Personal information
Bio
Hello! My name is Nickesha Barnes-Allen and I'm excited to be a tutor with Braintrust. I have fifteen years of classroom experience teaching grades Pre-K through eighth grade. I have teaching certifications in Generalist 4-8, Special Education, and School Counselor. I also have earned a M.Ed. and Masters Certification in Behavior Analysis. I love that I get to support my students academically and emotionally. There is nothing greater than watching a student's growth while learning and knowing you played a role in their success.
