About Alexandra

Bio

My name is Alexandra, and I have a BS in Chemical Engineering with a Biomolecular Engineering concentration. I am a published researcher and have confidence in helping others conquer multiple subjects and assignments. While in college, I have tutored classmates, as well as taught children starting at the age of five STEAM topics through fun/practical projects and examples.

My name is Alexandra, and I have a BS in Chemical Engineering with a Biomolecular Engineering concentration. I am a published researcher and have confidence in helping others conquer multiple subjects and assignments. While in college, I have tutored classmates, as well as taught children starting at the age of five STEAM topics through fun/practical projects and examples.

I get to know the person I am tutoring so with their strengths and weaknesses, we together can help them succeed. Everyone has a different learning style, so let's take advantage of that. If that means we need to play basketball to help learn multiplication, let's do it! This way, they can learn the material, leave the lesson feeling confident and able to apply what they have learned to similar problems. No child or adult is hopeless and with the will, they can learn and master any lesson.

With patience, practice, and persistence, I will take a kid struggling in math to being able to master the subject. I have scored over 95% on all my high school mathematics exams, as well as excelled in my university math classes with and without using a coded language such as Matlab. Technology is a great asset and can help solve complex problems quickly, however, I encourage and push students I tutor to not be afraid of any math problem so their strong foundation in understanding the material will allow them to solve complex problems with accuracy and time efficiency. I also help with test anxiety students in mathematics and teach them skills and tricks to be able to get the math section done with spare time to check their work.

I have excelled in Material Balance; in labs in classes within Biology, Chemistry, and Engineering labs; as well in advanced classes such as Thermodynamics and Separations. I not only listen and make sure I know where and what you are struggling with, but also get to know my student's learning style, so together we can get you to a better level of understanding. These subjects are challenging and overwhelming and I am glad to bre

Absolutely amazing tutor! THE BEST IVE HAD SO FARRRRR

We went over ap chem thermodynamics where Alexandra guided me through everything I didn't understand. When I was confused about something she took the time to go over it as many times as I needed. She taught me what my teacher couldn't. BEST TUTOR EVERRRRRR.

Great Tutor!!

Alexandria has been a great chemistry tutor for my daughter. She is very flexible with her time and knowledgeable about a wide range of chemistry topics. She would often follow up lessons by sending flashcards for my daughter to study. Would highly recommend!

Patient Teacher

Our experience with Alexandria is really good. She is helping my son with AP Bio, he was struggling remembering the vocabulary. It’s been few weeks Alexandria and my son like the way she teaches very patience and punctual and updates how the class went and helps him lots of resources.

Awesome Tutor, Highly Recommended

My teen needed help with trig and Alexandra was a big help! My teen really liked her and said she taught the concepts in an easy to understand way. We will definitely seek out Alexandra for future help with math!

Wonderful Tutor

Alexandra has a standing weekly tutoring session with my kids and I can't tell you what a difference it has made. Not only are they both getting A's in math but the stress level for them as well as myself (because I can't help) has made life so much easier!!!
