Alex’s AP Exams Qualifications

Coaches professionally

My favorite AP tests are the Micro and Macro. I have been teaching this combination of tests since 2020. Having trained as an economist and attained my Master's in Economics from USC, I believe knowledge of economics is vital to every citizen-consumer; and being a proponent of this subject makes me an especially passionate tutor in this subject. I promise to break down the material visually with real life examples that will make this often dry topic come alive. I've studied most of the recent practice exams, multiple choice and free response, so I can narrow down which knowledge is most essential, and how to strategically approach any question.

About Alex

I was trained as an economist; however, after a year of tutoring, I opted out of pursuing a PhD at Claremont Graduate University. The transmission of knowledge to the next generation in a limpid, digestible manner became paramount to me over the course of 8+ years of teaching and tutoring students of all ages and learning persuasions. Whatever your academic dream may be, I know I can help.

Why do I coach?

I've had three mentors who have coached me: Jose, at UCLA, in the foreign exchange market; Bill, at the MOT, in historiography; and Julie, at Kaplan, in customer service. Without their input, guidance and unwavering challenge, I would not have the character that I have today. I have synthesized their methods and approaches to mentoring and put them into action with all my clients, inculcating systemic approaches, disciplined thinking, conscientiousness and courtesy, and endurance.
