I PASSED MY NCLEX!!!!

Clarinda is absolutely incredible! I have taken the NCLEX a total of 3 times and failed, on my 4th attempt with the help of Clarinda I was able to PASS!!!! I'm Officially an RN!! I had used a variety of sources when prepping for the NCLEX. I've used UWorld, KPLAN, and Lippincott all great sources that I felt would have helped me be most successful when taking the NCLEX however, it was never quite what I needed to pass. It wasn't until I came across Clarinda who really helped me strengthen my weaknesses and build on my critical thinking skills. I had never been the best test taker and the NCLEX is not an easy test but thanks to Clarinda I was able to build my confidence, and learn how to properly answer NCLEX styled questions. If you're looking for a tutor and don't know where to start I strongly suggest you meet with Clarinda. She is very friendly, easy to talk to, and really puts in the work to help you be successful.

Knowledgeable and super helpful

Clarinda was extremely helpful in preparing me for the NCLEX. Her approach is both supportive and motivating. We worked through several practice questions, and for the ones I answered incorrectly, she not only explained the rationales clearly, but also taught me strategies for approaching the questions to arrive at the correct answer. She has a way of explaining concepts that truly clicks. I am scheduled to meet with her again this upcoming week to review my pre-test and study plan. I highly recommend her to anyone preparing for the NCLEX exam.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor!

Clarinda was able to pinpoint my strengths and weaknesses, provided me with a clear and concise explanation/understanding of my CPR as a result guided me on how to achieve my goal by implementing and improving my performance/test taking strategies. Highly recommended!!

Kind and Knowledgeable

I always thought I'd never need a tutor but I failed my NCLEX right out of school so I started tutoring with Clarinda. She worked with me to create a study plan, met with me as often as I needed, provided me with study material, and explained everything thoroughly and in a manner I understood. Shes very kind and never makes you feel rushed or dumb for not knowing the answer to questions. I passed my 2nd NCLEX attempt largely because of her

Great tutor!

Clarinda is a truly special person. During the time I’ve had the privilege of learning with her, she has made the most of every moment to guide me, clear up my doubts, and strengthen my understanding. Her patience and dedication make each session both enriching and meaningful. What I love most about her classes is how she starts them: always with her motivational slides, which not only prepare the mind for learning but also inspire and boost self-confidence. The warmth and enthusiasm she brings to teaching truly make a difference, turning every lesson into an inspiring experience. I am deeply grateful for everything I’ve learned with her. Without a doubt, Clarinda is an exceptional tutor who leaves a lasting impact on her students. Thanks 🙏🏻

Very Informative

I recently had a fantastic tutoring session focused on SIRS and MODS, which was both enlightening and super helpful. My tutor was amazing at making complicated stuff like the physiology behind these conditions understandable. She used diagrams making learning fun and interactive. What really stood out was how she connected theory with real-world practice, walking me through how these conditions progress and why quick recognition and action are crucial. She was also great at encouraging questions, making it easy to dive deeper into any topic I found tricky. All in all, my tutor's knowledge and approach to teaching were top-notch, making complex topics accessible and engaging. I feel way more prepared to handle SIRS and MODS on my Exam.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

Clarinda is the best a critical care!!! She managed to have me passing my exam with just 2 sessions and I had minimal prior knowledge about the topics covered. She is very patient and dedicated!!
