Jake
Certified Economics Tutor
Jake
BA Washington University in St. Louis
1+ Years Tutoring

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.

Certified Economics Tutor
John
PhD Cornell Law School • BA Yale University
15+ Years Tutoring

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.

Andrew
BA Northwestern University • Juris Doctor, Law Tulane University of Louisiana
15+ Years Tutoring

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.

Amanda
MS University College london • BA Mount Holyoke College
1+ Years Tutoring

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.

Madeleine
BA Arizona State University
4+ Years Tutoring

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
MS Johns Hopkins University • BA Ner Israel Rabbinical College
6+ Years Tutoring

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.

Gabrielle
BA Arizona State University
8+ Years Tutoring

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
Current Undergrad, Mathematics Rice University
10+ Years Tutoring

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.

Emeka
BA University of Phoenix-Pittsburgh Campus
7+ Years Tutoring

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.

Mladen
BA University of Miami • Juris Doctor, Legal Studies Arizona State University
9+ Years Tutoring

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.

Kelcy
MBA Rice University
4+ Years Tutoring

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.

Gordon
BA Arizona State University
1+ Years Tutoring

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.

Dana
BA Brown University
1+ Years Tutoring

Supply and demand curves seem simple until you have to use them to predict what happens after a tax, a price ceiling, or a shift in consumer expectations. Dana approaches economics as applied logic rather than memorization, connecting each concept to real-world policy questions she studied extensively during her public policy coursework. Her 36 ACT reflects the same analytical precision she brings to economic reasoning.

He also teaches AP Micro, AP Macro, and econometrics, so he can connect introductory concepts to the formal models students will encounter as the material deepens. Rated 5.0 by his students.
