A 16-year-old Bronx teen has taken the world of TikTok by storm, not for the reasons you might assume. While all of us are trying to get by, Alexis Loveraz is surfing by, and helping people along the way. Simply put, he’s making the new generation proud by turning himself into the “TikTok Tutor”.
Loveraz is from Harlem Prep High School and aces his math exams with an average of 4.0. He recently joined TikTok to tutor other students on chemistry, geometry, algebra, and even the SATs. With his hard work, he earned a following of 660,000 and counting.

The COVID-19 pandemic has tarnished our normal way of living. All the sectors have been affected, including the education sector. At a time like this, the TikTok tutor has become a sigh of relief to all the struggling students.
In an interview with CBS2, Loveraz said that helping other students was his way of giving back, and he was shocked to go viral at this rate. He further added that his content is being watched not just by citizens of the U.S, but also Australia, Canada, Singapore, and the Philippines.
