Alexander: Halifax tutor

Certified Tutor

As a Mathematics major at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, I am passionate about making STEM subjects engaging and accessible. With experience teaching AP Calculus, AP Physics, and coding to younger students, I strive to create a supportive learning environment where students feel empowered to explore complex concepts. My teaching philosophy centers on adapting my approach to meet individual learning needs, using analogies and visual aids to clarify difficult topics. I am particularly motivated to inspire high school students, as I understand the challenges they face in mastering these subjects. My goal is to transform the perception of math and science from daunting disciplines into exciting fields of discovery. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy participating in my robotics club and pursuing personal projects, which further fuel my enthusiasm for engineering and innovation.
