Alexander

Certified Tutor

In 2017, I founded an ACT tutoring program at a local community center for underprivileged youth. After leading my first few sessions, the entire class had demonstrated a marked improvement in their scores. It was then and there that I fully appreciated the importance of tutoring, and decided to expand my practice to one-on-one private sessions. With nearly three years of experience, I am confident in my ability to help any student--whether it's mastering a mathematical concept, improving a standardized test score, or perfecting an essay.

I tutor for the ACT and SAT, as well as middle- and high school-level math and English (i.e., essay writing and reading comprehension). These four topic areas are my favorite subjects to tutor for a few reasons: first, the ACT/SAT--for better or for worse--is the ultimate equalizer when it comes to your college application. Improving your score by even a single point can directly impact your rate of acceptance. With years of excellent results, I am confident that the curriculum I've developed for standardized test prep will improve your ACT or SAT score. Finally, I have a deep passion for mathematics (especially as an economics major) and literature/composition (as both a writer and student journalist). These two subjects have been the central focus of my private lessons thus far. I have experience in tutoring English--writing and reading--as well as perfecting Common Application essays. For math, I've tutored clients in subjects ranging from trigonometry to geometry to calculus.

If you or your child needs help in any of the aforementioned subject areas, don't hesitate to reach out!
