Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Dear Future Client, Thank you in advance for taking the time to learn a bit more about me - your investment in your future, your education, your work, and/or your personal development is not something I take lightly, and I hope you will find this introduction worthwhile. I am a world traveler with work experience that spans across a broad range of subjects, institutions, platforms and cultures. I proudly earned my BA in Special Education from Michigan State University's College of Education, where I specialized in Deaf Education and prioritized my teaching major of Language Arts, graduating with Honors. Since then, it has been my privilege to work with such companies as The Princeton Review and WyzAnt for many years as an instructor and test prep for the ACT, SAT, GMAT, and GRE, along with essay preparation services for both undergraduate and graduate admissions, here in the US and in the Middle East and India. I have tutored clients at various levels of education in general studies, and have also forayed into the world of elementary education in the inner city, teaching a combined third and fourth grade class one year, and a first grade class of over 30 students the next! Furthermore, I find great joy in editing the personal and professional works of many of my students, friends, and clients, helping them to find beauty in the essence of their expression, as well as to refine the technical aspects of their pieces. I have done this since I myself was in elementary school (a classmate offered me his draft of a fantasy novel to mark up with red pen, and the excitement of such a moment has yet to cease). I am passionate about education as a whole and the English language particularly, detail-oriented in my approach, and quick to customize every session. Please see my website for further ratings and reviews. I am eager to work with you!

Alexandra is my English writing tutor. I moved in California in 2017 from Europe, when I got a promotion. She helps me to edit my writing, correct my sentence structure and vocabulary, minimize my spelling and grammer errors. She help me write better sentences, express my ideas more clearly. Overall, she gave me tremendous confidence in this area. She is a soft-spoken and extremely patient, individual with great values. She was always on time and very flexible when I had to work longer hours. I am extremely grateful I found Alexandra as my tutor. I recommend her without reservation. Pls do not hesitate to reach out with any question

Amazing GMAT prep! I was able to take my GMAT score from a 460 to a 540 in less than a few months. Alexandra was incredibly helpful, dedicated and responsive. I strongly recommend Alexandra for anyone needing a tutor. She is great!

Working with Alex on a short story of mine was a pleasure. She is both thoughtful and detail-oriented, with a great balance of critique and encouragement. She will emphasize the positives in your work and challenge you to make it the best it can be.

We hired Alexandra as a math tutor for our 6th grader. He was transitioning from a private school to a public school and we felt like his math education to that point was sub-par. Alexander was able to assist him in bringing his math skills to a level that was over and above what he needed to succeed in 7th grade. She was kind and professional and used a variety of teaching skills and modalities to instill confidence in our shy and tentative son. I would highly recommend Alexandra for any tutoring or teaching position.

Thanks for your review, Ms. Kimberly! I really had a lot of fun tutoring B - it was a privilege and a blessing, and I still can't believe he's moving a tassel this year!
