Tyler

College English Tutor • +42 Subjects

I am a graduate of Wright State University. I received my Bachelor of Integrated Language Arts and my Master of Education. Throughout much of my program, I have had many opportunities to tutor students from a variety of different backgrounds. The vast bulk of my experience tutoring has been with middle and high school students in "at-risk" school districts and students who speak English as a second language in Dayton, Ohio. Ever since my days in the public school system, English class was the one place where I felt free to be myself and fully embrace what I was being taught. My wonderful instructors showed me that writing especially was a gateway to self-expression, and whenever I tutor students for writing, I try to teach the subject with all the opportunities in the world for the student to write about themselves and give them a platform to express what really matters to them. It's that chance to inject themselves into their studies that allows a student to form deeper connections with the subject. In my spare time, I'm an avid reader, a long-time player of table-top Role Playing Games, and a bicyclist.

I have loved math all my life and I took lots of it in school as I obtained my BS in Electrical Engineering Technology. I even attended math contests. Now I have the opportunity to help others with their math. I have been tutoring for more than nine years and I really enjoy it. I work with students in middle school, high school and college level math. My daytime job, for six plus years, was tutoring college students in math and electronics. I don't just give out the answers but I help the student with the methods to find the answers. I can help with algebra I and II, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus, AP calculus, math I, II and III. I am also very good with computers and Microsoft Excel.

Tom

Algebra Tutor • +30 Subjects

I received my Bachelors Degree in 2012 from Thomas Aquinas College, double majoring in philosophy and theology, with a minor in math. I then went on to receive my Master's of Science in Business Analysis in 2013 from Catholic University of America. Since graduation, I have worked for environmental non-profits, helping plant trees across the world, and for consulting firms, helping to mitigate risk in user processes and IT risk analysis. While I tutor in a broad range of subjects, my personal favorites are history, literature, algebra, and philosophy.My approach is focused on two things: perspective and passion. I genuinely believe that learning is one of the greatest gifts society can give us today, and one of the best things we can pursue for ourselves. All knowledge is connected, and rather than approaching a subject as simply that subject by itself, everything we learn opens new doors for our minds, and into subjects we sometimes never knew about or never believed to be as intertwined. For example: is it simply coincidence that the studies of astronomy and philosophy tend to happen at the same time for early cultures? Or that early arithmetical and geometrical proofs were found to exist in natural formations? I find that once connections and insights like the previous occur with the learner, passion begins to grow, and education no longer becomes a requirement, but a self-employed pursuit.In my spare time, I love expanding my knowledge of different artists in many different genres, always looking for my new favorite. I also enjoy spending time with friends and family, recreational reading, playing board games and video games, and watching NFL games with my dad.

Chelsea

Algebra Tutor • +28 Subjects

I am currently finishing my Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience at the University of Southern California and will continue onto medical school in the fall of 2015 at USC. I have also completed a portion of my studies at the University of Oxford in the UK. I have been tutoring for the last five years and specialize in a variety of subjects at the middle school, high school, and college level - from Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics to Psychology, English, and French. I enjoy helping students develop their study habits, time management skills, reading, writing, and critical thinking abilities at many levels. I truly believe that all students have the potential to excel academically, and it's my pleasure to help them discover the key to unlocking their success. My tutoring style varies depending on the subject and student, but my core philosophy is that tutoring has the greatest long-term effect when students develop a passion for learning and acquire the critical thinking abilities and study habits to last throughout a lifetime. In addition to academia, I spend time teaching health workshops in under-served areas of Los Angeles. I also enjoy running, yoga, and spending time outdoors.

Welcome! I look forward to improving your skills. I am a Elementary Education/Special Education Teacher with experience from K-12. I have used all kinds of tools to improve reading skills, phonics to sound out words that re unknown, reading comprehension to be able to answer questions about what they read such as details or drawing conclusions, writing and basic math. My students enjoy the instruction because of the success that they are able to achieve. I keep in close communication with parents so that can see what their child is achieving and allow me to address any of their concerns. Students work with me and also have independent practice opportunities. When the student succeeds, I feel so proud.

