Alina is definitely the cream of the crop!

She is not someone who just sits with your child for an hour and helps him with whatever the student says he needs help with. She digs deeper!

I have more than 20 years of tutoring and teaching experience. Cultural and demographic diversity of my clients helped me develop teaching styles suitable to very diverse needs of my students. I tutor both, children and adults. My main focus is in Test Preparation, Mathematics, and Statistics. However, I also worked with students studying Russian, Piano, also beginning Economics and Accounting.
Most of the problems that my students have, result from a failure to install in them the thinking...

Alina is definitely the cream of the crop!
Alina is SO worth her weight in Gold for those parents that need someone to take the ball and run with it! She is not someone who just sits with your child for an hour and helps him with whatever the student says he needs help with. She digs deeper! She makes sure the student is looking at the Big Picture along with the small details of the next homework assignment due. She helps them longer if they need the time to ‘get it' and cuts the session short if they can do it independently. She emails parents to let them know where their kiddo is at, where he needs to go, and what he needs to get there. She started with my son in Nov., at which point he was struggling in Statistics. In fact, at that time, his Statistics teacher had already mentioned that he ‘might not want to do a 2nd semester of Statistics.' By January, with Alina’s dedicated support, he completed the class with a ‘B' and with the teacher pulling him aside and commenting, “I’m glad you decided to stay and take the 2nd semester in this class.” Dedication, hard worker, math whiz, and integrity! Definitely the cream of the crop!

Great teacher!
Alina is worth every penny!! 2 year and counting since we started using her. And she changed my daughter’s mind about math. Thank you Alina.

Experienced and patient tutor, great commnunication
My daughter is taking SAT classes with Alina, and she has demonstrated significant progress after less than ten lessons so far. Alina has significant experience working with different students, and she has built up a set of pedagogical tools to adjust optimally for the specific student's needs. Alina's lessons are very energetic and engaging, and she makes the students think at their maximum capacity - which is the only way to learn and evolve. Another thing I appreciate working with Alina is the written feedback she gives after every lesson, which helps to understand the progress better and maintain effective three-way communication.

Great teacher!
My son said Alina has a method of teaching and explaining things that is different from any teacher/professor/tutor he has had and it is so much more effective! He says he understands things easily with her that he struggled with previously. He also does not respond well to online tutoring and very much prefers in person, but somehow she has mastered this as well and he is completely fine using her for online lessons. So thankful to have found her!

Excellent Tutor for Mathematics
Alina is very thorough, effective and engaging in the subject! She knows how to help the student with their problem areas and is quick to uncover their weaknesses. She is efficient with her time. My daughter is excited to attend her tutoring sessions and seems to be gaining confidence and strength in the subject.

Great geometry tutor!
Alina did a FANTASTIC job of not only helping my daughter with her geometry problems but of taking it to the next level! She made my daughter think beyond the problems to the bigger concepts! My daughter said she was fantastic!

Grades Are Up!
Since meeting with Alina twice a week for Algebra tutoring for my 8th grader, my sons Math grade has gone from a D+ to a B+ in one semester! He used to skip his assignments because he didn’t know how to do them- no missing assignments since last October. His confidence in Math has increased and he doesn’t dread his homework anymore. Alina makes him feel comfortable asking her questions he doesn’t know the answers to and she reviews concepts he might not have gotten the hang of, yet. Alina has a kind and gentle sense of humor with my son and I enjoy listening in on their interactions. I will refer all of my friends and family members to Alina if any of their children are having trouble with Algebra!
