Quick to answer, decisive, flexible
Kenneth, 1 lesson with NicholasNicholas was able to set up a session with me super fast, he helped me with my github questions, helped me navigate the oft maligned github web ui, and when we were able to answer my questions early, was able to pivot into answering unrelated python questions and showed me how to set up a virtual environment. 5/5 thanks Nicholas!

DO NOT BOOK
Do Not Book!! I ended up scheduling a tutoring session for two hour help in C++ which we would meet the following day. Nicholas had told me he couldn't do two hours but offered to split the session into two different times. The next day I had contacted Nicholas saying that I would be unable to meet the earlier session as I had an emergency and couldn't attend, but would be able to meet with him later in the evening. The lesson while being ok, didn't offer me much help ( I wish Nicholas had read the pdf assignment I sent him). After the lesson, Nicholas ended up charging me for the earlier lesson in full as well as the lesson I had with him currently. He had never mentioned to me that he would do this and it all came as a surprise to me. To save everyone the pain, please do not book with him.
Ben, 2 lessons with NicholasTutor responded:I appreciate your feedback, but I must clarify a few points. Firstly, my rate and cancellation policy are clearly outlined, ensuring transparency for all students. While I understand a cancellation fee is frustrating, I rely on these sessions for income whereas the student was already planning to pay the full fee for two hours in the first place and cancellation fees are necessary because other students are denied sessions when slots are reserved and then canceled last minute penalizing my loyal clients. Regarding the lesson content, I always strive to provide tailored assistance based on student needs. It's inaccurate to suggest I didn't review the assignment, in fact, I've successfully guided two other students through this exact assignment in the past. I stand by my policies and commitment to providing quality tutoring services. Rest assured, I will address your concerns internally, but I expect this review to be removed shortly due to its abusive and inaccurate nature, which violates platform policies.
Very patient
Nicholas was very patient with me, I have no idea how to code so he had to go over very basic stuff with me and walked me through it
