About Alexander

Bio

Hi! My name is Alex and I'm a second-year PhD student in Economics here at West Virginia University. I was granted a Bachelor's of Science in Economics with a Math Minor from West Chester University of Pennsylvania in 2018. Ever since the beginning of my college career, I've had the explicit goal of getting a PhD in Economics and becoming a college professor. I graduated with a 3.96 GPA in my major courses, and am just as passionate about tutoring math as I am about economics.

Hi! My name is Alex and I'm a second-year PhD student in Economics here at West Virginia University. I was granted a Bachelor's of Science in Economics with a Math Minor from West Chester University of Pennsylvania in 2018. Ever since the beginning of my college career, I've had the explicit goal of getting a PhD in Economics and becoming a college professor. I graduated with a 3.96 GPA in my major courses, and am just as passionate about tutoring math as I am about economics.

Helping students understand concepts fundamentally and improve their grades is the most rewarding feeling in the world. I love being able to use my knowledge to make people's lives easier, and to help them get more out of their education. I make sure no student, no matter how much trouble they're having grasping the material, feels judged or inadequate; I know that everyone learns at a different pace and I always enjoy tutoring no matter the comprehension level of the student.

I have over three years of professional tutoring experience, two of which were spent at the Learning Assistance and Resource Center of West Chester University. There, I went through three levels of College Reading and Learning Association Certification, and have been a "Certified Master Tutor" since December of 2017. I have over a thousand hours of tutoring experience, most of which is professional and some of which is freelance. I've tutored learners as young as 12 and as old as 40, and have even lectured high-level economics courses for college juniors and seniors.

Currently, as part of my fellowship in the PhD program, I am a teaching assistant for undergraduate economics courses, and work as a research assistant to a professor in the department.

Feel free to contact me with any questions and I will do my best to get back to you within 24 hours!

Expert tutor of Economics

He explained very clearly how to solve problems relating to IS/LM curves. We also started a solow model problem! It helped me learn a lot in only an hour that I didn't learn all semester!

Haji, 2 lessons with Alexander

Great tutor!

Helped me understand and solve Microeconomics practice problems. Though difficult, he simplified them and helped me understand the economic intuition and math behind each. Couldn't be happier!

Lexi, 1 lesson with Alexander

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Alexander was helping me to proofread my economic paper. He was clearly explaining and commenting on my paper which was a helpful guide. I was in the rush to finish up my paper because of the deadline. Luckily, I found him and he helped me edit it.

Camtu, 1 lesson with Alexander

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

Alexander helped with my statistics assignment and he was very helpful. I definitely recommend him. I achieved the goal that I set prior to this tutoring.

Jae, 3 lessons with Alexander

Very patient.

I’ve been struggling with micro-economics but he’s made it pretty clear to me and I definitely understand a lot more than I did before in just one lesson.

Michael, 5 lessons with Alexander

Knowledgeable and Fast

Alex taught me more about economics in a 1 hour session than I was trying to learn on my own in eight hours. He's patient and understanding. Quick responses to questions and scheduling adjustments! Definitely recommend!

Tianna, 25 lessons with Alexander

Great tutor

Alexander took his time explaining in detail all of my questions. He drew charts and graphs to better explain the content. He is very patient and thorough, I will definitely use him again.

Rifka, 1 lesson with Alexander

Great teacher

He explained the material very clearly. 10/10 would recommend. Everything clicked in just a very short period of time.
