Award-Winning Economics Tutors
serving Washington, DC

Sarina's International Health degree required heavy coursework in microeconomics — analyzing how incentive structures shape healthcare markets, how scarcity drives resource allocation, and how policy interventions create unintended economic consequences. That public health lens gives her a distinctive way of teaching concepts like externalities and cost-benefit analysis, grounding them in scenarios students can immediately see mattering. Rated 5.0 by her students.

I am a student at Georgetown University majoring International Politics with minors in Economics and Latin American Studies.

I am a graduate of Cornell University's College of Arts and Sciences. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry with Distinction in 2015. Since graduation, I was a physics/chemistry teacher and soccer coach at a private school in Virginia for a year, where I led the soccer team to an undefeated season. Before teaching and coaching professionally, I was a Teaching Assistant for the Cornell Math and Physics Departments, where I taught many subjects including calculus, mechanics, electromagnetism. Throughout my time at Cornell and as a teacher, I tutored subjects ranging from the SAT to AP Physics and Algebra II, which is where my true talents lie: in small group or one-on-one settings where I can give students the full attention they deserve and tailor my approach specifically to their learning styles. This is why I am now pursuing tutoring as a part-time occupation at Varsity Tutors. I embrace teaching all math and science subjects, especially physics and calculus, at both the college and high school level and will go above and beyond to make sure all of my students succeed, according to their definition of success. In my spare time, I enjoy playing league soccer, basketball, tennis and guitar, and also like to travel and see as much of the world as I can.

Matt's finance degree means he learned economics not as an isolated academic subject but as the engine behind investment decisions, corporate strategy, and market behavior — so when he teaches concepts like elasticity or market structures, he can show students where the theory actually lands. His SAT score of 1530 also signals the kind of sharp analytical reading that economics coursework demands, especially when students need to interpret dense graphs or parse tricky problem setups.

As an economics major at Northwestern, Sarah digs into the same core principles — scarcity, opportunity cost, market equilibrium, elasticity — that introductory students encounter for the first time. She translates abstract models into concrete examples, making supply-and-demand curves and production possibilities frontiers feel intuitive rather than mechanical.

I am currently working in a Bronx Public School as a teaching apprentice in Algebra. I have four years of experience tutoring one on one with students of all ages.

Studying economics at Dartmouth with a computational emphasis, Eric digs into both the theoretical models and the real-world data that test them. He's particularly effective at unpacking concepts like elasticity, comparative advantage, and market equilibrium — translating the math into plain-language reasoning that sticks.

Studying economics at the University of Chicago — where the discipline's most influential modern ideas were developed — means Benjamin is immersed in microeconomic reasoning and market theory at a school that takes the subject unusually seriously. His 35 ACT and strong math background let him move comfortably between the graphical intuition of supply-and-demand analysis and the algebraic problem-solving that trips up students when courses start introducing equations. Rated 4.8 by his students.

I'm a 24 year old student of life that graduated from Vanderbilt University in 2014. My first experience with tutoring came 5 years ago when I opened a branch of ACT prep tutoring for Revolution Prep. At that time, I taught small classes of 5-9 students and also worked as a private tutor. I absolutely love to learn and am fulfilled by guiding students to reach their maximum potential.

Studying Politics, Philosophy, and Economics at Penn means Esther encounters economic concepts not in isolation but tangled up with the political incentives and philosophical arguments that shape them — why a carbon tax gets framed as market efficiency in one class and as an ethical obligation in another. That interdisciplinary wiring is especially useful for students who need to understand the reasoning behind economic models, not just the graphs themselves. Rated 5.0 by her students.

Three economics degrees deep, Simon lives in supply-and-demand curves, GDP models, and game theory the way most people live in their native language. He unpacks concepts like elasticity, monetary policy, and market equilibrium by tying them to real headlines — tariff debates, Federal Reserve decisions, housing markets — so the math and the intuition reinforce each other.

Carter earned his economics degree at Brown and then taught game theory to advanced middle school students at a Johns Hopkins CTY program in Hong Kong — so he knows how to make concepts like Nash equilibria, marginal analysis, and market structures click for learners at very different levels. He connects economic models to real decisions rather than leaving them as abstract graphs. His approach digs into the intuition behind supply-and-demand shifts, elasticity, and welfare analysis so the math and the logic reinforce each other.

I am highly proficient in other areas in economics, high school mathematics, calculus I and European history.

Supply and demand curves are easy enough to draw — the hard part is understanding elasticity, equilibrium shifts, and what happens when you layer in government intervention. Conor's dual background in mathematics and finance from the University of Pittsburgh means he can walk through both the graphical intuition and the underlying algebra that drives economic models.
