our religious community and discuss policy changes citing God's Word as the basis for and proposed discussion or changes. I was the youngest Elder by far at the time. I have kept up with my studies, and enjoy using my historical knowledge of the bible and the words in it to have discussions with those who twist God's words to justify hatred instead of the love He stands for.

I am a conservation biologist with over ten years of experience tutoring science, currently pursuing a masters degree in education to teach high school math and science. I have taken many statistics courses throughout my college education and also have a pending publication that addresses how anxiety affects student performance in undergraduate biology courses where we used statistics to compare how a large number of qualitative factors affected various different measures of student success in undergraduate science courses .
Earth Science

Earth Science

I have taken and received an A in multiple relevant upper level biology college courses while pursuing my degree. I was lucky enough to spend time at UH Manoa in Hawaii where I took earth science as well as multiple Oceanography and geography courses and also was able to work in the field snorkeling and diving mapping coral calves. While at Arizona State University completing my degree, I got my certification in GIS. I am now pursuing my masters degree and have over a decade of experience tutoring math and science.

Environmental Science

I fell in love with Environmental Science when I took AP environmental science in High School (and got a 5 on the exam). More recently, I have taken and received an A in multiple relevant upper level biology college courses while pursuing my degree. I was lucky enough to spend time at UH Manoa in Hawaii where I learned about marine environments and was able to work on an internship concerning the coral reefs in Kaneohe Bay off the coast of Oahu. While at Arizona State University completing my degree, I took many classes in environmental science, conservation and ecology as well as politics and policy that affect the environment and how the two intersect. I am now pursuing my masters degree and have over a decade of experience tutoring math and science.

I have a degree in conservation biology and have taken multiple upper level college genetics courses (which I received an A in) I also completed a project and presented a project while at Arizona State University using medical data pulled from the All of Us research data base to discover if there is a correlation between those in the population with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, and those who develop Pigmented Synovial Villonodular tumors. I am now pursuing a masters degree in education to teach high school science and math and have over ten years of experience tutoring science.

Religion

Religion

I was ordained into the Presbyterian Church when I was 13 and became the Youth Elder and one of two representatives for my church among the greater Maryland Presbyterian Community (a denomination of Christianity). I started taking classes to study other religions in high school and was fascinated to learn how similar they were to my own, and have since gone on to take take many religion classes in university, studying Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism, Sikhism and Taoism as well as some lesser known cultures and the associated religious beliefs like some Native American and Maori cultures. My primary field of study in school was Conservation Biology, and I am pursuing a masters degree to become a high school science teacher; I have over ten years of experience tutoring science and math. However, religion has always been another love and passion of mine, since I was a child and was the odd ball who decided to study it and become an ordained elder as a 13 year old.

Knowledgeable and very caring tutor

Nicole is very patient, she went through the entire home work / subject step by step to be sure the subject was understood, then patiently explained while each problem was being solved. Nicole went beyond expectations and came to our house yesterday to accommodate our schedule. Thank you Nicole!

Helena, 39 lessons with Nicole

Knowledgeable and flexible tutor

This is our first visit with Nicole. Nicole works very well with my child, who is typically very shy. She helps my child with her 8th grade writing English and science lab report, makes great suggestions to improve her skills. She is willing to review her papers online and via emails which help us save times with in-person visits. Highly recommended.
