Perspective

It is my pleasure to write this recommendation on behalf of Alexander Atallah, a student in my Pre-IB Biology class at Fairview High School for the 2006-07 school year. I have been impressed with Alexander's enthusiasm and passion for science as well as his intelligence and positive attitude. Alexander has mastered the complex content presented in biology and other courses at Fairview, showing a maturity that is well-beyond his grade level. He is a leader in my class and has the unique ability to clearly explain difficult topics to others in a kind and caring manner. Alexander is one of the top students I have taught in my career and I highly recommend him as a tutor for any subject your child needs assistance with.

I highly recommend Alexander as a tutor in a wide variety of subjects. He is an exceptional overall student, and has a strong knowledge of Spanish. Alexander is reliable, on-time, and responsible. He works with the teacher to determine the needs of the student, and then gives specific, individualized attention to those areas. He has a natural ability to teach in a way that balances direct instruction with guiding the student to his/her own learning through questioning, praise, and encouragement. I am confident that any student would benefit from working with Alexander!

During the 2006/2007 school year Alexander Atallah volunteered as a tutor in our Student Achievement Center. He was a new freshman, yet he became one of our top tutors. His abilities as a teacher are exceptional and far-reaching. From Spanish and English to science and mathematics, his maturity and intellect far surpass his chronological age. It is without reservation that I support Alexander's academic endeavors, whatever they may be.
