“You have turned around my daughter's abilities in math and I believe in addition to your math and related knowledge you have a gift for instilling confidence. That is so, so unique!” - Diana B., CO
Nazli’s student’s come from diverse backgrounds and schools – private, charter and public schools in the greater Denver area as well as the University of Denver, Metro State University and CU Denver. Her students have gone on to colleges and high schools of their choice including Harvard University, Princeton University, Berkeley University, University of Chicago and Phillips Exeter Academy.
Nazli's approach to teaching is to guide her students with acquiring content skills as well as to help them develop the confidence they need to succeed. She listens carefully to her students and works with them to devise learning strategies that work for them. Every student is unique and every session is personalized depending on where the student is at during that session.
Nazli's students learn to appreciate real-world applications of the concepts they grapple with making learning fun and relevant. What may appear to be a complicated problem at first, quickly becomes something quite easy to solve, much to the relief of her students!
"Nazli is a quiet wonder. She has the gift of instilling calm and confidence in her students. My son used her for Chemistry. She not only helped him pass this class with a solid B, but helped him enjoy it. As a result, I believe he will retain more of the information. If my son had not worked with Nazli, I believe he would have had very different "chemistry" experience." LJ - Denver
Through CampEuclid, Nazli and her students have worked on quantum mechanics, Einstein's theory of special relativity, biotechnology, computer programming and a myriad of other student driven projects. Her students become active learners, guiding each session with their own curiosity and questions. More importantly, they learn how to learn, a key skill to have in today's rapidly changing work environments.
Nazli Nomanbhoy has been involved in education for over 15 years. She has taught at Colorado State University and the University of Denver as well as participated in research at Princeton University and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.
"I don’t know where we would have been without Nazli! She showed superhuman patience, calm and compassion for our very anxious 17 year old. My goal was for my daughter to be able to sit for the exam without having an anxiety attack. Nazli empowered her so much that not only did she take the test, raise her score by three points, but is also showing an interest in taking the test again to improve on her score. Nazli is the perfect tutor for anyone who struggles with anxiety." -Shari M., Denver, CO

Read What Parents Are Saying
"Nazli began tudoring our daughter at the start of her junior year for three 90 minute sessions per month. Nazli's test preparation methods, along with our daughter's diligent completion of assignments, translated into a 3 point increase on her ACT from her best practice tests with Nazli. Nazli's calm demeanor, test taking techniques, and patience in explaining complex math and science concepts helps build confidence and reduce test anxiety. In addition to achieving a desired ACT score, the work with Nazli helped our daughter perform stronger in math and science, acing each final and achieving As in honors coursework. We noticed a BIG difference in her confidence and her reduced level of stress due to her work with Nazli. We enthusiastically recommend Nazli and regularly refer friends to her." - Kate K., Denver, CO
"I cannot say enough good things about Nazli! As an unconventional student, I was extremely nervous to take the ACT again after 6 years. Nazli worked with me on building confidence, as well as addressing my areas of weakness to help me reach my goal score. Her tutoring was tailored to my specific needs and addressed my shortcomings in each subject. Together we were able to create specialized study plans and strategies to make my use of time more effective. She helped me improve my composite score by 4 points, taking me from a 27 to a 31! I cannot thank her enough!" - Molly K., Chicago, IL
"Since 10th Grade my daughter had struggled with her STEM classes and consequently had developed test anxiety. We had employed several tutors over the last year with limited improvement. Finally last fall I found Nazli. She has been very instrumental in my daughter's current success in school. She is kind, thoughtful, and patient. Her knowledge and gift for teaching has helped my daughter gain the confidence she was missing. Both my daughter and I feel so very lucky that she have been able to work with such a special person." Christina, Denver, CO
"Nazli N. has been a wonderful tutor for my son and my daughter. My son is a current 12th grader and he studied for the PSAT and SAT with Nazli last year. As a result of his PSAT score he is presently a National Merit a semi Finalist. He took the SAT only once and achieved his goal of a perfect math score. His overall scores was 2300. He was recently admitted to his first choice school, Princeton University. My 11th grade daughter is currently studying with Nazli. She just got her PSAT scores and she has the exact same overall score as her brother which should result in National Merit Scholar recognition. We are still studying for the SAT but Nazli's calm steady confident manner is infectious and perfect for the task of preparing students to successfully master the exam. We can't thank her enough!!" - AJ Jones, CO
"Nazli is a wonderful tutor. She tutored our daughter who is on the autism spectrum for part of her junior and senior years of high school. Nazli’s patience and skill allowed our daughter to survive Geometry ( a course that had made her scream), Algebra 2, and Physical Science. Nazli kept her focused on what she could achieve and did know. She built up her confidence and supported with kindness and calm. What a blessing for our family! There was no more screaming about homework only a quiet buzz around the kitchen table as the two worked together." --Elizabeth A., Denver, CO
