"What sets me apart? I was homeschooled until college, and went on to graduate Summa Cum Laude from Duquesne University.

I'm Alex, a researcher of Cardiac Mechanics at Carnegie Mellon University. I earned my Bachelor's of Science in Biomedical Engineering with a Duel Degree in Mathematics. But before that, I was a homeschooled student through elementary school and highschool. Every subject, every assignment, every exam, I was responsible for mastering the material before sending it to Seton Home Study School for grading. I learned how to apply myself to every subject. From this training, I earned admittance into the Honor's College at Duquesne, and later earned my Master's in Biomedical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University. I taught myself the essential skills to succeed in school, and I am confident that I can teach you any subject as well.

Toward the end of my Sophomore year, I decided to pursue my interest in Mathematics and teaching, joining the Mathematics Department as a full-time tutor. Through the next two years, I served Duquesne's community as a tutor both in person and online, and helped many students through the years. Now that I have graduated from Carnegie Mellon University, I am determined to bring my skills as a tutor to a larger community. I will give each student the resources and study tactics necessary to learn independently as I once did, and apply those skills to every level of their studies. You can excel, you simply need the right help to identify and overcome each challenge. My goal is to help you discover how you best understand the material.

I am friendly, outgoing, and excited to integrate new learning techniques into my tutoring style to best fit every student's needs. Reach out at any time to talk or schedule a lesson, and I'll do my best to respond as soon as possible!" less...
