Hello! My name is Alexandra, and I’m a student at Johns Hopkins University and the Peabody Institute. As both a full-time student and musician, I bring an interdisciplinary approach to English language and literature tutoring that connects creativity with academic excellence.
I earned 5s on both AP English Language and AP English Literature, and I love helping students refine their writing skills, craft standout college essays, and strengthen their reading and analysis abilities. My teaching emphasizes what top performance requires—analytical precision, expressive clarity, and a unique personal voice.
My lessons combine structured academic preparation with creativity inspired by my musical background. I play violin, flute, and piano, and I compose music, which brings a sense of rhythm, flow, and imagination into every session.
As a native English speaker, I help learners of all levels. Whether you’re just beginning your English journey or preparing for exams and college applications. Develop confidence, refine expression, and find joy in mastering the English language.
If you’re looking for a supportive and engaging tutor to help you excel in English writing, literature, or test preparation, I’d love to help you reach your full potential.

I had a very positive experience refining my English skills with Alex as my tutor. I was in the process of applying for colleges and Alex helped me through every step of the way with my college essays. She was patient and always encouraged different perspectives in my writing. In my short time with her as my tutor, I can definitely see a difference in my writing that extends beyond my college essays.
