Hello there, my name is Alexander.
I received my Bachelor of Science in Health and Human Physiology in 2018 and my Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) degree in 2022.
I have been tutoring students of various ages (from middle school to adults) for over 10 years. I started tutoring Calculus I to college students as a senior in high school because I found I loved helping people understand the material that they were struggling with by helping them learn a consistent and easy-to-understand method of doing any problem they struggled with.

Whether you are struggling with algebra 1, advanced math classes like calculus 2, a variety of science classes ranging from elementary to university level, or one of the many other subjects I have taken or tutored, let me help you learn how to confidently and easily tackle any problem you are struggling with by putting to use all the skills I learned while going through the educational system, and while tutoring many other students, like yourself, over my 10+ years of experience.

In terms of my tutoring approach, I like to first get a thorough understanding of the student's immediate needs and more fundamental skill weaknesses, such as note-taking and study strategies. During sessions, I try to help with a student's immediate concerns, and then incorporate a bit of time working on the aforementioned more fundamental issues, as time permits.

Feel free to contact me with any additional questions or to schedule a lesson.

Update: I received a perfect 100% in math and above 92% in the other two sections of the TEAS exam which placed me in the top 1% of national test takers. Therefore, I am especially interested in helping anyone improve for the TEAS exam or there nursing education!

Approved Subjects

Anthropology

Anthropology

I was an official tutor for the University of Iowa's athletic department and this was one of the classes I tutored. I was allowed to tutor in this subject because I've taken three anthropology classes during my undergraduate career, and I have received an A in all of them.
Russian

Russian

I was born in Ukraine and have spoken Russian with my parents ever since I was 4 years old. I received a gold medal in a national high school Russian essay contest. I have helped my fellow peers in their undergraduate Russian classes.
TEAS

TEAS

I scored above 90% in each section of the TEAS. I also have tutored each of the individual subject areas covered by the TEAS exam such as math (elementary to calculus 2), reading (elementary to college), and grammar (elementary to college writing level). More generally, I have helped many individuals excel in tests I have taken (MCAT, GRE, GMAT, SAT, ACT, PSAT, TEAS, etc) by teaching them both content-specific and more general test-taking strategies
Tennis

Tennis

I got on my high school varsity tennis team as a freshman. I have since continued playing tennis with friends as it's a great lifelong sport.

Very knowledgeable and helpful.

I needed help with an essay question for an astronomy final exam and Alex helped me work through it. He broke the question down into parts and put it in a format that was very easy to follow. Overall, Alex was very helpful.
