About Nelson

Experience: 3 yrs

I'm passionate about helping students unlock their full potential. With three years of tutoring experience and some graduate school studies, I specialize in Math, Science, Test Preparation, and Computers for high school, adult, and college learners. My focus is on building confidence and fostering a love for learning, not just memorization. I assess a student's individual learning style by actively listening and observing their initial interactions with new material. To keep students motivated, I celebrate small successes and provide consistent positive reinforcement. Communication is essential for understanding student needs, progress, and setting clear expectations. Seeing a student's confidence grow as they master new skills is the most rewarding aspect of being a tutor. I am comfortable with pets and available to tutor at your home, a center, online, the library, or a coffee shop. I would love to help you achieve your academic goals!

Nelson was wonderful with my son. He tutored him in Math and programming, helping him grasp complex but fundamental subject matter in the past term. While engaging with my son, he picked out his keen interest in soccer and eventually teaching him to dribble.
