Greetings! I'm a flight instructor with almost 20 years of experience teaching many topics, mainly SAT and ACT.

I am a Commercial Pilot with multi-engine and instrument ratings, and I'm a certified flight instructor (CFI) with an instrument rating on my instructional certificate (CFII), teaching out of the Fort Lauderdale area.

I'm known as a great teacher. I have a natural ability to simplify complex topics and help students to digest large amounts of material, which are both super valuable in aviation. If you're familiar with aviation, half of the struggle is finding out what information you should be studying. For students doing regular flight instruction with me, the ground instruction is done through free materials that I have personally written and will provide to you as part of the experience. I graduated from Yale University in 2001 with a B.A. in Political Science.

Most importantly, I instruct for the hours, not for the money. So the only true cost you'll be paying is the rental cost of the airplane. Combined with the $10 Wyzant fee, this brings the cost of flight lessons to around $200 per hour. If you know a lot about aviation, you know that this is about the most affordable flgiht instruction money can buy.

I currently work with:
-Private Pilot Students
-Instrument Rating Students
-Commercial Pilot Students

Very thorough, supportive tutor

Alex has been a consistently thoughtful and supportive tutor who explains difficult concepts more clearly than any teacher I have ever had. I progressed so much in the six weeks I worked with him on SAT prep, and would recommend him to anyone who is really committed to learning and improving.

Engaging and encouraging, great ACT tutor!

I was a little hesitant to go with virtual tutoring vs. in person, but I'm so glad we gave it a try! Alex was great getting my son engaged, walking him through the questions he missed on the ACT, assessing his knowledge, and demystifying ACT questions. He provided a great summary for my son to follow and refer to, organized so it can expand for future sessions. My son had previously done a 2 day "bootcamp" to prep for his first ACT, which was helpful, but he said Alex already gave him more information and tips than that provided. Alex was very encouraging and generous with his time, and we're excited to continue working with him. Highly recommended!

Very successful lesson

Alex's explanations are easy to understand. I felt that I Left the session feeling confident on subjects that I was weak on prior to the session. This makes me very happy.

Great ACT review

My son stated that Alex explains everything very clearly. His tricks like how many you have to get right for your target score instead trying to finish the text was great! He gives a lot of HW so my son is practicing daily. We also like that he gives rules and records the session so he can listen again.
