About
My name is Alex, and I am a magna cum laude graduate of Columbia University. For the past five years, I have been tutoring and mentoring students from middle school to college, specializing in standardized test preparation (SAT, PSAT, SSAT, ACT, APs, Regents, etc.) essay writing, and homework management (nearly every subject). I have also helped many students with college and prep school admissions essays who have gone on to attend some of the world's most prestigious institutions.
I focus on forging lasting, nurturing relationships with students. Each student has a unique approach to learning, and I personalize curricula to each student's individual needs. My aim is not only to teach the material but also to give my students the learning tools to be successful in their future academic pursuits. As a result, I hope to inspire within my students the desire to learn beyond what’s expected and have confidence in tackling the road ahead.
