Tutoring Testimonials (via Facebook)

We have had Nicole with us all thru high school for my oldest son and I am so thrilled I haven't had to try to help with his math classes and could just leave that to her. I have loved that she can tutor all subjects, as well as come to us (well...pre-covid anyway). We will now continue with her with our freshman son. Thank you Nicole!!

- Jennifer King, August 2020

I could not recommend anyone better than Nicole. Since starting with her I have noticed not only a difference in my daughters work, but with her confidence in doing her work too. I’m so glad she was recommended to us!

- Lauren Beamer, August 2020

Nicole is awesome! She has been incredibly helpful for my daughter in several subjects. Definitely recommend her if you want an A+ Tutor!

- Christopher Schreur, August 2020

Nicole is simply amazing! So knowledgeable and so patient with my son. We just starting working with her this past year with the curriculum from IM2 at Vista and she gives him so much confidence and preparation for every upcoming test! I will never let her go! please never move Nicole!

- Jani Ludvigson, October 2018

Nicole is simply the best. She is extremely knowledgeable and kind. She has helped our son in math so much. She “gets” him and is patient and keeps him on track. We have had her for a year now for math and it’s also such a bonus that she is also able to tutor him on other subjects as well like Spanish! Don’t know what we would do without you, Nicole!

Thank you!!!

- Bethany Moura, September 2018

Nicole loves math and teaching and is professional, consistent and reliable!

We have been so pleased with the results and have referred her many times!! My daughter is now a senior at Vista del Lago and has survived high school Math thanks to Nicole!

- Lisa Mercado, September 2018

Nicole is truly amazing! She has been with us for 1 year, working with both my sophomore and my freshman @ Vista del Lago high school. She has helped them get organized, study for tests, time management, prioritize projects and plan for the future. Tests scores have gone up and the kids are happy and having fun. I would 100% recommend Nicole @ shine bright learning center for any student. Thank you Nicole for everything you do for my kids.

- Michelle Owen, August 2017

My freshman just started working with Nicole, and his attitude after the first session was so upbeat! The very next day he earned a B on his math quiz...his first this year! So glad we found you Nicole:)

- Janet Harms, September 2016

Nicole is our secret weapon! My four year old son started reading the very first day he worked with Nicole! Our two year old daughter is so advanced for her age... she can count to 30, knows all of her letters, and is starting to sound out words with Nicole's help.

Nicole is so proactive, develops the lesson plans and all of the materials that go along with it. I have never been anything short of impressed.

If I had to pick between preschool and Nicole, I would definitely choose Nicole.