While at Cornell, I was a teaching assistant and also spent time tutoring young men for their GED exams and fellow students in Biology and Chemistry. I currently tutor various subjects, but feel most strongly about Biology. I also find that I enjoy tutoring for MCAT preparation, as I understand how difficult the process can be, and wish to help others in the way that my own MCAT tutor helped me.

Frequently Asked Questions

Managerial Economics combines economic theory with business decision-making, which often trips up students who excel in pure economics but struggle with real-world application. The main challenges include: mastering quantitative techniques like regression analysis and cost-benefit analysis, bridging the gap between microeconomic concepts and strategic business decisions, and understanding how to use marginal analysis and game theory to solve actual management problems.

Personalized instruction helps address these gaps by focusing on the specific areas where you're struggling—whether that's the math, the conceptual framework, or the application piece—rather than moving through material at a standardized pace.

While traditional Economics focuses on how markets work and aggregate economic behavior, Managerial Economics applies economic principles to help individual firms and managers make better decisions. You'll study demand estimation, pricing strategies, capital budgeting, and organizational structure—all through the lens of maximizing firm value and competitive advantage.

This requires not just understanding economic theory, but also learning when and how to apply it to real business scenarios. A tutor can help you make these connections explicit and practice translating concepts into actionable strategies.

You'll need a solid foundation in microeconomics (supply and demand, elasticity, perfect competition) and comfort with algebra and basic calculus. Many Managerial Economics courses also assume you understand financial statements, accounting basics, and probability/statistics, since you'll use these tools to analyze business decisions.

If you're weak in any of these prerequisites, connecting with a tutor early can help you fill gaps quickly rather than falling behind once the course begins. Tutors can also help you refresh these foundational skills in the context of managerial problems, making the review more relevant and engaging.

The best tutors combine strong economics knowledge with real business experience or insight. They should be able to explain why a firm would use regression analysis to estimate demand, connect game theory to actual competitive strategies, and walk you through case studies or examples that illustrate how theory drives business decisions.

They also need to be comfortable with the quantitative side—helping you set up and solve optimization problems, work through financial analysis, and interpret results in a business context. Look for tutors who ask diagnostic questions early to understand your specific gaps and can tailor their teaching to your learning style and goals.

Research on 1-on-1 instruction shows that personalized learning accelerates progress because a tutor can immediately identify where your understanding breaks down and address it, rather than letting misconceptions pile up. In Managerial Economics, this means focusing intensively on the topics that confuse you—whether it's elasticity calculations, game theory applications, or translating a business problem into an economic model.

You'll also get targeted practice on problem types that appear on exams, feedback on your reasoning, and strategies for connecting concepts. Students typically see measurable improvements in test scores, assignment grades, and confidence in class participation within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring.

The most common trouble spots are demand estimation and forecasting (especially using regression and elasticity), pricing strategy and optimization (maximizing profit given constraints), and game theory applications (understanding competitive dynamics and strategic moves). Students also struggle with capital budgeting decisions, where they need to combine time-value-of-money concepts with risk analysis.

Additionally, translating word problems or real business scenarios into mathematical models trips up many students—they understand the economics conceptually but can't set up the problem correctly. A tutor can give you targeted practice in these areas and teach you frameworks for approaching unfamiliar problem types.

Most students benefit from 1-2 sessions per week, each lasting 60-90 minutes, depending on where they're starting and how much of the course material they've already covered. If you're struggling early in the course, starting with two sessions per week helps you catch up and build momentum. Once you're on track, many students drop to one session per week for ongoing support and exam prep.

The key is consistency—regular tutoring allows you to apply what you learn in tutoring sessions to your homework and classwork, creating a reinforcement loop. Varsity Tutors can help you determine the right schedule based on your goals and current performance.
