Alix was my tutor for organic chemistry II - junior year, collegiate level. I was starting out on a bad foot studying for the class, focusing my attention on concepts that were minute while missing the overall goal(s) of the section. I ended up earning a 72% on my first test. After meeting with Alix, she was able to show me how to solve problems in a multitude of ways while explaining the reasons surrounding the problem. My second test I earned a 92% - my third test I earned a 93% - my final exam I earned a 96% (Not Joking!). In conclusion, Alix is a wonderful tutor who gave me the tools I needed to succeed in the class. I would recommend her to anyone without a doubt in my mind or a moment of hesitation. THANK YOU!!!!

Alix has definitely made a very positive change in my daughter's grades and attitude toward algebra. Her stress level has decreased significantly with Alix's help on her homework and improving her understanding of how to address her homework. She has more than been a great help and I would highly suggest her for the upper level algebra. May 7, 2014: Alix has worked with my daughter this whole school term and has been a great help. My daughter had told me how calm Alix is when helping, which I know makes a huge difference when young adults get frustrated. I would and have highly recommended her as a tutor. Also WyzAnt makes it extremely easy.

My son has worked with Alix weekly during his last semester in high school Pre-Calculus & Trigonometry. He has taken four tests in this time and earned no less than a 92% on these tests. The weekly visits with Alix have paved the way to an excellent understanding of the subject matter. Alix, thanks for all your help, he earned an "A"!!

Alix was an incredible help to our son. He was needing additional time and practice to master concepts in math and had lost his confidence. Alix was patient and encouraging and always helped him feel successful. She was able to help him master math concepts he didn't have a firm hold on and she also taught math material for the upcoming week so that he felt confident in the classroom when new material was presented. Alix was a great listener and observer and therefore was able to provide our son with exactly what he needed during each tutoring session.

Alix has definitely been a benefit to my son. He is a high school freshman and Algebra has been a struggle. She is very patient and explains things in a manner that is easy for him to understand.

I can't tell you how fortunate we feel to have found Alix. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable, she is incredibly kind, encouraging and inspiring. My daughters have gained so much simply by knowing Alix. She not only teaches them the technical aspects of math and science, she makes it fun and exciting. These are hugely important life skills that will benefit them in everything they do. Thank you Alix!

Alix is awesome. She is always on time and flexible when the schedule needs to be changed. She is knowledgeable about the subjects we need her for and she has great study habit ideas. She is great about communicating and setting up future tutor sessions. I am very pleased with the program and the ease of payments.
Haley O. from Belton, MO
Alix and I had a great session, I went to Kansas City for the weekend and found her on the site and we immediately set something up. Not only was she extremely helpful, but she taught me in a way where I could catch onto the concepts quickly and we could keep moving through the material. She was very on top of things and made sure I was understanding things, Not doing the work for me, but making up problems for me to figure out. She was an awesome help! She comes highly recommended and wished she lived in Denver!

I like that she sticks to the topics and makes good use of the time. She has helped me grasp concepts in a short amount of time which is very helpful when taking courses in the summer!
Taylor B. from Fort Myers, FL
Alix was able to help me not only pass my college General Chemistry 1 class, but excel in it! With her help I was able to get A's on all of my exams with the confidence that I actually understood the material. She is incredibly patient and clearly knowledgeable about the subject, as well as understanding of technological difficulties and moves at your pace. It doesn't matter what university you go to or the curriculum, Alix will definitely be able to help!

I have had one college algebra session with Alix. She was very helpful! Having a tutor to increase confidence is very important to me. Alix's knowledge of the material really helped me to learn a lot in the one hour we spent together. She works quickly!
Michele H. from Louisburg, KS
I can't say enough good things about Alix. Just wish she taught at my child's school. Any student that comes in contact with Alix will be better for just knowing her.
Karin S. from Overland Park, KS
Alix helps my teens with general chemistry as well as chemistry for college credit. She discusses the matter in very simple terms so it's easier for my kids to comprehend. She also help with their different advanced math classes. She's perfect.

We worked on some organic chemistry review materials. Topics reviewed include drawing isomers, IUPAC naming of alkene compounds, and related concepts and terminology. Alix has been a big help for me since starting college.
