Your Instructor
Hi there! I'm Brooke!
I'm a registered nurse with hands-on experience in ICU, ER, med-sure, pre-op, and recovery -- and I've been teaching nursing students since 2011. I earned both my BSN and MS (with an emphasis in nursing education) from the University of Oklahoma.
Over the years, I've had the privilege of teaching at both community colleges and universities, spending much of that time guiding students through their fourth and final semester -- the critical care and emergent health content that can feel especially daunting. I've also loved running skills labs and leading simulations, and these days I teach mental health nursing in the classroom.
Teaching genuinely lights me up. I've seen firsthand how much students need support that actually meets them where they are -- practical, clear, and easy to access when they need it most, whether that's during clinical, studying for an exam, or navigation those first nerve-wracking months as a new grad.
That's why I am here: to provide a one-stop-shop of nursing resources that feel like they were made for you,
I'd love to know -- How can I help you today?
Brooke, The Nursing Professor

“Brooke knows nursing school!!
She gets it - the exams, the teaching, the enormous textbooks. And she breaks it down comprehensively so that you understand the content and feel comfortable going into each test thinking “I got this!” Teachers in the classroom can only get you so far. That’s where Brooke comes in.
It’s like having your own personal tutor for every unit in real time, as it comes up in your class. She explains things thoroughly and breaks it down so it can be easily understood and digested.
The tools she provides are invaluable - the “cheat sheets,” PowerPoints, interactive Facebook lives, they all come together to give you the best chance of not just making it through nursing school, but succeeding at your best potential!
I couldn’t have done it without her!”

"I did not know about your website for the first test. Wish I did! Bc after using it for the last month I was able to bring up my score 17 points! Thank goodness! Thank you for all of your help! Test was challenging but I definitely knew the material better!"
"Your site really helped me pass last semester!! Explained everything that we weren’t taught in class! Especially those self study topics. Listening to the podcast or Facebook live was like sitting in the class. I’m a visual and listener type of learner, so it was perfect!"
