Bio
Hi! My name is Nicole Basile and I currently live in Pennsylvania. I have two kids who are in High School, so I spend my time out of the classroom at their activities, watching the marching band at football games, cheering on the tennis team, and enjoying dance recitals. As a tutor, I try to find where your missing detail in understanding is, so I start with a lot of questions to try to get you to explain your thinking and see where I can help fill in any gaps or adjust any misconceptions. With math and science, there is often a lot of problem solving, so I'll be asking you to explain how you're solving the problem. I often find you know more than you realize! This also helps keep our time together the most effective, as I'm not teaching you what you already know. I truly enjoy working one-on-one with students to help them find that "lightbulb" moment. I look forward to working with you to help understand math and science concepts!
