Beyond the SAT, I tutor

- AP Calculus BC
- General calculus
- Linear algebra

As a Mathematics major at the University of Michigan, I have mastered the skills and topics taught in middle school through early college, with experience tutoring students aged 11 to 24.

While I love math, teaching others is my greatest talent. I struggled with math until I was 16 years old, so I know how to explain it in a way that is clear to anyone---especially students who struggle to understand math.

All in all, I am a friendly and laid-back person - tutoring sessions with me are always fun and casual. I have a flexible schedule and I will work with you to make sure I can accommodate your/your student's needs.

SAT Reading

In my 2+ years of studying for the SAT, I discovered the strategies that are key to succeeding on the EBRW section of the SAT. I can help your student learn exactly how to approach each kind of passage and each kind of question so that they avoid "silly mistakes" and improve their critical thinking. I have also memorized and mastered the grammatical/conventional rules necessary to succeed on the Writing section.

Homeschool

Algebra 1,

Algebra 1

Since taking Algebra as a high schooler, I have mastered much more complex topics that required complete fluency in Algebra I. I have been tutoring students in Algebra I since 2020 and have successfully guided them to a holistic understanding of the core concepts.
Algebra 2,

Algebra 2

When I took the 2019 NYS Algebra II Regents Exam, I was the only person from my school district to receive a perfect score of 100%. I have mastered all concepts taught in Algebra II as I have needed them to succeed in higher level math subjects such as SAT Math and calculus.
Geometry,

Geometry

I finished my own geometry course with an A+ and have continued to use geometry applications in my current studies. I have tutored several students in geometry to the point of mastery. This is because I not only teach them the topics, but I also ensure that the student understands the underlying concepts, which is crucial in geometry.
SAT Math,

SAT Math

I scored a perfect 800 on the October 2020 SAT Math and a perfect 760 on the October 2019 PSAT Math. I consistently got perfect scores on SAT/PSAT math not only because I have mastered the concepts tested, but also because I am an expert on the structure of the SAT: I know exactly what kinds of questions are asked and what tricks must be used to solve them quickly.

Excellent SAT Tutor

Alexander was not only responsive and always on time, but taught SAT strategy, in a way that simplified the concepts. My son learned so much in just a few tutoring sessions. If we need a tutor going forward, we will definitely use her again.

Jennifer, 4 lessons with Alexandra

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

She helped my daughter with SAT reading and we could already see her performing good in her practice test. Alexandra was great in understanding her problem and help her resolve the same in 2 sessions

Shailendra, 2 lessons with Alexandra

Very kind, patient and helpful

Alex was so kind and really explained in detail how to work through the math problems to my daughter. She made sure my daughter was understanding the concepts before moving on to the next problem. Alex was patient with my daughter when she asked questions. We will definitely be using Alex again as we get though the school year.

Amazing and knowledgeable tutor!

Alexandra is an amazing tutor. She tutored me for the SAT and was very knowledgeable, kind, and patient. She also assigned homework for me and went over questions I got wrong. I highly recommend her for SAT tutoring!!

Personable, Adaptive, and Knowledgeable Tutor

I reached out to Alexandra before a very big test hoping to get a little clarification on logarithms (college algebra), little did I know I was going to get very personalized help on wide variety of topics. With her help, tips, and tricks she helped me pass confidently after failing my first attempt on this exam. She is amazing at understanding what you need as a student and adapting her teaching ways to meet your needs, for me I learn better visually instead of through verbal explanations and she had no problem catering to this need. Has good resources to share for practice materials, and is a very kind and caring person. She cares about the end result after the lesson and making sure she's truly helping you! There wasn't a single problem or topic that I brought to her for help that she wasn't confident in talking about. Comfortable and positive learning environment. Well worth my money!

Interesting and patient tutor!

Alex helped me prepare for the SAT, creating lesson plans that covered my weak spots in both English and Math. The hour was always filled with material but interesting nonetheless. I learned a lot of patterns, tricks and the quickest ways to solve questions. Very productive and supportive!!

Alexandra has been fantastic with my son August. We got lucky with at least 2 Wyzant tutors though not in punctuality or commitment . Alexandra has been great on all accounts— a patient, clear in communication and understanding tutor and Alexandra has never canceled a session or simply didn’t show. Much appreciated — many thanks !
