Experienced Tutor and Teacher

Alexia S.

Hi there! I'm Alexia, an experienced educator with a passion for fostering academic growth and confidence in students. Equipped with a degree in Psychology with a focus in Education from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, I am dedicated to empowering students to reach their full potential and succeed academically.

For the past six years, I have been privileged to work with a diverse range of students through the nonprofit Plexuss Foundation as well as fulfilling the role of lead teacher in an in-person, international school setting. My tutoring journey spans a wide spectrum, guiding students all the way through university-level. I am certified to teach a variety of subjects including Mathematics through Algebra 1, Reading Comprehension, Essay Writing, Grammar, and Study Skills. Additionally, my proficiency extends to Computer Skills, Arabic, specialized SAT/ACT English and Writing preparation, and state testing preparation. I have had great success in delivering personalized, interactive lesson plans that pinpoint and address gaps in students' understanding.

Regarding my method of teaching, I understand that each student learns differently. Some excel with traditional methods like textbooks and homework, while others thrive with interactive approaches such as games and videos. Recognizing this diversity, I am flexible in my teaching style, tailoring lessons to meet the unique needs of each student.

I look forward to partnering with you or your child on their academic journey, fostering a love for learning and meeting your learning goals together!
