Bio

I'm Nina and I have a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering and an M.B.A. both from Kettering University in Flint, MI. I have over 20 years of experience in the engineering industry. I have years of experience tutoring 1st through 3rd graders in reading and math as a volunteer. I'm also an Elementary level Reading & Math Program Coordinator that tutors a small focus group of 10 students (3 years of experience).

I'm Nina and I have a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering and an M.B.A. both from Kettering University in Flint, MI. I have over 20 years of experience in the engineering industry. I have years of experience tutoring 1st through 3rd graders in reading and math as a volunteer. I'm also an Elementary level Reading & Math Program Coordinator that tutors a small focus group of 10 students (3 years of experience). Although, my passion is helping Elementary school students, I also have tutored math privately for High School students.

My engineering mindset makes it easier for me to understand the thought process that a student is taking when approaching a math problem. This helps me easily assess target areas for improvement. Students learn tips to logical thinking with completing math problems.

My passion for teaching students to read and write are apparent in my tutoring approach. I incorporate activities into each tutoring session to help my students stay engaged and help them apply what they are learning to real life.

I want to help the students I work with learn and enjoy their subject area of focus. Please feel free to reach me with any questions or to schedule a lesson. At this time, I am primarily conducting online tutoring sessions and at the Southfield Public Library. My session quality is the same whether it be virtually or face-to-face! If you are still hesitant with online tutoring, you do receive a money back guarantee if you aren't satisfied with the first session. Please note that for any cancellations, I must receive a 36 hours notice otherwise you will still be charged for the session. In honor of March Is Reading Month, I will be offering my current clients a FREE 30 minute Reading Tutoring Session during March (clients must have recently completed a session already to receive offer). Happy learning!

Great teacher, patient and understanding

My son enjoyed his 1st lesson with Ms.Nina and wants to do it again. She gave me words to work on with my child and he’s excited.

Breonna, 1 lesson with Nina

Great teacher

She was very patient with my daughter. She allowed for her to take breaks in order to regain focus. She also gave areas that needed improvement. Will do another lesson with her.

Tutoring my 2 young children

Nina is very patient with my 2 kids. She takes the time to communicate with me to figure out the best tutoring session of their strengths and weaknesses. Accommodating & would definitely recommend.

Tutoring for growth and confidence with Nina

I actually was searching for someone to tutor my 10 year old daughter with her math. Nina responded to my post with a since of urgency and asked if she could have the opportunity to tutor my daughter. Nina, adjusted her schedule to meet the demands of my personal schedule. Nina started tutoring my daughter on 11/13. Even though this was the 1st of many sessions, my daughter loved the time that she spent under Nina's tutelage. I made the right decision as a parent and I look forward to seeing my daughter grow . Thank you Nina.
