Student Feedback for Alina

"Excellent tutor"

- Steve from Raeford, NC

Alina is an excellent tutor!! I am taking an on-line statistics class and was having trouble understanding the lessons. Alina was able to explain the lessons in a way that I could understand, and I was able complete my assignments. If you are looking for a math tutor(especially for statistics), do your self a favor and hire Alina K. She responded to my email the same day, and scheduled the session the next day. Fast service.

"Lifesaver!"

- Jerry from Bellevue, WA

I was over three quarters through with my Masters degree program when I had to take a statistics class. Although I knew math was not my strong suit, I thought I could get by on my own. Since the program is online, there is no student to professor contact. This lack of interaction has not generally been a problem for me. The material in the statistics class became overwhelming for me to understand though. A few weeks into it I felt as though I had been overtaken by a tidal wave and my head was underwater. My grades for individual assignments reflected my frustrations. I reached out in blind faith to Wyzant for help and found Alina, who became my light.

Our first session was less than two hours but in that short time, Alina completely transformed my view of statistics. Her expertise in the subject was instantly apparent. With a mastery of the subject and a keen sense of understanding my particular sticking points, she patiently helped me understand the basic concept. This new grasp of the basics allowed me to achieve some degree of confidence and at least got me through an otherwise disastrous week.

I continued to meet with Alina throughout the remainder of the course. I met with her about once to twice a week. Each time she guided and helped me understand complex statistical equations. Alina was always mindful of the cost too and was amazingly effective in teaching in short periods. Not only did she help me scrape by; she helped me understand extremely complex statistical concepts resulting in me achieving near perfect grades.

To highlight one of the more practical lessons Alina taught me was her tutorial on how to effectively use MS Excel. I have used Excel to some degree throughout my career, but I have never before fully unlocked the possibilities the program has to offer. She showed me how to plug equations into certain cells and program the spreadsheet to calculate several figures with a fair amount of ease. We also used algebra in Excel, which made the drawn out statistical problems much easier to manage. I do not plan to be a statistician in the future, however, I will regularly use the skill Alina taught me with Excel in my professional field.

In the end I received a B plus from the class; a class I was destined to fail. Alina was a lifesaver for me and I am forever grateful for her service. I can not express the dedication she showed in tutoring me. I showed up for one session and Alina was visibly ill with the flu. She refused to let me leave and guided me through another difficult week while she was sick. Perhaps it was luck finding the perfect tutor in my first try online, I was definitely fortunate to have found Alina. I fully recommend her to anyone considering using a tutor for math.

"Impressive Motivator"

- Dan from Wade, NC

I am finishing my MA in Procurement and Acquisition and was starting PROC 5870 Pricing Integrity in Contracting, a subject area Alina was somewhat familiar with because the course used the concepts of Statistics. She was very helpful in her instructions, and as we moved through the class most of the formulas and concepts were alien to myself, but not to Alina! She knew them inside and out, and if she herself didn't understand the homework assignment, would take the time to educate herself on the subject and then, and THEN, tutor me on the subject! This class has been the most difficult class I have ever taken EVER, and I am proud to say, because of Alina, I received an A from the Professor who mentioned in an email that my course work and homework assignments were the most professional in appearance and organization and correct in material. Now, understand, their are students in the class that have been doing this JOB for years, I am a novice in this career field! Thank you Alina, and to potential students, I WOULD/WILL USE ALINA IN THE FUTURE WITH NO DOUBTS!

"great tutor and very patient. "

- Ahmed from Fort Bragg, NC

Alina is very patient and proficient in her subject. She is honest and humble. When she doesn't know something she's honest and she finds the answer out. She's a patient tutor, subject matter expert, and does not waste time and very careful to stop the clock when done with instructing.

"Very Patient!"

- Corey from Spring Lake, NC

I met with her today and what I can say is Amazing! I am currently taking a statistic class and I was really struggling with the homework. After one hour I really understand it. She is worth the investment you won't be dissapointed!
