Warwick Tutor - 1 to 1 tuition for adults and children

Mature student, Adult maths for nursing

“I can’t thank Nicola enough. I’ve had a terrible phobia of maths for over 30 years!

 

I’m thinking of returning to nursing and Nicola has helped me enormously to understand drug calculations.

 

She’s very warm and friendly which puts you at ease and she explains everything in a way that you can understand. I’d really recommend her.”

Nicola Bhalerao - Warwick Tutor

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.
