Hi, my name is Alexandra. As an educator, I am interested in helping my students learn how to learn successfully with me, and eventually, on their own. It is said that if you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, but if you teach him how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.The most important information that I can provide is the type that helps students process information successfully on their own. The most important skills that I can teach also allow students to acquire new knowledge on their own.
Achieving your academic goals takes work.
There is no “magic bullet”, no magic funnel hat that transfers knowledge from my brain to that of a student. Any student’s success is entirely predicated on his or her willingness to work, to tolerate tedium, and to do things that he or she would rather not do at inconvenient times. My students who have understood this typically achieve their educational goals. Some have gone from Ds and Fs to As and Bs. Some have been accepted to top universities including Stanford, Berkeley, Cal Poly and Harvard.
For customized study programs, contact me today.
I only take on students who are committed to doing the work required to succeed scholastically. If you, as the parent and/or the student, are ready to be serious about education, I invite you to explore the possibilities of learning with me — please call 503.524.9454 or email me at rankertutor@att.net
