Personal Description:

I pride myself on being an extremely organised, patient and understanding person, who develops and maintains great rapport with students and parents.
I enjoy all that teaching offers and feel extremely proud of students achievements.

Tutoring Experience:

I have studied English to degree level and have a Ba Hons in Graphic Design and PGCE in D&T. I have worked at an Independent school as well as being a designated 1/1 tutor within the school for small groups of children.
I am currently tutoring and have been for the past 12 years, at weekends. I teach D&T and Maths (Secondary) full time.

Tutoring Approach:

I am an 11 Plus tuition specialist, have excellent references and a 90%+ pass rate for students gaining entry into their first choice school.
We have step by step teacher led lessons and our pupils become confident and independent learners.
I liaise regularly with parents and carers, giving feedback and assessment outcomes.

With the changes to the GCSE specifications it is important for students to feel confident and have a thorough understanding of the changes and how it affects them. I work to specific exam board requirements and liase with students core teachers to ensure consistency.

From Claire (5/5): (Primary Entrance Exams) Good tuition so far, my son likes her!

From Diane (5/5): (Primary Entrance Exams) Nicola made an excellent impression on me from her first email, she invited my daughter to meet her before we signed up and was extremely personable she went through the structure of her lessons and homework expectations. My Daughter really enjoys her lessons and finds learning with Nicola fun and we noticed an improvement in her understanding of Maths after the first lesson.
I would not hesitate to recommend her to others.

From Sian (5/5): (GCSE Maths) My daughter (Year 10 GCSE) has had one Maths session so far with Nikki and really enjoyed it! Nikki is positive, commited and friendly and my daughter looks forwards to lessons and feels she has already gained in confidence.

From Laurretta (5/5): (Secondary Entrance Exams) Nicola has been very excellent and my son loves her tutoring classes with her.

From Jon (5/5): (Primary Maths) We approached Nikki for help with our son as he was struggling with numeracy at school. Our son has been visiting Nikki for 6 weeks and he is already showing improvement and is feeling much more confident. At the beginning, she listened to our concerns and assessed his level of understanding. She uses various methods of teaching, makes her sessions fun and gives homework to do during the week. Nikki is very friendly and our son enjoys going to see her. We would recommend Nikki to any parent who feels their child needs extra help.

From Sarah (3/5): (Primary English) I can't give feedback on Nicola because I decided not to use her. She seemed very friendly and professional on the phone and seemed to understand what I was looking for. I simply found someone much closer to my home.

From Ruth Elizabeth (5/5): (Secondary Entrance Exams) we have only had one session so far but my son finds her easy to work with.

From Sherry (5/5): (Primary English) Nicola is a very good tutor. She's friendly,kind and has the know-how to help my daughter on her SATs & 11+ exams. I feel so lucky to have found her via First Tutors' help. Thanks!
