About Alex

Bio

Having graduated with a 3.95 GPA degree in Applied Mathematics at the Oregon Institute of Technology in 2018, I'm more than happy to try and help people with math. As someone who loves tutoring and finds it a very rewarding task, I have applied and been accepted into a Masters degree program in Math Education.

My experience includes helping hundreds of students with: Algebra 1, Algebra 2, PreAlgebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, PreCalculus and Calculus in one-on-one and group sessions.

People struggle with math and that's mostly because, truthfully, math is difficult. It's a challenging subject for almost everyone and sometimes you just need a little help to get you over a hurdle that is blocking your understanding.

Some teachers and textbooks seem to want to hide the answers from students in the hope the student will discover the solution without any extra help. Sadly, in my experience, this approach often fails even if the student only needs very minor assistance to get going and it definitely fails if the student doesn't even know where to begin.

Math is seldom taught well in the typical classroom; there's rarely any interest in or excitement for the subject and the deeper meanings are often overlooked. It ends up being taught as a big game of memorization and 'tricks' to 'get the right answer.' Math is so much more than memorization and so I try to tutor in such a way as to gain a strong foundational understanding and build from there, based on the needs, desires, abilities and interests of the student. I'll answer any questions you have as best I can and I'll even go through every part of every step of every problem, if that will help. No detail is too small to me and, if you've got a question, you deserve an answer.

Please feel free to contact me at any time.

Algebra 1,

Algebra 1

Algebra is the class where math starts to look at some more complicated topics. It is very important to have a solid foundation in algebra, as math is a cumulative topic. If you have any questions with any problems, or want to cover any topics, don't be afraid to ask! I'll spend as much time as you need until you feel you understand the topic.
Algebra 2,

Algebra 2

Algebra 2 is the subject I've tutored the most in, so I'm extremely comfortable and knowledgeable with the types of questions that teachers ask of their students. Having a good foundation in Algebra will go a very long way, even in calculus, so don't be afraid to ask if you need help!
Calculus,

Calculus

Calculus is the first math class where people know it's reputation: it's a difficult topic but ultimately allows us to answer some amazing questions and even helped us get to the moon! I have tutored calculus students for hundreds of hours, and I can help with any concepts you might be having with this topic. It's an important class, so don't be afraid to seek out help when things don't make sense to you!
Precalculus

Precalculus

Precalculus is an important class, especially for those going into calculus. I've tutored hundreds of hours in this subject (in addition to tutoring in calculus), so I know where to focus what you'll need to know not just for your tests, but also for any calculus class you end up taking!

There's no doubt that Trig is a difficult class, but I can help you with any tricky questions you're stuck on or concepts you may have difficulty grasping. Oftentimes teachers don't go into the detail and time required to understand the topics, but I'll spend as much time as necessary until you feel comfortable enough to proceed!

Knowledgeable, Encouraging, Organized, and 100% Effective!

Alex is the best tutor we have ever hired. I reached out to Alex several months ago because my son was struggling in his Algebra 2 honors class. He had an in-person tutor (a high school teacher) who had been tutoring him for several years, but he was starting to fail his tests, and his grade had gone from a B to a D. He was lost. My son has been working with Alex for several months now, and he scored a 96% on his last test. When his teacher handed him his test, he told my son he was the "MIS"... the most improved student. My son often tells me how much he enjoys (!!) his lessons with Alex and what an excellent teacher Alex is. He also calls him “a good dude.” :-) Alex is patient, knowledgeable, clear, encouraging, and effective. We are so glad we found him!

Friendly and patient

Before working with Alex, I felt insecure about my math skills and nervous about the SAT. After just a few weeks of tutoring, my confidence improved and my math score increased by more than 100 points on the SAT. I appreciate Alex's use of sketches on the Wyzant board to help me learn in a way that fits my learning style. I'll definitely continue to go to Alex for Trigonometry and Pre-Calculus help!
