Ever since bringing refugee children up to and beyond grade-level mathematics while tutoring in the mid-2000s, I have always been motivated by a spirit of service to community, society, and humanity at large. Teaching and tutoring is one small but essential part of that ethos.

Aarya
Algebra Tutor • +4 Subjects
Hi! I recently graduated with Highest Honors from Adali E. Stevenson High School and am currently work to obtain my Bachelors in Computer Science at Purdue University. I have tutored a variety of students ranging from elementary to High School seniors. I have taught subjects from basic english and math concepts to standardized testing such as the SAT. I even have experience helping on topics such as AP CS. My favorite subject to tutor is english as it is able to capture one's thoughts and emotions in the smallest of phrases . My teaching philosophy revolves around legos. I like to take things one brick at a time without looking at the final picture so that way it doesn't scare us off. Slow and steady always wins the race! Outside class, I love to play piano, roller skate, go on drives with my friends and occasionally video game. I cant wait to meet you and become friends!

ACT English Tutor • +34 Subjects
Knowledge is imperative for not only personal, but also social and economic growth. As a tutor, I would like to disseminate this knowledge and teach students the valuable skills needed to independently obtain knowledge, create concepts, and build new ideas on those fundamental concepts. I graduated as a University Scholar and pre-med student from New York University with a major in Psychology and minors in Physics, Molecular and Cell Biology, and Chemistry. Having excelled in Psychology and its research, I am a member of the International Honor Society in Psychology; hence, I am well qualified to teach this subject. Because I am passionate about reading and writing, both creatively and academically, I have excelled in the Critical Reading and Writing sections of the PSAT, SAT, ACT, and MCAT and have often tutored peers facing difficulties in these areas. Although I struggled with Physics in high school, I approached it differently at NYU, was extremely intrigued by it, and decided to pursue a minor in it.This is the same kind of change I would like to bring about in my students through effective communication and personalized learning styles. There is no universal way to study, and understanding how a student learns new a concept is imperative to obtaining success in any field. I have taught young children, high school students, and college students topics like algebra, dance, and health education. Each age group positively responds to a different style of teaching, motivation, and communication; being adaptable and open to these changes is my forte. My teaching style often revolves around developing self-motivation, planning schedules, and understanding students' short-term and long-term goals. Because I recently graduated, I understand the stress students have managing their busy schedules, extracurricular activities, and studying for standardized exams, all while maintaining a solid GPA. Being flexible, compassionate, and patient is very important when teaching and I believe that an amalgamation of these traits, my teaching experience, and subject knowledge make me a well-rounded and effective tutor.

I love math. Nothing makes me happier than having the opportunity to share my passion with others. However, math wasn't always my best subject. In my opinion, this makes it easier for me to relate to students who are having trouble in this area. In high school and college, I tutored middle school math through Mu Alpha Theta. I also helped many of my peers in their math courses ranging from Algebra 1 to Calculus.

Frequently Asked Questions
Regional Economics requires students to synthesize concepts from multiple disciplines—geography, politics, history, and economics—to understand how different areas develop differently. Students often struggle with analyzing spatial data and interpreting maps or regional statistics, as well as connecting abstract economic theories to real-world regional disparities. Many find it challenging to balance macro-level concepts (like comparative advantage and trade patterns) with micro-level considerations (like local labor markets and resource distribution). Personalized tutoring helps students build confidence in data interpretation and develop frameworks for connecting theory to regional case studies.
Expert tutors in Regional Economics combine strong knowledge of economic theory with the ability to illustrate concepts through real-world regional examples. They excel at breaking down complex topics like agglomeration economies, regional inequality, and trade dynamics into digestible pieces. Great Regional Economics tutors are skilled at helping students read and interpret maps, datasets, and demographic information, and they know how to connect abstract models to concrete case studies—whether analyzing why Silicon Valley became a tech hub or how trade agreements affect specific regions. They adapt their teaching style to each student's learning preferences, whether that's visual, analytical, or discussion-based.
Regional Economics is usually offered as an upper-level undergraduate or graduate elective in economics or geography programs. Introductory courses focus on foundational concepts like comparative advantage, specialization, and how geography influences economic activity. Intermediate courses dive deeper into topics like regional growth models, agglomeration effects, and the spatial structure of economies. Advanced courses often emphasize applied research methods, allowing students to conduct their own regional analyses using real economic data. Tutors with experience across these levels can help you understand where concepts fit within the broader field and develop skills applicable to research projects, case study papers, and economic analysis assignments.
In a classroom setting, Regional Economics instruction often moves quickly through broad concepts without time to address individual gaps in understanding. Personalized tutoring lets you work at your own pace, revisit challenging topics like regional data interpretation or model-building, and connect theory to regions or cases that interest you personally. A tutor can customize examples to match your major or career interests—whether that's urban development, international trade, or regional policy—making abstract concepts more relevant and memorable. You'll also get immediate feedback on problem-solving approaches and can ask questions without concern, which research on learning science shows significantly improves comprehension and retention of complex material.
With focused tutoring, students typically see improvements in their ability to analyze regional data, interpret economic maps and statistics, and apply economic models to real-world scenarios. You can expect to strengthen your performance on problem sets that involve spatial analysis or data interpretation, improve your grades on regional case study papers or exams, and develop confidence in discussing complex topics like regional inequality or trade patterns. Many students also become more efficient at synthesizing information from multiple sources—textbooks, economic reports, geographic data—into cohesive arguments. Success looks different for each student, but common outcomes include higher grades on assignments, deeper understanding of core concepts, and the ability to approach novel regional economics problems independently.
A solid foundation in microeconomics and macroeconomics is essential, as Regional Economics builds on core concepts like supply and demand, comparative advantage, and factors affecting economic growth. Basic statistics and data literacy are valuable, since the field involves interpreting datasets and understanding economic indicators. Geography knowledge—understanding maps, regions, and how physical location affects commerce—helps tremendously. However, if your economics or geography background feels shaky, a tutor can help you review foundational concepts before diving into regional-specific material. Many tutors specialize in helping students bridge knowledge gaps while simultaneously building confidence in the subject matter itself.
Regional Economics informs decisions across government, business, and policy work. Understanding regional development patterns is crucial for roles in economic development agencies, urban planning, international trade, and regional policy analysis. Professionals in consulting, real estate development, and corporate strategy use regional economic analysis to identify growth opportunities and assess market viability. The field also connects to current issues like regional inequality, the future of cities, and how trade agreements affect different areas. Tutoring that emphasizes real-world applications—analyzing actual regional case studies or working with real economic datasets—helps you build practical skills employers value and deepens your understanding of why regional economic patterns matter.
