About Alberto

I hold a PhD from Stanford University and a bachelor's degree from Yale University. I am a lecturer at Stanford, where I design and teach interdisciplinary undergraduate courses exploring how technology shapes our minds, behaviors, and experience of the world.

I have also spent years working as a private tutor with elementary, middle, and high school students. My expertise includes academic writing, research, critical thinking, effective study strategies, and academic coaching.

My professional background combines teaching, academic research, and human-centered design. As a researcher and product designer, I have spent more than a decade studying how people think, learn, behave, and interact with technology. This work informs my approach to education and my interest in helping students develop greater agency, autonomy, and confidence in their abilities.

I believe effective teaching begins with understanding the individual learner. Every student brings different strengths, challenges, interests, and goals, and I enjoy helping students discover approaches to learning that work for them.

My approach to tutoring goes beyond helping students improve their grades or complete assignments. I aim to help students become more capable, confident, and independent learners by developing the knowledge, skills, and strategies they need to succeed academically.

I tailor each lesson to the student's strengths, challenges, and goals. Depending on their needs, our work may focus on academic writing, reading comprehension, critical thinking, research, studying, test preparation, or managing complex assignments. I also help students develop practical skills in planning, organization, time management, and using AI effectively as a tool to enhance learning rather than replace independent thinking.

My teaching emphasizes active engagement, deliberate practice, and continuous feedback. A typical session begins by identifying a clear objective, followed by guided instruction and hands-on practice. We conclude by reviewing progress, addressing remaining challenges, and identifying next steps.

I offer a complimentary 30-minute initial consultation to get to know each student, understand their strengths, challenges, and academic goals, and identify opportunities for improvement. Together, we'll discuss how they currently approach learning and develop a personalized plan to help them become more effective, confident, and independent learners.

I work with elementary, middle, and high school students, as well as college students and adult learners. I have experience supporting students with diverse learning needs, including neurodivergent students, academically advanced learners, and students who struggle with executive-function skills.

Above all, my goal is not simply to help students succeed on their next assignment or exam, but to equip them with the skills and strategies to succeed independently over time.

All lessons are conducted online, and I work with students nationwide.
