About Nigel
Testimony from Past Tutoring Clients:
"I wouldn't have made it through my first semester of grad school without Nigel. He has a unique talent for breaking concepts down clearly. I had worked with other tutors before and still felt stuck but after working with Nigel I could even explain the concepts to the other people in my study group."
-Julie Richelson
-MBA Student, UNO
"I was trying to relearn calculus after years out of school but I was having trouble with a few concepts. Nigel was able to quickly answer my questions on concepts and problems that I was getting stuck on. I was already using Khan Academy, but Nigel showed me how to use it much more effectively. He always set me up to get the most out of my independent study time between tutoring sessions."

I teach foundational number sense, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, statistics, discrete math, probability, game theory, and physics. Whereas schools require students to conform to their structures, Tutoring has the flexibility to be whatever works best for the student. It can be mainly book-work or can be filled with hands-on experiences.
My broad background enables me to help students at all levels identify and fill gaps in their understanding of math. This is a critical advantage as almost all students who have learned math in a school setting have at one time or another been pushed to move through the curriculum in sync with peers rather than at their own pace. The way most schools operate all but guarantees that students will accumulate gaps in their math understanding, even as they earn passing grades and get promoted.
Students usually seek out tutoring when they first have the experience of 'hitting a wall' in math. This experience causes many to worry that they have reached the limit of their math ability, but that is not the case! Feeling like you hit a wall in math is usually the result of several little gaps catching up with you all at once. Tutoring can eliminate gaps with laser focus. It helps students to restore the positive feedback loop where struggle followed by success becomes a source of motivation.
