ABOUT ALAN
Since the start, I have been known for quality services, exceptional efficiency, and the highest level of professionalism. No matter what you’re looking for, I guarantee to not only meet but exceed your expectations and ensure your full satisfaction.
I've tutored for 5 years now, even holding 21 tutees at one point. I've had nearly 45 tutees over my tutoring career, and each and every one of my students were able to not only grasp school concepts, but also enhance study strategies and test-taking tips to carry into the rest of their education.
I'm up for every job, managing projects with the skill and experience our clients have come to expect. Ultimately, my goal is to have students feel in their element and at home in their studies. Please reach out to learn more!

ENGLISH TUTORING
Always Prepared
Reading and writing is an inescapable chore for many students. I'm here to make it enjoyable: it is crucial for students to get a strong grasp on concepts in writing early on to be able to effectively communicate their ideas to peers, teachers, and ultimately in their careers.
Levels Available:

MATH TUTORING
Attention to Detail
Math is the very language of our universe. Intertwined in the very fabric of daily life, quantitative abilities are pivotal for success in any endeavor, whether academic or career-oriented. I'm able to help you not just work through problems, but think like a mathematician when encountering problems.
Levels Available:

Calculus I-II (AP Calculus AB and BC)
Multivariable Calculus (Calculus III)
Elementary Statistics (AP Statistics)
SCIENCE TUTORING
Expert Service
How do scientists rationalize their discoveries and findings? At its very core, science is a broad field with a key central tenet: a curiosity and motivation to find answers. I specialize in the life sciences: with biology and chemistry central to my focus.
Levels Available:
K-8
General Chemistry I-II (AP Chemistry)
Biology I-II (AP Biology)

FEATURES
What Sets Me Apart
FLEXIBLE SCHEDULING
As a college student, I know what it means to be busy. But I'm able to be extremely flexible to accommodate varying schedules, whether it be you, or your students' schedule that needs accommodation.
PHONE SUPPORT 24/7
Tutoring doesn't just stop at the session! Most tutoring places won't be available to text/call for immediate help outside of a scheduled session, but I am.
COMPETITIVE RATES
I know how expensive tutoring can be. As a victim of exorbitant private tutoring myself, even as a tutee in a 3:1 session for $120 an hour before, I knew my services would never follow this. This is why I set flat rates of $44-59 per hour, depending on the package hours and subjects involved. Please inquire for more details.
"I'm here to teach you how to learn, not just what to learn. I focus on mentoring the student into the overall scholar, not just tutoring in one discipline."

CREDENTIALS
MY ACADEMIC HISTORY
I’m currently a student-athlete (Varsity Football) at Washington University in St. Louis, and double-majoring in Neuroscience and Healthcare Management. Currently, I’m performing at the top of my pre-medical class with a 3.94 GPA (4.0 STEM GPA), and working with the head of neurosurgery at the WashU medical school and Barnes-Jewish Hospital in Alzheimer’s research. Extremely successful throughout high school, my high school career was capstoned by being named one of the top 300 high-school scientists in the US.
