Jake's marketing degree means he studied the demand side of economics firsthand — consumer behavior, pricing strategy, and how firms respond to market signals are concepts he's applied, not just memorized. His strong quantitative background (he tutors AP Statistics and both AP Calculus courses) lets him handle the graphing and algebraic reasoning that economics problems demand when students move past definitions into actual analysis. Rated 4.9 by his students.

Building a SaaS company from the ground up gave John a practical education in supply and demand, pricing strategy, opportunity cost, and market structure that most economics tutors only know from textbooks. He uses those real-world examples to make concepts like elasticity and comparative advantage intuitive, then ties them back to the graphs and equations students need for exams.
Amanda's anthropology and biology training gives her an unusual entry point into economics — she's studied how societies organize resources, make collective decisions, and respond to scarcity long before those ideas get formalized into supply-and-demand curves. That cross-disciplinary perspective is especially useful for students wrestling with topics like development economics or behavioral models, where understanding human decision-making matters as much as the math behind it. Rated 4.9 by her students.
Andrew's dual degree in History and Economics from Northwestern means he studied economic theory alongside the historical events that shaped it — recessions, trade wars, policy shifts — giving him a narrative framework that makes concepts like comparative advantage or monetary policy feel less abstract. His law degree adds another layer: he can explain how regulatory structures and legal incentives actually alter market behavior. Rated 4.9 by his students.
Graphing cost curves or interpreting shifts in supply and demand becomes far less intimidating when someone can explain the math driving the models. Madeleine's applied mathematics background means she can unpack the quantitative side of economics — marginal analysis, optimization, equilibrium calculations — while still connecting those numbers to real-world intuition.
Maurice's statistics and math teaching background gives him a practical handle on the quantitative side of economics — reading supply-and-demand graphs, interpreting elasticity calculations, and working through the kind of data-driven questions that show up in introductory and AP-level courses. His special education training also means he's especially skilled at restructuring explanations on the fly when a concept like comparative advantage or market equilibrium isn't landing the first time around.
Business communications at Barrett Honors College means Gabrielle studies how organizations make decisions under constraints — the same logic that drives economic concepts like scarcity, trade-offs, and cost-benefit analysis. Her calculus background also lets her tackle the quantitative side when courses move into graphing marginal costs or calculating elasticity. Rated 5.0 by her students.
Aaron's pure mathematics training at Rice University means the graphing and algebraic reasoning that trip up many economics students — shifting supply curves, calculating elasticity, optimizing with derivatives in intermediate micro — come naturally to him. His breadth across calculus, AP Chemistry, and comparative government also lets him draw unexpected connections between economic models and the scientific or political contexts that give them meaning. Rated 4.9 by his students.
Civil engineering is fundamentally an exercise in resource allocation — every bridge design and infrastructure project Emeka has worked on involves weighing costs against benefits, optimizing under constraints, and forecasting demand. That real-world decision-making maps directly onto economics concepts like marginal analysis, scarcity, and efficiency, giving him a tangible way to explain ideas that often feel purely theoretical. Rated 5.0 by his students.
Supply and demand curves are straightforward until students have to explain why a price floor creates a surplus or trace the ripple effects of a tariff through multiple markets. Mladen's analytical training in law and psychology gives him a knack for breaking down these cause-and-effect chains so the logic clicks, not just the graphs.
I have an MBA from Rice University and both real-world business experience and teaching experience. Most recently, I taught a first-year college course in Microeconomics for nine years, in addition to other classes in the university's international trade program. My students came from over 30 countries! I've worked in over a dozen countries for the U.S. Department of Commerce, as well as for private firms in building engineering and the energy industry. I enjoy helping students gain competence and master their chosen area of study.
Before tutoring economics, Gordon spent years in biological sciences at Arizona State — which turns out to be surprisingly useful when students need to think about systems, trade-offs, and resource allocation, since ecology and economics share the same underlying logic of scarcity and optimization. His Teach for America experience and work mentoring premed undergraduates means he's taught students at every level how to reason through models rather than just memorize curves and definitions.
