About Alexander
Hello! :)
My name is Alexander, and I am a high school freshman (9th grade) with a 4.0 GPA and I am in honors/advanced classes in which I've patiently and effectively helped peers understand confusing concepts!
My hobbies/interests consist of hiking, video games, language learning, history, and geography.
I am passionate about learning languages, so I have dedicated the past two years to learning foreign languages, and I am currently learning French, Italian, and Japanese.
Ever since I first helped students at my school with their French homework, I have found that teaching can benefit people for their entire lives, so I hope to be an amazing tutor for students and leave them with the basics that support the foundation of their lifelong journey of learning/using Italian!
I hope to provide an incredible tutoring experience and atmosphere to students!

As a high school freshman (currently A2/B1 in Italian) who dedicates their free time to studying languages, I can provide a relatable, patient, and encouraging atmosphere to children who seek to learn the beautiful language that is Italian!
Typical Lesson Plan:
A typical lesson will be 30 minutes, since, from my personal experiences as a high school freshman, and especially with children, a high-energy, encouraging 30-minute lesson works much better than a full one-hour lesson.
Minutes 0-5: a warm-up; a quick review of what we learned to refresh your memory and make sure you don't forget what you learned. E.g. recalling how to pronounce the Italian "ci" or "ce" sounds if that's what we learned last lesson.
Minutes 5-20: a "deep dive"; we will focus on one specific topic. E.g. how to say what your favorite foods are.
Minutes 20-30: "review and real-world practice"; we will review what we learned, or apply what we've learned in this lesson to real-world usage. E.g. a game where I name a letter and you try to think of a food that starts with that letter in Italian.
For the free, 30-minute introductory lesson, I recommend having the student with their parent if possible to ensure that I can have optimal personalization for students! :)
What sets me apart as a tutor:
As a high school freshman who studies languages independently, I can provide a more encouraging, patient, understanding, and personalized atmosphere for children than a typical classroom can.
Who my lessons are for:
My lessons specialize in INTRODUCTORY & BASIC Italian for children (A0/A1/A2), where we learn the basics of Italian and some very important words and phrases! E.g. basic phrases, how to read, write, and pronounce words/letters, basic speaking/listening practice, useful vocabulary, etc.
I can also provide homework help, so don't hesitate to ask if your student has homework and needs assistance!
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
As a fellow student in Alexander's French class, he remains patient even if you don't understand something, no matter how simple, and remains encouraging and understanding throughout his explanations. He's definitely very smart, and the best learning experience I've probably had with him is him teaching me how to pronounce French words, because those nasal sounds are really challenging at first, and our teacher never really taught us students how to pronounce words, anyways, so I'm grateful that Alexander was there to teach me, or else I never would've gotten to French II!
I am Alexander's friend who attends the same high school as him, and I am deeply into foreign languages just like he is. He has personally helped me learn languages like Japanese by patiently explaining grammar and concepts to me when I did not understand. He has even recommended me methods and apps that I still use to this day for my Japanese learning! He is a very patient and understanding tutor, and he helped me understand a grammar concept even though the explanation took 20 minutes for something that should've been simple, but he never got irritated or gave up on teaching me that specific concept! Highly recommend!
