Alex

Certified Tutor

I recently graduated from Wheeler High School's Center of Advanced Studies for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. Right now, I am a business student at Georgia Tech pursuing a concentration in finance. Outside of class, I am in Georgia Tech's Symphony Orchestra and Investments Committee. In my free-time, I enjoy weight lifting and playing guitar.

The main subjects I tutor include reading, writing, and economics. This includes PSAT reading and both AP Econ exams. My favorite subjects to tutor are microeconomics and macroeconomics. I love teaching microeconomics to show students how economic theories are so integral to our daily actions, even without us thinking about it. Macroeconomics is also great to teach, since it gives students an important foundation in finance and international business. I would describe my teaching style as one that likes to reinforce learning through repetition and the use of real-world examples. I firmly believe a student will not value a lesson unless he or she can see why it's important after they leave school. If this sounds like you, I think we'll have a great time working together!
