About Nerissa A

Experience: 2 yrs

I'm passionate about helping students unlock their potential through personalized support. With a graduate degree and two years of experience, I create engaging and patient learning environments where students develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. I actively listen to students and vary my teaching strategies to suit their individual learning styles, incorporating visual aids, hands-on activities, and discussions. I keep students motivated by connecting challenging topics to real-world examples, celebrating small successes, and breaking down complex problems. Communication is essential, and I provide regular updates to parents. Witnessing a student's "aha!" moment is the most rewarding part of tutoring. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I would love to help you or your student succeed in math, computers, business, or study skills!

Nerissa tutored my daughter all throughout high school in Math. My daughter struggled with every level of high school Math, but Nerissa’s guidance gave her both the foundation of skills to help her understand the material and the self confidence to stop doubting her ability. Nerissa was extremely knowledgeable in every aspect of Math fundamentals as well as was very patient. Nerissa was able to identify my daughter’s specific blockers and was able to adapt her teaching style to make learning and studying enjoyable. There were many times that I heard laughter and friendly conversation during her sessions. I highly recommend Nerissa for anyone who is struggling with Math. She seriously has a knack and truly shows her passion for others to find their confidence and be successful!
