I am a writer who works extensively with historical documents and researcher who embraces learning for life. I love making a subject engaging, interesting and ultimately seeing others succeed in their endeavors.

Conor earned his finance degree alongside his math degree at the University of Pittsburgh, so he tackles topics like discounted cash flow, portfolio theory, and capital structure with real mathematical fluency. He connects the formulas to the logic behind them, which makes valuation models and risk analysis click instead of feeling like rote plug-and-chug.
Joyce is finishing her Finance degree at Penn, which means concepts like DCF modeling, capital structure, and portfolio theory aren't abstract textbook topics for her — they're problems she works through weekly. She breaks down the math behind valuation and risk analysis so the formulas actually make intuitive sense.
I'm a graduate of Robert Morris University where I earned my BSBA in Economics and Finance. After graduating from RMU I attended Johns Hopkins University where I earned my MA in Applied Economics. My interests lie in the fields of banking, energy, healthcare, and public policy.
I am an experienced teacher with over 7 years' experience teaching a variety of ages and subjects. My areas of expertise include ESL, writing, music, and the general education curriculum. Outside of teaching, I spend my free time hiking, reading, doing yoga, and playing with my dog. I look forward to working with you!
A PhD in management gives Andrew a strong grasp of financial concepts like time value of money, capital budgeting, and risk-return tradeoffs. He breaks down quantitative problems step by step while connecting them to the broader business decisions they inform.
Victor doesn't just study finance in a classroom — he's applied it through summer internships at SunTrust Robinson Humphrey and Moelis & Company, two firms where financial modeling, valuation, and capital structure analysis are daily work. That real-world context lets him ground concepts like time value of money, DCF analysis, and ratio interpretation in how they're actually used on the job.
Time value of money, net present value, and portfolio risk calculations are ultimately math problems dressed in business language. Romeo's mathematics degree and PhD-track training give him the quantitative fluency to break down discounted cash flow models and amortization schedules so the numbers actually make sense. He connects each formula to the financial decision it's designed to answer.
As a Finance major at NYU — one of the top undergraduate business programs in the country — Eric digs into time value of money, DCF valuation, capital structure, and portfolio theory every day. He translates dense quantitative concepts into intuitive explanations, and his statistics training means he's equally comfortable with the Excel modeling and probability work that finance courses demand.
A double accounting degree gives Tony the financial statement fluency that underpins every finance concept — from time value of money calculations to capital budgeting and ratio analysis. He connects finance theory back to the underlying accounting data, so students actually understand where the numbers come from before learning what to do with them.
Michael's dual background in mathematics and finance means he doesn't just teach formulas like time value of money or CAPM — he unpacks the quantitative logic underneath them. From discounted cash flow analysis to portfolio risk calculations, he connects each concept to both the math and the real-world decision it informs.
Magnus earned his M.S. in Finance from UVA and now works as a Financial Analyst at an international law firm in New York. He breaks down concepts like DCF valuation, capital structure, and risk-return tradeoffs using real-world deal scenarios that make the theory click.
Political science trained Reid to think about how institutions, incentives, and policy shape economic outcomes — a lens that translates well to finance topics like risk assessment, time value of money, and capital allocation. He approaches financial concepts methodically, breaking formulas into the logic behind them rather than treating them as black boxes.
Andrew teaches finance as an adjunct professor, which means he's constantly explaining time value of money, capital budgeting, and risk-return tradeoffs to students encountering them for the first time. His engineering background adds a quantitative rigor that's especially useful when students hit DCF models or weighted average cost of capital calculations. Rated 4.8 by students.
Two MBA programs — UCLA Anderson and London Business School — with a concentration in finance and investments gave Albert deep fluency in DCF modeling, capital structure theory, and portfolio analysis. He unpacks concepts like WACC, option pricing, and risk-return tradeoffs by tying them to real market scenarios rather than leaving them as textbook formulas.
Time value of money, capital budgeting, and risk-return tradeoffs aren't just textbook exercises for Benjamin — they were core to his Finance degree at Notre Dame. He connects formulas like NPV and IRR to real decision-making scenarios so the math carries meaning beyond the problem set. Rated 5.0 by students.
As a CFA candidate with an economics degree and a background in financial accounting, Ezra lives in the world of time value of money, capital budgeting, and portfolio theory daily. He unpacks concepts like NPV, IRR, and risk-return tradeoffs by grounding the math in real decision-making scenarios rather than leaving students to memorize formulas. Whether the course leans corporate finance or investments, he knows the material from both the academic and practitioner side.

Frequently Asked Questions
Many students struggle with connecting abstract financial concepts to real-world applications, especially when learning about investments, risk assessment, and financial modeling. Additionally, the mathematical foundations—including percentages, compound interest calculations, and statistical analysis—can be challenging if students haven't mastered prerequisite math skills. Personalized instruction helps identify these specific gaps and builds confidence by working through problems at your own pace rather than keeping up with a classroom timeline.
Finance courses in Pittsburgh schools typically cover personal finance fundamentals, investment principles, financial planning, and business finance depending on the grade level and course type. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who understand both standard Finance curriculum expectations and the specific requirements of Pittsburgh's 32 school districts. Whether you're taking a high school elective, AP Finance, or a college-level course, tutors can tailor instruction to match your school's standards and help you master the concepts your teachers emphasize.
In a classroom with a 12.5:1 student-teacher ratio, it's difficult for teachers to address each student's specific learning style or pace through complex topics like financial analysis or portfolio management. One-on-one instruction allows tutors to slow down on concepts you find challenging, skip material you've already mastered, and use examples relevant to your interests—whether that's real estate, stock trading, or business planning. This focused approach typically leads to faster mastery and stronger conceptual understanding than classroom learning alone.
A solid grasp of algebra, percentages, and basic statistics will help you succeed in Finance. If you're weak in these areas, tutors can review them as part of your personalized plan before diving into more complex financial concepts like NPV calculations or risk-adjusted returns. Starting with the right foundation prevents frustration later and ensures you truly understand the 'why' behind financial formulas, not just how to plug in numbers.
Clear progress in Finance shows up in multiple ways: improved grades on assignments and exams, ability to solve complex case studies independently, stronger performance on standardized tests like the AP Finance exam, and genuine confidence when discussing financial concepts. Many students also notice they can now explain financial decisions to others, apply concepts to personal situations, and tackle multi-step problems without getting stuck. Your tutor will track these improvements throughout your sessions and adjust the curriculum to keep challenging you appropriately.
Your first session is about building a foundation for success. The tutor will assess your current understanding of Finance concepts, identify specific areas where you need support, and learn about your learning style and goals—whether that's improving a grade, preparing for an exam, or mastering a particular unit. From there, you'll work together to create a personalized plan that addresses your priorities and sets realistic milestones for improvement.
