About Nicholas LaPoma

Nicholas LaPoma, aka "Nick The tutor," helps students from all over the country prepare for standardized tests and write outstanding college applications. Nick's seriousness about test prep began when at the age of 19 he started teaching classes for one of the largest test prep companies in the world. After teaching intensive SAT, ACT, and LSAT classes, Nick decided to apply to law school.

After obtaining numerous full ride scholarships to top law schools, he embarked on his career as an attorney. In the meantime Nick began working for boutique NYC based tutoring companies. At these companies Nick was responsible for preparing middle school and high school students around the city for exams like the SHSAT, SAT, and ACT, as well as assisting students with college essays and applications. He often felt their approach to test prep was too rigid, impersonal, and not adaptive to each student's learning style. Nick knew there was a better and more effective way to help students improve their test scores. A few years later in 2014, Nick founded Curvebreakers Test Prep and dedicated all his time and energy to preparing students for college. Nick currently works with over 10 schools on SAT prep programs, and has helped his students gain admission to nearly every top college including all of the Ivy League Universities. Nick has a unique approach to the process that includes ample communication with parents as well as an extreme amount of individualization. Nick focuses on application storytelling and creative college essay writing with his students as this will be the most important soft factor for a top college. Nick has over 60 million views across all social media platforms (and counting). Nick also scored in the 99th percentile on the SAT as a high school student.
