About Nicole

Bio

Hi :),

I can help you with math! I have a bachelors in Pure Math and a Masters in applied math.
I've been teaching and tutoring over 10 years, starting as an assistant teaching Algebra in Grad school to working at a handful of different tutoring companies and private schools.

I am happy to help as needed with all levels of math up to Calc 3, linear algebra, and differential equations.

I specialize exam prep for the SAT, ACT, SSAT, HSPT, ISEE, TOEFL, IELTS, and some SAT subject tests.

Does your approver actually understand English? I'm happy to supply my transcripts. This site is piss poor for the 40 percent you charge.

Knowledgeable tutor

Nicole is a great resource to students working on their SSAT test! She helped my son improve his performance from a 2 to 6 on a scale of 1 to 10. I would highly recommend her for prealgebra classes and writing. Thank you, Nicole.

Ruth, 57 lessons with Nicole

great tutor!

Very thorough and hands on. We ran late for the session and she kindly waited for us to arrive. In a short amount of time she identified my daughters weakness and put a plan in place on how to help her succeed. We love this tutor and highly recommend. Thank you Nicole.

Vanessa, 2 lessons with Nicole

Very patient with a precocious 8 year old.

As always, Nicole rocks! The review needs to be twenty words, so here are the twenty words I must type.

Juan, 3 lessons with Nicole

Very patient with a precocious 8 year old.

Nicole seems to have an innate ability to connect with our child. She is able to help, guide, and focus an otherwise distracted child and get her back on target. Our kid cannot wait to do her homework!

Andrew, 103 lessons with Nicole

Knowledgeable and Patient

We worked on probability questions, permutations, combinations. Many tutors on Wyzant are not familiar with these topics, but she was very knowledgeable about it.

Nina, 5 lessons with Nicole

Knowledgeable and Helpful

Nicole did an amazing job with helping me understand some basic C++ principals and getting my chemistry project to work. She was a great help & I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for help with assignments related to C++.
