Phenomenal Tutor

Nicole is a brilliant and passionate writing tutor who truly cares about her student and helping them in accomplishing their goals. She helped me succeed in transforming my paper from average to EXCELLENT! She is knowledgeable and very intelligent. Her knowledge of research writing and APA is profound. You will not regret working with Nicole at all. She gave me hope and made me believe in myself and the paper I was working on. I was so proud to turn in my ivy league paper and feel confident in the work she helped me produce. My professor was very impressed! You will not regret selecting Nicole as your tutor. She surpassed my expectations in what I expected in a writing tutor. She is truly worth the amount she charges an hour. Do not question your decision to contact her to be your tutor. She is truly a blessing and very talented at what she selflessly does for her students. Nicole, I could not be more grateful for what you did for me! Thank you so so much! :)

Amazing!!

I was struggling with a grant proposal assignment for over a week. I found Dr. Nicole and she talked me through my research question and aims and innovations which allowed me to understand what to focus on for my background, significance, and approach.
