Hi! I’m Alexa, and I’m a graduate of Harvard University, where I studied economics and political science, graduating Summa Cum Laude after writing a thesis on US Political History. Currently, I’m a current Master’s Student at Oxford, where I’m studying US History.

I developed a love for teaching in 2017 as the founder and director of a volunteer, peer-to-peer math tutoring service across my school district. While at Harvard, I created a freshman pre-orientation program called the “Leadership Institute”. This is a week-long leadership course that helps transition incoming students to the demands of undergraduate life.

The oldest child (of four) in my family, I had to navigate the college admissions process by myself. I am passionate about easing this burden for families with several years of experience in test prep tutoring, and I’m able to help your student prep for the SAT, ACT, ISEE, and SSAT. I also have plenty of experience with subject matter tutoring of all kinds.

When I’m not busy being a huge nerd, you can find me hiking, running, or playing soccer.
