Award-Winning Finance Tutors
serving Davenport, IA

Elliot is heading into financial markets after graduating from UChicago's economics program, so concepts like time value of money, portfolio theory, and capital structure aren't abstract textbook topics for him — they're the tools of his upcoming career. He unpacks financial models step by step, connecting the math to real market behavior.

Intensely curious, I am interested in STEM subjects and the liberal arts. I tutor to help you reach your educational goals and because it's immensely gratifying to see my students succeed.

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.

Joyce is finishing her Finance degree at Penn, which means concepts like DCF modeling, capital structure, and portfolio theory aren't abstract textbook topics for her — they're problems she works through weekly. She breaks down the math behind valuation and risk analysis so the formulas actually make intuitive sense.

Conor earned his finance degree alongside his math degree at the University of Pittsburgh, so he tackles topics like discounted cash flow, portfolio theory, and capital structure with real mathematical fluency. He connects the formulas to the logic behind them, which makes valuation models and risk analysis click instead of feeling like rote plug-and-chug.

Rosie holds a bachelor's degree in finance, so concepts like time value of money, capital structure, and financial statement analysis aren't abstract textbook topics for her — they're the foundation of her academic training. She walks through valuation models and ratio analysis step by step, connecting the math to the business logic behind each calculation.

Pursuing a joint MD/MBA, Sagar brings a quantitative rigor to finance topics like time value of money, capital budgeting, and ratio analysis that many business-only tutors lack. He walks through problems by building intuition around why formulas work, so students can adapt when exam questions change the setup.

A chemistry background might seem unrelated to finance, but Ankit's heavy quantitative training — differential equations, statistics, and data modeling — maps directly onto the math that drives concepts like compound interest, bond pricing, and amortization schedules. He approaches financial formulas the way a scientist approaches equations: by breaking each variable down until the underlying logic is clear, not just memorized.

Time value of money, capital budgeting, WACC, portfolio risk — finance courses pile on quantitative concepts fast, and falling behind on one topic cascades into the next. Hari earned his MBA with a finance concentration and applies that depth to walk through DCF models, ratio analysis, and valuation methods with the precision students need to solve problems confidently on exams.

Time value of money, net present value, risk-return tradeoffs — finance is applied economics, and that's exactly where Nadine's strengths converge. She tackles problems like bond pricing and capital budgeting by first making sure students understand the underlying economic intuition before diving into formulas. Her Macalester economics training keeps sessions grounded in real-world reasoning rather than rote calculation.

Studying finance at the University of Illinois's College of Business, Jonathan unpacks concepts like time value of money, net present value, and basic portfolio theory with concrete, numbers-driven examples. He reads the Wall Street Journal daily, which means he can tie textbook formulas to what's actually happening in markets right now.

An English degree might seem like an unlikely path into finance, but Andrew's economics tutoring experience and strong quantitative instincts — evidenced by a 1560 SAT and 35 ACT — mean he's comfortable breaking down the math that underpins topics like compound interest, loan amortization, and basic valuation. He approaches finance the way a careful reader approaches a text: pulling apart each component to see how the pieces fit together, which is especially useful for students who find purely formula-driven instruction hard to follow.

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.
