Personal Statement

My tutoring practice is focused on high school entrance exams, particularly the SHSAT. My experience as a classroom teacher in both math and English (both!), as well as my knowledge of these tests, has allowed me to set students on the road to success. SHSAT students of mine have received offers to Stuyvesant, Bronx Science, and Brooklyn Tech.

MY GENERAL APPROACH
I work with students looking for longterm prep, last-minute sessions, or somewhere in between. My goal for each student is to...

My son has been taking lessons with Nick and I am very pleased with how things are going. Nick is truly awesome. My son will be taking the 9th grade SHSAT and he is definitely feeling more confident because of the strategies Nick has shown him to help solve the problems as well as all the practice work assigned. Looking for a tutor can be a little overwhelming cause you really don?t know who would be a good fit for your child but I would definitely recommend Nick and will continue to use him in the future if needed.

My 12 year old needed help with the ELA portion of the SHSAT and Nick had some really good strategies and was able to zero in on the problem areas/questions. We will be scheduling more lessons for sure!!

Nick helped my daughter familiarize herself with the THACHS exam. He taught her skills that would potentially be on the test. He provided her with a folder so she can study in her spare time. He was punctual and knowledgeable in the subject areas I plan on having him tutor my daughter for the SHSAT exam also.

My niece said that Nick is very good with her in explaining the work in a way she understands, he is patient and understanding. We are very happy we chose Nick.

Excellent first session with clear goals. My daughter found Nick interesting but very clear in his review and instruction. He arrived with a game plan for the session and work in between.

I've had a bunch of tutors before but I've never had anyone as knowledgeable as Nick. I needed a quick review of American History and he guided me through the main concepts and details I needed to know. Then he taught me how to write an essay for the American History Regents exam. Since he said he was a math teacher, I randomly asked if he could help me with a trig problem at the end of the session and he said 'sure' and helped me with that too. Really impressed by how much he knows and such a fun guy to work with (great sense of humor btw). I think I learn more in a session with Nick than in 10 months of school. Recommend!
