Mrs. Nesin was a wonderful, caring, and thorough tutor. She helped my daughter with math after the school year ended to ensure she was prepared to go back to school the following year. Always willing to teach math skills to her at her level and build from there. My family would highly recommend Nesin Tutors!

My daughter has always struggled with math. The tutors with Flatirons made a big difference. She ended up with an A in geometry! They made the process very easy by coming to our home and determining the day and time as she needed help.
