About April


Bio

With 20 years of experience as a registered nurse, I can honestly say I love being a nurse and I love helping new nurses. I actually love Med/Surg and think NCLEX prep is fun, and I truly enjoy helping graduate nurses prepare for success. Currently, I am BSN clinical faculty at major state university and I know the challenges of nursing school are real! I can support you throughout your journey, from day one of nursing school, to HESI, ATI, NCLEX prep, to helping you prepare for interviews....

With 20 years of experience as a registered nurse, I can honestly say I love being a nurse and I love helping new nurses. I actually love Med/Surg and think NCLEX prep is fun, and I truly enjoy helping graduate nurses prepare for success. Currently, I am BSN clinical faculty at major state university and I know the challenges of nursing school are real! I can support you throughout your journey, from day one of nursing school, to HESI, ATI, NCLEX prep, to helping you prepare for interviews. Whether you are struggling grasping concepts, understanding fundamentals, or need help with question strategy, I can help. If you are a repeat NCLEX taker, do not worry, this is not a reflection of your ability, we will get a game plan together for passing! I spent many years as a successful nurse manager of an ortho/trauma/burn unit at a large Magnet designated acute care level one trauma center, and am familiar with hiring, mentoring, coaching, and teaching both graduate and experienced nurses. Engaging and make connections with nursing students and graduate nurses comes naturally for me.
In addition to an MSN, BSN, CMSRN, TNCC, TCAR, BLS, and ACLS, I have served on numerous quality improvement committees and projects resulting in improved patient experience, quality patient outcomes, and financial stewardship. Including experience in pain management, patient safety, peer review, government regulations and reimbursement, post-op spine care, acute trauma care, burn, elective orthopedic procedures, traumatic orthopedic conditions, medical-surgical care, postpartum care, diabetes, wound care, mental illness, addiction, and psych. I believe nursing is a life-long journey of continuing education, new experiences, and adapting to the healthcare needs of the patients we serve. I would love the opportunity to tutor nurses or nursing students that have the heart and desire to make a difference! Please contact me for your tutoring needs. I commit to making it fun, using realistic scenarios, and provide honest feedback.

April Tutor

To everyone searching for a tutor or feels lost on how to prepare for the NCLEX, April is your girl. I wish I could put into words how incredible she is. Not only is she an amazing teacher, she is so caring and helpful in ensuring you understand the material. She will help reduce your stress levels while at the same time making sure you know your material and what to do to prepare for your big day. If you need help, don’t look any further. Thank you so much April.

Finally Passed My NCLEX Thanks to April

April is an incredible tutor! I was a repeat test-taker and struggled with answering strategies even though I knew the content. She patiently guided me through bootcamp questions and taught me how to think like NCLEX. Her explanations were clear, encouraging, and focused on building my confidence. Because of her, I finally passed my NCLEX! I highly recommend her to anyone who feels stuck or overwhelmed she truly makes a difference.

April!

You will just not regret choosing to study with April. She is an overflowing infinity pool of nursing knowledge! She has got the book knowledge and the clinical knowledge down to a science. So smart, and our lessons were very productive and efficient. Could not have asked for a better tutor! I am so glad I found her and she was such a great fit for me.

NCLEX Success

As a two-time (NCLEX) test taker going on my third try (and passing), I was grasping for confidence and strategies. Finding April was the best thing I have ever done for myself. If you're looking for a tutor, whether you are a repeat test taker or a first-time test taker, look no further. April is your girl! April is everything I could have asked for and more. Not only did she pick me back up, but she also gave me much-needed confidence in myself. She is exceptionally intelligent, yet she explains things straightforwardly. She teaches various approaches to tackling regular multiple-choice, SATA, case studies, and bow-tie questions. I became so excited to meet with her for tutoring! She is a gift to nursing!

NCLEX

April is amazing! I passed my NCLEX in 85 questions with her help! When I first took the NCLEX I failed in 85. She is so sweet and accommodating! Reach out to April if you need help with studying for your nclex!!!

amazing

Her aura is great. I have been with many tutors and this is the first time I really could connect to somebody. I felt very easy and I will be taking more sessions with her and pass my Nclex -RN this time. Thank you April!

5 stars!!!

After two failed attempts and several breakdowns later I was feeling extremely lost in my nursing journey, April not only picked me up but she carried me across the finish line. I completely owe my passing the NCLEX to her and words cannot describe the gratitude I feel for her. She is caring and extremely encouraging and anyone would be lucky to have her tutor them I promise she will get you there.

awesome teacher!

I’m so thankful for April, she was so amazing and explained everything so well for my upcoming ATI pediatrics test. She went into detail and I understood everything thoroughly! If you’re thinking about booking the session please do it you will be so grateful for her like I was!

The Greatest Tutor!!

This will be my fourth time taking the NCLEX. This is also my first time going over NCLEX prep with a tutor. April is beyond awesome. She really breaks down the topics for you, including pharmacology. I struggled with learning the different meds for each body system and she just makes it so easy to comprehend. I have a few more lessons with April prior to my retake but feel so much more confident when answering practice questions and case studies. If you need help understanding topics and going into depth about those topics, April is your girl!
