"Hello! I'm Nick. I've been tutoring here since 2020 and find that my passion lies with helping people who speak English as a second language and students who have difficulty with the Spanish language. (However, this is not an exhaustive list by any means.) I graduated cum laude from Broward College in 2018 with a BAS in Management & Supervision and recently earned my master's degree in occupational therapy in 2023. I had some great professors and learned a great deal about how to reach people individually- to meet them where they are.

In my free time outside of practicing as an OT, I read many books on philosophy and metaphysics and I am finding this helpful when explaining ideas and concepts to people. I am able to find out what piques the interest of individuals and then use appropriate analogies and experiences to make whatever material it is I am discussing more digestible and understandable. I have always had a deep respect for teachers and truly enjoy helping people learn and understand.

I took 4 years of Spanish in high school, 2 in college, and lived with a family from Argentina for 3 years in Michigan. I have always been passionate about the Spanish language and with cultures of South America and Central America. I understand the need to sort of think in a different language and not simply attempt to directly translate. I can understand conceptions behind both English and Spanish and how they differ. I am proficient with written and conversational Spanish.

I enjoy helping students of all ages and recently worked as a tutor turned teacher for a charter school where I taught science to 6th, 7th, and 8th graders before starting my career as an occupational therapist. I love helping people learn in whatever subject they are interested and find the 1 on 1 connections I've made through Wyzant valuable to me personally as I continue my own growth and develop skills to be of maximum service to whomever I can." less...
