After graduating with a BA from Rutgers with High Honors and a MS in Chemistry from Cornell University, I have taught high school, as well as worked for ETS and other tutoring services preparing students for: high school examinations in General Chemistry, Honors and Advanced Placement (AP). During my over 15 years of tutoring I have also tutored college level General Chemistry. I have helped both struggling students and advanced students meet their potential with individualized and organized instruction while sensitive to each student's personal needs. I also teach French, which is my native language. After graduating from a French high school with honors, I came to the USA and taught at the French Alliance in Boston while maintaining a private French tutoring practice. I teach all levels of French including I, II, III, IV, Honors, and AP. I also teach adults and children. In order for elementary school children to become comfortable/fluent in French (ages six and above) I have developed and tailored a French Curriculum. My French curriculum is individualized, flexible, friendly and fun. The following comments from Joan H, a private French student from Ridgewood, NJ attest to my teaching abilities:
"Nicole is a great French teacher! She's a native French speaker and a trained and skilled teacher who prepares lessons to meet the student where she is. She (Nicole) works on all aspects of learning a language: speaking, understanding, grammar, reading and conversation. She makes it lively and interesting by tailoring the class to my own interests. I highly recommend her." It is my goal and passion to teach each student as an individual and according to their strengths and needs. I encourage questions in both Chemistry and French to strengthen academic performance and as importantly, strengthen their problem-solving skills, meet their potential, and to develop the confidence needed for academic success. I am looking forward to hearing from you!

Excellent Tutor!

Nicole is a great tutor,very helpful and knowledgeable. Olivia is full of confidence after working with Nicole. Never having used a tutor before, our daughter was hesitant to start, but immediately felt a connection with and found confidence in Nicole. Nicole did a great job of answering my daughter's questions on the material and reviewing everything that my daughter was uncertain about. She is incredibly patient and is willing to make sure you understand every concept before moving on, no matter how long it takes. She always came prepared with so much material and took the time to go through everything. Nicole was totally reliable, accessible, organized and patient. I am sure we will be setting up more time with you as the Chemistry course gets harder. We are very happy with the lessons! I highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks so much for your help!

Great tutor, long term engagement with our daughter

Excellent French Tutor

My son was struggling with AP French but was able to review fundamental building blocks to catch up with his class. I recommend Nicole for any French learning students.

Extremely helpful

We are so glad that we found Nicole to tutor our 10th grader. During the summer she helped my daughter prepare for a French placement test and now she is helping her with honors Chemistry. She’s a great tutor. Thank you!

Clear and concise tutor

She gave me good clarification on the topics I struggled with. She was able to explain very thoroughly and it was easier for me to understand. I had a very good session and I am able to understand the topics now.

The best chemistry tutor

A knowledgeable tutor who also knows how to explain! She teaches my daughter (10th grade) chemistry once a week and really helps her understand what's going on.