I am a graduate of Texas Christian University. I received my degree in Secondary Education with a Social Studies Emphasis and Mathematics Minor. I am currently pursuing my Masters of Education through the University of Notre Dame while teaching high school math and social studies. I have experience tutoring the PSAT, ACT, SAT, and various math subjects. I look forward to working with you!
Thirty years of teaching Government and Economics classes — from AP-level policy analysis down to ELL sections where every term needs careful unpacking — means Catherine has explained concepts like fiscal policy, market incentives, and budget trade-offs to virtually every type of learner. Her American Studies background gives her a natural entry point through the economic forces that shaped U.S. history, connecting abstract models to the tariffs, recessions, and policy debates students already recognize. Rated 4.9 by her students.
Studying both engineering and economics at Duke gave Natalie a quantitative lens on economic reasoning — she's comfortable moving between supply-and-demand intuition and the math behind elasticity, optimization, and equilibrium. She digs into the "why" behind each model so students can apply concepts to unfamiliar problems, not just textbook examples.
As an economics major at Dartmouth, Mia engages with concepts like market equilibrium, elasticity, and game theory on a daily basis. She unpacks the intuition behind graphs and models so that supply-and-demand curves and GDP calculations actually make sense instead of feeling like abstract formulas to memorize.
Supply and demand curves are just the starting point — Dawn digs into the mechanics of market equilibrium, elasticity, monetary policy, and game theory that make economics click at the college level. Her B.S. in Economics with a finance concentration from Duke means she can connect textbook models to how markets actually behave.
Supply and demand curves are simple enough on the surface, but economics gets tricky fast once students hit elasticity, market structures, or macroeconomic models. Emma minored in economics at Harvard, so she can unpack concepts like comparative advantage or fiscal policy with real-world examples that make the math and the theory click together. She holds a 5.0 client rating.
An MBA in Finance and Management gives Hari the kind of fluency with economic reasoning that comes from applying it — building financial models, analyzing market conditions, weighing strategic trade-offs in real business contexts. He teaches micro and macro concepts like elasticity, monetary policy, and market structures by connecting them to the finance and accounting decisions where those ideas actually matter. Rated 5.0 by his students.
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.
Studying economics at Yale means Conor is working through the same problem sets, models, and exam formats that many of his students are currently facing — from micro concepts like elasticity and market structures to macro topics like GDP accounting and monetary policy. That proximity to the material, paired with a 1590 SAT that signals serious quantitative chops, makes him especially sharp at walking through the graphs and algebra that tend to separate students who memorize definitions from those who actually understand how economic models work.
Studying economics and finance at Wharton means Samica encounters micro and macroeconomic theory daily — supply and demand curves, market structures, GDP modeling — and can translate those concepts into clear, intuitive explanations. She connects abstract ideas like elasticity or comparative advantage to real-world business cases, which makes the material stick far better than rote definition review.
Monetary policy, banking systems, and market behavior aren't abstractions to Cole — they were the focus of his cum laude master's thesis at the University of Amsterdam. He teaches economics by grounding theory in current events, so students see how supply-and-demand diagrams or GDP calculations connect to headlines they've actually read. Rated 5.0 by students.
I am graduated from Penn State University in Industrial Engineering in 2017. I've tutored ever since I was in high school, and I love helping people! I like to help my students understand math (and other topics) instead of just doing it blindly. My goal is to help my students improve their math (and other topics) and build skills that will help them find learning easier in the future! Fun fact, I used to work for Disney and I like to salsa dance!
Supply and demand curves are straightforward until you layer in elasticity, market failures, and government intervention — then economics gets interesting. Eliza earned her economics degree from Penn and tackles concepts like comparative advantage and marginal analysis by tying them to real-world examples students actually recognize, from streaming service pricing to minimum wage debates.
Studying both History and Economics at Harvard, Finley tackles economics the way it actually works — as a discipline shaped by real-world policy decisions and historical context. He breaks down concepts like supply-and-demand elasticity, market structures, and game theory by grounding them in concrete examples rather than abstract graphs alone. Rated 5.0 by students.
