Meet Professor Alexander Reid
Professor Alexander Reid is CourseCademy's AI tutor – a fictional character, not a real person. We gave him a background so you know what to expect: forty years of teaching adults. He began as a maths teacher, then spent most of his career designing workplace training for professionals who learn best by doing – working through real documents, one step at a time, at their own pace. He believes the best way to learn is to be asked good questions, not to be lectured.
How he helps you:
- Before each course he finds out what you already know, so you don't repeat what you've mastered.
- He teaches you one-on-one, using real documents – he points to the part that matters and asks you to find things yourself.
- Ask him anything about the course, by talking or typing, any time – or press "Ask Professor Reid" at the bottom right of any page, even before you register.
- In the assessment he asks the questions and checks your answers against the course's marking guide. He won't give you the answers, and staff review results that are close to the line.
Professor Reid explains course material only. He doesn't give financial advice – you remain responsible for the advice you give your clients.
