Award-Winning Economics Tutors in Nashville, TN

Hi! I'm Mathias and I'm a Junior at Vanderbilt University. My academic interests range from Siberian literature to neuroscience, theoretical physics, and public speaking. I spend most of my free time getting to know people and rowing. I currently hope to go to grad school for Neuroscience and work in research and teaching because I love learning and sharing knowledge with others.

I have been tutoring for seven years and have worked with students ranging from six to eighteen years of age. I am committed to helping students reach their full potential.

...draw, dabble in photography / videography, and work professionally as a recording artist/songwriter. I am a "traveler": I've spent time in Tanzania and Uganda, lived in Vienna, Austria, and walked 1,600+ miles down the east coast from Maine > Atlanta > and back to Nashville. I've been given a lot of love and opportunities and they've granted me with an insatiable passion for life and an undying belief in the people I meet. Thank you...

...identify the way in which my students learn best and instruct them in a way that is complimentary to their primary instruction. I have a diverse educational background and am currently completing my JD/MBA. Prior to coming to Emory for Grad School, I graduated in 3 years from the University of Central Florida. While I enjoy learning now, that wasn't always the case and I am very sympathetic to students who find some subjects to...

...challenge of improving my abilities and techniques. I get a great sense of satisfaction in helping those I tutor improve their grades, test scores, and overall understanding of the subjects I am teaching them. Not only do I focus on the subject matter being taught, but I also focus on helping students develop the study skills and habits that are imperative to success later in their academic careers. Through my four years of tutoring, I...

I'm pursuing a double major in Mathematics and English at Vanderbilt University. I have been tutoring math since High School and have native proficiency in Mandarin Chinese. I am dedicated to helping students explore the study methods that will fit their individual needs.

...compete in horsemanship competitions, and I am an avid guitar player. I am also very passionate about traveling. My favorite part of tutoring is seeing my students setting up goals and being able to accomplish them. If I had to pick my favorite subjects to tutor they would be U.S.History and U.S. government. So much in fact, that I read books about these subjects just for pleasure. Nonetheless, I am very proficient in all the...

...on my own. What I found out was that having someone else to talk over materials made me feel not only more confident, but I also had a lot more fun learning. I wish to impart the same type of feelings towards my clients. Tutoring does not have to be a last resort when you are backed up against a wall. Tutoring is a great way to supplement your learning and get ahead.

I am currently doing a PhD in Economics from Vanderbilt University, and have a lot of experience teaching economics and math. I also have a master's degree in Public Policy from the University of Maryland. I live in Nashville with my family. When I'm not studying, I enjoy swimming, reading, chess, skating and chilling.... I try to explain the concept to the student in a way that makes sense so the student really 'understands' as opposed to memorize something temporarily. I am good at explaining concepts in simple English and using everyday examples. At the same time, I can also handle difficult math if you need higher-level help. I do a pretty good job of talking to students at the level they are comfortable with. I try to go slow enough that you understand the material, but not so slow that I waste your time. I have a strong grasp on all areas of economics and math, but my favorite are microeconomics and game theory.

...I have tutored in just about all academic areas but my favorite is math and just about anything to do with numbers. My teaching philosophy is that the teacher serves as a guide while learning is primarily the work of the student. I take the tutoring approach of starting with the students strengths and building on them in order to apply them to their weaknesses. Outside of academia, I enjoy music, sports and pop culture.

...my J.D. from the University of Arizona in May 2015. I graduated summa cum laude and was able to secure a judicial clerkship with the Arizona Supreme Court. A large part of my success academically has been the product of great tutors and mentors along the way, so I am excited about the opportunity to tutor in a broad range of subjects. When I'm not working, I'm busy traveling and watching sports. I'm also a...

...age groups in an effort to not only increase and success but to also foster a life-long love of learning! One of my favorite things is demonstrating to someone that they can learn most any subject simply by using the things that they already have around them, that they honestly know more about the subject than they realize. I have earned undergraduate degrees in Counseling and Finance from Middle Tennessee State University as well as...

...learn. I began as a freshman in high school, by teaching ESL classes to students as young as first grade, to adults in their thirties and forties. In college, I began taking on the challenge of tutoring student athletes. Currently, I am involved in a volunteer program where I am tutoring and mentoring middle and high school students in the Waco area. I have always loved the challenge of helping a student overcome their obstacles,...

...choices and revelations about oneself are coming quicker than they ever have before, all the while most students have not really discovered their own learning style. This creates an environment where it is very easy for the student to get turned off on a subject forever because of a bad teacher. I not only want to help the student understand the subject at hand, but also uncover some realities about her learning style that she...

...of it in the same way as I do. If I can help to produce that in some way, I will be satisfied. I think that education and rigorous, critical, analytical thinking are of the utmost importance in our day and age. I desire to encourage these things. In my spare time, I enjoy reading books on all kinds of subjects, playing and listening to music, and spending time with people from other cultures/countries.

I believe learning should be exciting! I want to help students understand the material and develop a genuine interest in education through engaging tutoring sessions.

Hi! My name is Rachel, a pre-med oboe performance major at Vanderbilt University from Cleveland, Ohio. In addition to science and music, I love history and politics, am reading and writing constantly, and started the mathletes team at my high school. Whatever you need, I'll be here for you!

...University this fall for my Ph.D. training in cognitive psychology. In the meantime, I would like to get more tutoring experiences before I leave Nashville. I have three years of lab experiences at Vanderbilt and Belmont, and I have been working as a psych/math/stats tutor for two years. Here is a list of things that I can try to help you with: Matlab, R, Java SPSS, Minitab, Excel ANOVA, t-test, bootstrapping, staircase, correlation regression, etc...

...the country and world since then. I studied economics and international business at Gonzaga University in Washington state, interned in South Africa and Washington D.C., was a Peace Corps volunteer in the Dominican Republic, and won a Fulbright grant to go to Mexico. I am about to begin an MBA program at Vanderbilt University. I recognize how fortunate I've been to have these opportunities, but I also know that they exist for anyone dedicated enough...

One of my strengths is explaining things to students by taking into account their learning style and offering a fresh perspective. I love watching them begin to figure things out and see how enjoyable learning can be!
