I have twenty five years plus teaching at the RN level at a community college. Nursing students love the use of interactive creative teaching strategies to learn and master critical nursing content in preparation for exams and clinical practice. I am a mastered prepared nurse educator. Passing nursing exams is not just about what you learned in nursing school -- it is about how you think. With expert critical thinking strategies and targeted practice, I can show you how to leverage your nursing content knowledge to think like a nurse to be successful on nursing exams.

My method of teaching and review is to use active creative teaching methods to remember critical concepts required to be successful in clinical and on exams. I work with students by providing a variety of examples and test questions until the student understands the concept. I provide students with questions and show them how to break the question down to clearly understand what the stem of the question is asking and then review why each a answer chosen is correct or incorrect. Students are required to come to a review session prepared to work and to demonstrate that they have studied the material. I begin the review session with asking the student to review their written list of questions about content that is confusing and needs clarification. Once these questions have been answered move on to questions about this content to make sure it has been clearly mastered. At the end of each lesson a five minute review of the lesson is provided and a written plan for the next lesson is established and agreed upon in order to maximize tutoring time.

Nurses are a very valuable member of society that will be needed for many years. I do not review to just exam mastery but also review to critical concepts that are needed to be successful in a variety of clinical settings. My areas of expertise are fundamentals and medical surgical nursing.

Patient, organized, and an energetic tutor

I have learned a lot from Pamela and every tutor session is well organized. She brings a lot of energy to her sessions, it’s always interesting and she is very patient! If you’re looking for an NCLEX tutor I would highly suggest Pamela.

The best tutor for nursing school.

I have done tutoring for most of my life through school programs and in person tutoring. A lot of the time, tutoring can make me feel dumb or judged for not knowing something but pamela does the opposite. Every time we have a session she is trying to uplift me and find different ways of teaching that fits my learning style. My grades in the start of nursing school were not cutting it until I started doing tutoring with her. She provides so many resources and is very well rounded with having a teaching and RN background. Her real life experiences help me connect topics that i once struggled in. Pamela is all around amazing and im so lucky to have her as a tutor. If you want better grades in nursing school you need pamela!

Amazing

Ms. Pam is so amazing! She’s patient, compassionate and understanding and very encouraging. She genuinely believes in her students. My instructors have complimented me on my improvements already, I’m in an accelerated bsn program. She’s been so diligent and flexible with her time. She helps me get straight to what’s important, I’m grateful for her!

Very patient and helpful

Pamela taught me some helpful test taking strategies for my final exam. She wasted no time, I told her what I needed help with, and she made sure to cover it. Would 100% recommend her if you need some extra help.

Amazing Nursing Tutor

I have been working with Pamela for about a year now and when I first came to her I was struggling in nursing school to pass my test. Not only am I doing significantly better on my tests but I feel much more confident when I take them thanks to her. She specifically teaches me based on my learning abilities which has helped me signficantly. She goes over the content and breaks it down into easier ways for me to remember everything and actually explains the content in depth without overwhelming me with the amount of information. She also has worked with me on my test taking strategies and I have seen a big difference in my grades. Yet the most important thing that she has done is made me feel comfortable and confident sometimes it can be awkward to ask professors questions but I never feel dumb with her and I always feel that she truly wants me to succeed. I cannot say enough amazing things about her and if you are looking for a tutor that not only will help you with the content but will make you feel confident and sure about yourself then she is the right fit for you!

Failed 7 Times

I was a repeat test taker.. I took this exam 7 times before deciding to work as a LPN in 2017. The last time I took the NCLEX was 2018. 2020 comes around and my whole entire world shattered as I lost my mom. I didn’t think that I would ever have the courage to try this test again… but I simply had unfinished business, plus I owed it to myself and my mom. January 2023 I found Pam, I’ve used Wyzant in the pass and during my search the reviews about Pam were amazing. Pam and I hit it off from day one and came up with a plan. I told myself I will do exactly what she says, but pace myself because I was working full time. Pam was so patient and kind, and most importantly passionate about understanding my weaknesses and strengths. I used archer which was a tremendous help and had 16 sessions with Pam. This test made me feel like I was never going to be a RN. I finished with 85 questions. I am thankful for the opportunity of working as a LPN. PAM THANK YOU. I HOPE YOU REALIZE AND UNDERSTAND THE GOOD YOU ARE DOING FOR OUR WORLD. I THANK YOU AND I AM BLESSED TO HAVE MET YOU. ❤️
