Award-Winning Microeconomics Tutors
serving Tucson, AZ

Jake's marketing degree gives him a practical angle on microeconomic concepts — he's studied how firms actually respond to price elasticity, how consumers weigh marginal utility in purchasing decisions, and why market structures shape advertising strategy. That real-world grounding makes abstract models like profit maximization and cost curves feel less like graph exercises and more like tools businesses use every day. Rated 4.9 by students.

Running a SaaS company means living microeconomics daily — pricing strategies, marginal cost decisions, and reading market signals in real time. John brings that operational lens to concepts like elasticity, consumer surplus, and game theory, making abstract models feel like tools rather than textbook exercises. Rated 5.0 by students.

An economics degree from Northwestern gave Andrew the theoretical grounding to unpack microeconomic concepts like elasticity, market structures, and consumer choice theory with real clarity. He connects abstract models — indifference curves, marginal utility, game theory — to concrete examples drawn from his dual background in economics and law. Rated 4.9 by students, he's particularly sharp at teaching how firms make pricing and production decisions under different competitive conditions.

Maurice's Special Education master's degree trained him to diagnose exactly where a student's understanding breaks down — a skill that pays off in microeconomics, where one fuzzy concept like marginal cost or elasticity can make every subsequent model feel impossible. He rebuilds that reasoning chain piece by piece, connecting each graph to the decision it represents so students can work through supply-and-demand shifts or market structure problems on their own.

Every project at an architecture firm is a microeconomics problem — weighing marginal costs against marginal benefits, negotiating contracts under asymmetric information, allocating scarce resources across competing priorities. Emeka brings that daily practice into tutoring sessions, unpacking concepts like consumer surplus, production functions, and market structures with examples students can actually picture.

I am a student at the Barrett Honors College, a part of Arizona State University. I expect to earn my Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics with a focus on physics in December 2022. While my degree has had a heavy focus on physical sciences, I have also completed a variety of coursework in social and life sciences to prepare for my post-graduation plans. After graduation, I hope to earn either a Bachelor of Science in Nursing or a Master of Science in Entry to Nursing Practice and begin work as a pediatric nurse. I decided to change my path from mathematics and physics to nursing because I perform best and feel happiest when I am working with others, which is why I am so excited to have the opportunity to be a tutor. I first realized my passion for people-centered work in high school when I volunteered with the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation to help educate financial donors and newly diagnosed families on the science of type 1 diabetes. My passion grew throughout my time in college, during which I joined a division of a Rotary club, which matches people of all ages with service projects within their local community, became a teaching assistant for a Socratic-seminar discussion and writing course for freshmen in Barrett Honors College, and worked as a student researcher in a physics lab, where I had to collaborate with my colleagues to address research problems and clearly present my specific field of work to others who were less well versed in the topic.

I am currently in the process of obtaining a Bachelor of Science degree in pure mathematics at Rice University in Houston, Texas. I tutor a wide range of subjects including U.S. History, algebra, calculus, chemistry, comparative politics, economics, and test preparation. Although I enjoy tutoring in all of these subjects, I especially like tutoring math-related subjects such as high school algebra, calculus, and linear algebra. Outside of class and tutoring, I enjoy golfing, stargazing, collecting foreign coins, and playing the violin.

Consumer theory, production costs, and market structures each require a different kind of thinking — sometimes graphical, sometimes mathematical, sometimes purely intuitive. Catherine's background teaching both math and economics means she can walk students through utility maximization and cost curves without losing them in the algebra, keeping the economic reasoning front and center.

From elasticity calculations to the nuances of monopolistic competition, microeconomics requires students to think graphically and verbally at the same time. David breaks down each market structure by walking through the firm's decision-making process step by step — where marginal cost meets marginal revenue, why profits shrink in the long run, and what happens when assumptions change. His entrepreneurship background means these aren't hypothetical firms to him.

Pursuing a PhD in economics means Jacob isn't just passing through microeconomics — he's building a career on it, with the mathematical rigor from his joint math studies to back it up. He teaches students to think through models like a researcher would, connecting the intuition behind consumer choice or firm behavior to the calculus that formalizes it. Rated 5.0 by students.

At UCLA, Christopher studied economics with a double major that gave him both the quantitative models and the historical context behind how markets actually develop — useful when explaining why perfectly competitive markets rarely exist or how government intervention reshapes incentive structures. His time at Deutsche Bank adds a practical dimension to topics like firm pricing behavior and cost analysis, since he's seen how businesses weigh marginal decisions with real money on the line.

Supply and demand curves are just the starting point — Hari digs into elasticity, marginal utility, and market structures like oligopoly and monopolistic competition to show how firms actually make pricing decisions. His MBA in Finance gives him real-world context for concepts like cost curves and profit maximization that textbooks often present too abstractly. Rated 5.0 by students.

Marginal cost curves, elasticity calculations, and market structure models can blur together without a clear framework for when each tool applies. Dylan's policy analysis training required him to use microeconomic models to evaluate everything from healthcare markets to environmental regulation, so he teaches these concepts through the lens of actual decision-making. Students leave sessions understanding not just how to solve the problem set but why firms and consumers behave the way the models predict.

Elasticity, marginal cost curves, market structures, welfare analysis — microeconomics is built on deceptively simple ideas that get complicated fast. Stephen's PhD research at Rice and his current teaching at Fordham keep him immersed in exactly these concepts, and his market research career means he can show students how firms actually use pricing strategy and cost analysis outside the classroom.

The jump from basic supply-and-demand to consumer theory, production functions, and market structures trips up a lot of students because the math and the intuition have to work together. Eric unpacks each model — indifference curves, marginal cost pricing, game theory matrices — by tying the algebra back to the economic story it tells. His Business Administration training gives him a practical lens on how firms actually make these decisions.

Supply and demand curves are just the starting point — Zeeshan digs into the mechanics behind consumer choice theory, price discrimination, and market structures like oligopoly and monopolistic competition. His PhD research at Vanderbilt keeps him immersed in microeconomic modeling daily, so he can unpack concepts like elasticity or game theory with real-world precision.

An economics degree from SUNY Albany means James can teach microeconomic concepts — supply and demand curves, elasticity, market structures, consumer choice theory — with the depth of someone who studied them formally. He connects abstract models like marginal utility and cost curves to real-world pricing decisions that make the logic intuitive. His 4.9 rating speaks to how clearly he breaks down graphs and mathematical relationships that trip students up.

Supply and demand curves are just the starting point — microeconomics gets interesting when students tackle consumer theory, elasticity, and market structures like oligopoly and monopolistic competition. Katherine's economics degree from Penn and her day job in management consulting mean she can ground these models in real business decisions, making abstract graphs feel intuitive.

Elasticity, consumer surplus, and market structures like monopolistic competition can feel abstract until someone maps them to decisions you actually make. Sheena, who is pursuing an accelerated Master's in Economics, teaches microeconomics by anchoring each concept in concrete scenarios — why airlines price-discriminate, how a tax shifts deadweight loss, what drives firm entry in the long run. She makes the graphs tell a story rather than just sit on the page.

With an applied math degree and PhD-level engineering work, Professor Florence tackles microeconomics from a deeply quantitative angle — the kind that makes optimization problems, constrained utility maximization, and cost function analysis feel like natural extensions of calculus rather than foreign territory. She teaches the mathematical machinery behind economic models so students understand what they're solving, not just how to push symbols around on an exam.
