Axel K
When my daughter faced some difficulties during her A level history course, we decided that she needs some help. I found Alex on one of the online tutoring platforms. We took a couple of lessons and my daughter’s tests results improved so much. But of the challenges was that we are from different language backgrounds. I didn’t believe it was possible to find someone who can explain the subject for a kid not speaking English language. Surprisingly it all worked perfectly! Alex is extremely helpful and supportive tutor. He always sends additional materials to study and the lesson obviously goes far beyond 1 hour online on the platform. I definitely can recommend Alex as a tutor with high attitude to a subject, reliable person and love to what he is doing!!!
