Award-Winning Finance Tutors
serving Glendale, AZ

I am a graduate of the University of California, Los Angeles- Letters of Science department. I received my Bachelor's in biological sciences in June 2020. While in school, I worked part-time as an Accounts Payable Assistant for the library business services and I volunteered a lot of my time providing assistance to hospitalized geriatric populations at UCLA medical center. I was also part of a free clinic community where I provided preventive medicine advice and performed glucose and blood pressure exams on the medically underserved communities in South Los Angeles. In addition, as part of a Peer Mentorship Program, I guided incoming freshmen in getting adjusted to the college environment and provided resources for academic services available on campus. Since graduation, I have worked as an Accounts Receivable Specialist, tutored students on Upchieve and Junior Achievement online platforms, and improved my learning and organizational skills using skillshare. While I am interested in tutoring a wide range of subjects, I am most passionate about teaching Science, Math, and English. I am a strong advocate for education and I truly believe in the power of collaborative learning and helping students achieve their academic goals. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family, going on hikes, and participating in volleyball and badminton matches!

I am always looking for new approaches to benefit every student better.

Time value of money, discounted cash flow, and capital structure decisions are concepts Idara uses in her actual career — she's spent years in the finance industry after completing her MS in Management Science & Engineering at Stanford. She unpacks formulas like NPV and IRR by connecting them to real investment decisions, making the math feel purposeful instead of arbitrary.

Time value of money, present and future value calculations, annuity pricing — finance leans heavily on the kind of quantitative reasoning Irene has taught for years. She unpacks the math behind financial formulas so students understand what each variable actually does, rather than blindly plugging numbers into a calculator.

As a finance major in Villanova's Honors Program, Jenna digs into the concepts students find most intimidating — time value of money calculations, DCF modeling, WACC, and capital structure decisions. She connects textbook formulas to the reasoning behind them, so students can set up problems from scratch instead of hunting for which equation to plug numbers into.

I am certified in the state of Florida to teach Middle Grades Mathematics 5-9. I have a bachelors degree in Finance and Masters degree in Sustainable Real Estate Development from Tulane University. I previously worked in real estate for two years prior to moving to Miami and was involved as a mentor with Big Brothers Big Sisters for much of that time.

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.

Alex co-majored in Finance and International Business, which means topics like foreign exchange risk, cross-border capital flows, and multinational financial planning weren't electives — they were the core of his degree. He teaches financial concepts by linking them to the global business context that makes them relevant, whether it's hedging strategies or interpreting how currency fluctuations affect valuation. Rated 5.0 by students.

Time value of money, DCF analysis, capital structure — Vignesh isn't just studying these concepts, he's living them as a finance major at the University of Georgia. That proximity to the coursework means he knows exactly which formulas professors emphasize and where students typically lose points on problem sets. He breaks down financial modeling step by step so the logic behind each calculation is clear.

Three decades of market research for private clients gives Stephen a practitioner's grasp of financial concepts — from discounted cash flow and capital budgeting to portfolio risk analysis. He teaches finance the way it actually gets used: building models, interpreting real data, and connecting textbook theory to how firms and investors make decisions. He holds a PhD in Economics from Rice and a 4.9 rating from students.

Time value of money, net present value, and capital budgeting all rely on the same core math — but finance courses layer on terminology that can obscure the underlying calculations. Rahi's triple engineering background means he's comfortable with the quantitative side and can quickly show students how to set up cash flow diagrams, discount rates, and amortization schedules from scratch.

Carl's economics degree from Uppsala University was concentrated in macroeconomics, which means he digs into finance from the system level down — interest rate mechanics, time value of money, portfolio risk, and how capital markets actually function. He connects textbook formulas like NPV and CAPM to real market behavior, making the quantitative side of finance intuitive rather than formulaic.

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.

Bowen studied finance at the undergraduate level and brings that training directly into sessions on time value of money, discounted cash flow analysis, and portfolio risk assessment. He's especially sharp at walking through the logic behind formulas — why you discount at a particular rate, what beta actually measures — so students can solve problems they haven't seen before, not just replicate textbook examples.
