Bio

Hello! I have retired after 40 years of experience teaching AP Calculus AB and 20 years of teaching AP Calculus BC to share with you. Historically, I have a 90% pass rate on these exams. I view my student's success as my success so I have a strong and determined drive to help them. In my eyes, there is never just one way to learn a concept so I strive to find out what helps each individual student achieve. Learning the why behind the what is essential.

Hello! I have retired after 40 years of experience teaching AP Calculus AB and 20 years of teaching AP Calculus BC to share with you. Historically, I have a 90% pass rate on these exams. I view my student's success as my success so I have a strong and determined drive to help them. In my eyes, there is never just one way to learn a concept so I strive to find out what helps each individual student achieve. Learning the why behind the what is essential.

Due to my many years in the classroom, I have acquired a great amount of materials that I have found to help my students achieve. Developing reviews is something that I believe in strongly for assessment preparation. Helping others gives me great joy and satisfaction. I definitely have the heart of a teacher.

I look forward to helping you on your math journey.

Patient and kind

Nancy was the most patient, kind, and smart tutor I've ever had (and I've had a lot). I spent a lot of time searching for a good tutor on Wyzant and I chose her because of the stellar reviews, and they're all so true! I never ever write reviews on anything but she took time to carefully explain all the problems until I completely understood them, and when I didn't get a concept she would find different ways to explain it. She is a fantastic tutor!

Wonderful and Perfect AP Calculus tutor

Nancy has been tutoring my son AP Calculus AB. Ethan finds each session very helpful and productive. Nancy is very patient, knowleageable , she explains concepts very well. We look forward to continue working with Nancy these two years to tackle both AP Calculus AB and BC. Thumbs up!

Great experience!

Nancy is a great tutor - skilled, responsive and flexible. Knowing my son (right now pre-calc) can rely on her, when needed, is a big thing. She always responds and does her best to accommodate; even if she’s busy she’ll make a genuine effort to find time and get him over his hurdles. Thank you Nancy!

Repeat Customer

This is the second child of mine that Nancy has tutored in AP Calculus. My oldest obtained a 5 on the AP exam with just one to two hours of tutoring a week from Nancy. My daughter is currently a student of hers and was apprehensive about having a tutor, but Nancy put her at ease and quickly determined the areas my daughter needed to work on. I highly recommend Nancy!

Super energetic and understandable

I am doing AP Calculus AB content with Nancy, and every lesson is super productive/goes by quickly with her. Super great at explaining concepts and making sure you understand before moving on.

Thorough and knowledgable

Nancy is tutoring my son in AP Cal AB. She teaches this class herself so she has expert experience in most effective teaching strategies and understands the class requirements. Equally important is the time she takes to provide feedback to me, to ask for specific information from my son's teacher that will make her tutoring more effective, and the additional resources she provides. Her response time is quick making it easy to coordinate with her. I highly recommend Nancy.

Knowledgeable AP Calculus tutor!

I’m so happy my daughter is able to work with Nancy while preparing for her AP Calculus exam. Nancy’s familiarity with the course and exam allows her to give focused support and advice and insider tips my daughter would have otherwise missed!

A true lifesaver

We went through a few AP Calculus tutors before finding Nancy. My daughter was excited to finally find a tutor she can connect with. Nancy takes the time to know her students and creates a relationship that makes learning easy. She asks for topics and problems in advance so no tutoring time is wasted. I plan on booking Nancy every week so my daughter will always be on track and I never have to worry about her falling behind. Nancy has truly given me peace of mind.
