About Nancy

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

After retiring from successful professional careers, I began my favorite career over 5 years ago, tutoring and teaching. I tutoring from grade 4 and up, including AP and Honors levels. I have also taught several home-school students in 1 to all their classes successfully. I engage my students with very individualized approaches. My goals vary from building knowledge, adding challenging lessons, and academic coaching. Often I include executive functioning skills, like organizing, prioritizing, and breaking big projects down to smaller steps while working on homework, projects and tests. I make sure my kids have the necessary, strong foundational skills to help them be confident, successful students Several students and their families have asked for guidance in choosing summer, and extra-curricular programs, tutoring in standardized test prep, and college related support: search, application essay writing, and more. I am extremely committed to each of my students.

We are grateful for Nancy's help in preparing our 10-year-old daughter for private school admission and improving her overall academics. She was always punctual, flexible with our schedule and incredibly knowledgeable in math, reading, vocabulary and ISEE test prep. Thanks to her support, our daughter made great academic progress and was accepted into the private school of her choice. Highly recommend Nancy for anyone seeking a dedicated and effective tutor!
