I love helping students in topics related to math, to finance (public and private equity) and to engineering. I believe that if I can't explain concept, then I don't understand it. By that same token, if a student can't explain a concept back to me, then they don't understand it even if they say ...

Stephen
Calculus Tutor • +21 Subjects
I am currently an adjunct professor of economics at Fordham University in Manhattan. My degrees are from Rice University (PhD) and Yale University (BA) The PhD is in economics, and that was my major as an undergraduate. Teaching the subject I love is rewarding, working with students to promote their careers (e.g., letters of recommendation, mentoring internships, counseling) is doubly rewarding. I strongly believe in personal engagement with students, while always maintaining the correct standards of scholarship. I should add, finally, that I am also a market researcher for private clients for over 30 years and am currently focusing on urban/suburban mobility markets. I enjoy jogging in the outdoors (no crowded gyms for me) and make a real effort to stay in shape. I would look forward to helping you master the subject of economics!
Benjamin
AP Statistics Tutor • +43 Subjects
I am a 2023 graduate of the University of Notre Dame with a Finance/Economics major and a minor in Innovation and Entrepreneurship. I am a passionate student in the math and business realms, as I enjoy the intuitiveness of the former and the real-world potential of the latter. During classes in middle and high school, I developed a reputation of being a good source of help within my classes in a non-tutor capacity, and grew that into a peer tutor role a couple times a week during lunch my senior year of high school. What I hope to accomplish with my tutoring is ensure that you not only achieve your desired grade/score, but see how the different concepts relate to each other in the bigger picture. The more important part is to critically think about the subject matter in other, more unfamiliar contexts. Also, in my math subjects, I seek to provide personal secrets in realms including quicker computation strategies, unique acronyms for certain rules, and other intuitive shortcuts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Students often find time value of money concepts challenging—particularly present value, future value, and discount rate calculations—because they require both conceptual understanding and precise mathematical execution. Other common pain points include mastering financial ratio analysis (liquidity, profitability, leverage ratios) and understanding how to interpret them in context, balance sheet mechanics and the accounting equation, and connecting supply and demand curves to real market behavior. Many students can memorize formulas but struggle to apply them to case studies or understand why a particular financial metric matters for decision-making.
Strong Finance tutors focus on building conceptual foundations first—explaining why the time value of money exists (opportunity cost) before diving into NPV calculations, or why certain financial ratios reveal business health before students compute them. They use real-world scenarios: analyzing an actual company's balance sheet, discussing how interest rates affect bond valuations, or walking through a merger's financial impact. This approach helps students see Finance as a decision-making tool rather than a collection of equations, making formulas stick and enabling them to tackle unfamiliar problems with confidence.
Beyond basic algebra, Finance requires comfort with statistical analysis (standard deviation, correlation, probability distributions), financial modeling (building multi-year projections and sensitivity analyses), and understanding how to interpret data in spreadsheets. Students also need to master accounting mechanics—journal entries, T-accounts, and how transactions flow through financial statements—since errors here cascade through ratio analysis. Tutors help students develop these skills by working through progressively complex problems, from simple present value calculations to building a three-statement model, ensuring students understand both the mechanics and the logic behind each step.
Strong Finance fundamentals are essential groundwork for both paths. CPA candidates need deep accounting knowledge, so tutoring that emphasizes GAAP principles, consolidation accounting, and audit concepts provides a head start. CFA candidates benefit from tutoring that builds expertise in financial analysis, valuation methods, and portfolio management concepts tested at each level. Tutors familiar with these career tracks can prioritize topics and problem types that align with professional exams, helping students build knowledge that transfers directly rather than treating Finance as isolated coursework.
AP Economics focuses on microeconomic and macroeconomic principles—supply and demand, elasticity, fiscal and monetary policy—with less emphasis on financial statement analysis or valuation. College-level Finance builds on economic thinking but shifts toward practical business applications: how to value a company, analyze investment decisions, and understand capital markets. Tutors adjust their approach accordingly: AP students need help connecting abstract concepts like opportunity cost to real decisions, while college Finance students need to master technical skills like calculating WACC or interpreting financial ratios alongside economic reasoning.
Balance sheets intimidate students because they require understanding the accounting equation (Assets = Liabilities + Equity) as a dynamic system, not just a formula. Students often memorize account classifications but can't explain why a loan appears on the liability side or how retained earnings connect to profitability. Expert tutors build this understanding by starting with simple transactions—a company borrows money, buys equipment, earns revenue—and showing how each flows through the balance sheet step-by-step. Once students see the balance sheet as a snapshot of financial position that changes with every business decision, they can analyze real companies' statements and spot red flags like deteriorating liquidity or excessive leverage.
Investment analysis requires students to synthesize multiple Finance skills: reading financial statements, calculating growth rates, understanding discount rates, and making judgment calls about future performance. Tutors help by working through complete valuation examples—say, using discounted cash flow analysis to value a stock—where students see how assumptions about revenue growth and terminal value drive the final answer. This hands-on approach reveals why small changes in discount rate assumptions create large valuation swings, helping students develop the critical thinking needed for real investment decisions rather than just plugging numbers into formulas.
Marginal analysis—understanding how one additional unit changes total cost, revenue, or profit—is foundational to Finance decisions but abstract for many students. Tutors make it concrete by using business scenarios: should a company produce one more unit given its cost structure? Should an investor add one more stock to a portfolio? Opportunity cost is similarly mastered through examples: choosing between two projects means giving up the benefits of the rejected option, which should factor into the decision. When tutors connect these concepts to real capital budgeting problems or pricing decisions, students develop intuition that transfers to unfamiliar problems on exams or in case competitions.
