About Nicholas

Hey!

I'm Nick. Founder of The College Lad.

For almost 10 years now, I've been a leading test prep guru and writing coach in sunny Southern California.

I've tutored on-set with some of America's brightest young on-screen talent and presented on application essays and test strategy to parents and students all over the Los Angeles area.

I'm the author of the "College Lad" curriculum and the tutor of choice for students who are committed to hitting 1500+ on SAT or 34+ on ACT.

My writing has been published in over a dozen publications, and I’ve helped hundreds of students perfect straightforward, practical techniques for improving their own writing. My strength is listening to and understanding what my students really want to say, then helping them shape it into an original, compelling essay.

Year in and year out, my students earn admission to every Ivy League school, Stanford, MIT, Georgetown (my alma mater), Duke, Northwestern, and other top-ranked institutions.

I want to get you there too.

In both writing and test prep, students often know how to do a lot more than they realize. It's always a great moment when things start to click and a student connects their skills with what's on the page in front of them.

Starting before I graduated from Georgetown University with a degree in Economics and English, I've been teaching SAT, ACT, and Writing for a decade. I've trained with Revolution Prep, The Princeton Review, and Compass Education before starting on my own.

The whole point of tutoring is to provide a customized education, so it always starts with getting to know the student - what works well and what doesn't - and putting together a plan for where to focus. 



A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
1. What are your target colleges? This will help shape realistic goals for performance on standardized tests.

2. How much time can I put into this? Whether writing or test prep, consider how often you can practice. The less time you have to practice, the earlier in a given cycle you should start.
