After school, term-time lessons
I have a waiting list for regular, after-school lessons in termtime (3.30pm onwards).
“How long is the waiting list?”
This is hard to tell, as when spaces become available, I can sometimes find people are no longer looking for a space, or they cannot make the specific day / time.
Contact me to be adding to the waiting list.
Current waiting list for regular, after-school lessons:
longer than a year
Morning lessons
I offer lessons in the day (9.30am / 10.45am) and these can be allocated on a regular or ‘ad hoc’ basis, depending on availability.
Check my bookings page for availability in the month ahead, or contact me if you are looking for a regular place / something further ahead.
Current availability for morning lessons:
'ad hoc' available now in the upcoming weeks
Contact me if interested.
Holiday lessons
I offer lessons in the school holidays (mornings and afternoon slots until 6pm) and these are allocated on a ‘first come, first served’ basis via my website.
Spaces usually book up quickly, and first priority is given to my current regulars.
To be notified when these open, usually a month ahead, fill in my contact form to be added to my list.

About Me
My name is Nicola Bhalerao and I am a private tutor based in Warwick. Since 2013, I have provided one-to-one tuition for children and adults. I specialise in maths tutoring, but cater for different requests, ranging from 11+ / entrance exams to various uses of maths, e.g. : interviews, job promotions, GCSE retakes, Functional Skills, nursing, teaching – any situation where confidence in maths is required.
My background is in computing, with a Computer Science degree from Warwick University. I have worked many years as a programmer, latterly in the games industry. Both my sons were tutored by me for the 11+ (they went to a local grammar school). I received training for teaching secondary school maths and I am fully CRB checked.
