I have been teaching management and economics at different levels in the last decades. Teaching is my passion. The best compliment that I have received from students is when they say: You are a real teacher. My explanations are simple and full of practical examples. I have worked as a professor, manager and international business consultant in different countries. I have had a broad educational background in Economics, Finance, Management, Technology and Education.... Sometimes students do not understand the theory, because it has too much math or graphs or you do not know to answer an assignment. In those cases they need simple, practical explanations with examples. That is what I do. In a few words, I help students to improve their comprehension and grades. There is an old English saying: "There are no bad students, there are bad teachers".

I very much enjoy helping students build confidence in themselves as they achieve their learning goals. I love learning new things that I can then teach others. I like to build up a variety of subjects that I enjoy teaching.

...others succeed. That lightbulb moment when a student finally "gets" it is the best. My academic background includes a BA in history, an MBA, and the CFA exams (levels I and II). I tutor mostly math subjects. The numbers all have a story to tell and I love piecing together the different parts of the puzzle to find out what that story is. I'm a big fan of analogies and examples, so I use them...

...tailor instruction to fit that learning style. In my spare time, I like to watch TV and movies, especially when time travel is involved. The idea of time and time travel is fascinating to me. I also like to read books that take a classic story and re-imagine them into different contexts, places, and times. I am currently reading "Cress", the third book in the Lunar Chronicles series by Marissa Meyer. "Cress" is based on...

Hailing from a grandmother and mother who are both public school teachers, my passion for mentorship and tutoring started at a young age and my new degree from the University of Colorado - Boulder allows me to better help students in need.

I have 2 wonderful dogs, and have always been very happy to be surrounded by pets.

I'm a highly experienced senior business executive, with over 20 years experience in all aspects of business management, from accounting, finance and economics to business management and ethics.... My approach to teaching is to provide real-life situations which demonstrate the concept, and then to work through numerous and varying examples and problems until the concept has been thoroughly mastered.... Each student learns differently. My primary goal in the first meeting is to understand how they learn, what their current understanding is of the course content, and what they wish to gain by personal tutoring. This may involve determining where the student believes their shortfall in understanding of the subject matter is. On some occasions, the student may not know where their shortfall is, so I will need to determine that with the help of the student. It may also be helpful to talk the student's parents (if a high-school student) to determine the shortfall.
