Award-Winning Accounting Tutors
serving Victorville, CA

I'm a recent graduate of the California Institute of Technology in Economics and Computer Science. I was also accepted at Harvard, Princeton, MIT, and Stanford. I have a broad range of interests spanning science, math, engineering, social science, the humanities, the arts, and athletics (I also played on the Caltech basketball team). My background allows me to tutor general college prep, especially the SAT, ACT and the GRE. I love to teach analytical thinking, ranging from advanced Math and Physics to strategies for understanding literature and developing arguments.

I am originally from Augusta, Georgia and did my undergraduate studies at the College of Charleston in South Carolina. I waited tables through college there and majored in accounting. I am currently a graduate student at the Leventhal school of accounting at USC. I enjoy guitar, reading, and fitness.

Currently in his second semester at UGA's Tull School of Accounting and planning to pursue a Master of Accountancy, Ian is deep in the material that introductory accounting students are just encountering. He tackles the concepts that tend to confuse beginners — journal entries, T-accounts, adjusting entries, and the logic behind debits and credits — with the perspective of someone who recently learned to think like an accountant.

Debits and credits follow a logic that, once internalized, makes the rest of accounting fall into place — journal entries, T-accounts, adjusting entries, even full financial statement preparation. Erik's business training at BYU included accounting coursework, and he approaches the subject by anchoring every transaction to the accounting equation so students always know why the numbers balance.

Sami's economics degree from Duke and real-world experience at both a management consulting firm and a Fortune 500 company mean he understands how accounting concepts like accrual methods, journal entries, and financial statement analysis play out beyond the textbook. Now pursuing his MBA at Yale, he connects debits and credits to the bigger strategic picture that makes the material click.

Gerard's MBA coursework covered the financial reporting and analysis side of business, giving him a practical lens on topics like income statements, cost behavior, and managerial accounting decisions. He teaches accounting as a decision-making tool — connecting ledger work back to the business questions it's designed to answer, which keeps the material from feeling like rote number-shuffling.

Most of Emina's teaching load sits in math, writing, and SAT prep — but her state teaching certification and business coursework mean she can break down the accounting cycle with the structured, step-by-step clarity of someone trained to teach systematically. She connects each ledger entry and financial statement line item back to the quantitative reasoning her students already use in algebra and statistics, which makes the logic of double-entry bookkeeping feel less foreign.

Jon's finance degree from UGA included extensive coursework in accounting fundamentals, from journal entries and T-accounts through financial statement preparation. He breaks down the logic behind debits and credits so the rules feel intuitive rather than arbitrary, which makes adjusting entries and closing processes far easier to retain.

Decades as a CFO — in both for-profit and nonprofit organizations — means Bill has lived accounting rather than just studied it. He breaks down debits and credits, journal entries, and the full accounting cycle by connecting textbook rules to how real companies actually track and report their finances. He's currently finishing CPA certification requirements himself, so the material is fresh.

Logan's physics degree required rigorous quantitative problem-solving — tracking units, balancing equations, and maintaining systematic precision — skills that transfer directly to working through the accounting cycle. He approaches journal entries and financial statement preparation as logical puzzles, breaking each transaction into its component parts so the mechanics of double-entry bookkeeping feel structured rather than arbitrary.

Nearly twenty years as a licensed CPA — spanning public practice, manufacturing, banking, and nonprofit work — means Sharon has seen the full accounting cycle play out in wildly different contexts. She unpacks debits, credits, journal entries, and financial statement preparation by connecting textbook rules to how transactions actually move through a real organization. Rated 5.0 by students.

Studying finance and statistics at NYU means Eric encounters accounting principles from the other side — as the language businesses use to communicate financial health. That perspective lets him teach concepts like the accounting equation, income statements, and balance sheets by showing what the numbers mean in practice, not just how to record them. Rated 5.0 by students.

Maria's Applied Mathematics and Business Economics degree at UCLA means she approaches accounting problems the way they're designed to be solved — quantitatively, with the math driving the logic of each ledger entry. She tackles topics like cost behavior, break-even analysis, and managerial accounting by tying the numbers back to the economic decisions businesses actually face.

Jake teaches accounting across multiple levels — from introductory debits and credits through corporate accounting, tax accounting, and intermediate topics like bond amortization and lease classifications. His engineering background means he approaches journal entries and financial statements with the same precision he'd apply to circuit analysis. Rated 5.0 by students, he's especially effective at breaking down the logic behind accrual-basis adjustments.
