Award-Winning Finance Tutors
serving Raleigh, NC

I am Professor Florence. I teach at USC, UCSB, Pepperdine University, CSUN, Cal Tech, and other Universities. I received my bachelor's in Math and Psychology at UCLA, Ph.D. work in Engineering at Virginia Tech, and MBA in Marketing and New Venture Management at USC. I graduated at the top of my class, Phi Beta Kappa, Magna Cum Laude, Highest Honors, full fellowships, and more. I am an expert on:

A master's in Finance means Alex can dig into time value of money calculations, capital budgeting, and portfolio theory with real fluency — not just textbook definitions. He connects financial models to how actual firms make investment and funding decisions, which makes concepts like WACC and DCF analysis click faster.

Studying management and finance at NYU Stern while eyeing strategy consulting and M&A means Mat lives in the intersection of financial theory and corporate decision-making — he can explain why a firm's capital structure matters when it's weighing an acquisition, not just how to calculate WACC. His seven years of tutoring experience show in how he breaks down valuation frameworks and financial modeling into clear, logical steps.

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.

Time value of money, DCF models, capital structure — Max doesn't just teach these concepts from a textbook. He's finishing his finance degree at Ohio State and heading into investment banking in Chicago, so he walks students through valuation and corporate finance problems the way practitioners actually think about them.

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.

Time value of money, discounted cash flows, and risk-return tradeoffs all come down to applied math — exactly where Nikhil thrives. As a mathematics major at NYU with economics coursework, he connects financial formulas to the underlying logic so students can adapt to new problems on exams instead of relying on memorized shortcuts.

Maria approaches finance through the quantitative lens her Applied Mathematics background provides, breaking down concepts like time value of money, DCF analysis, and risk-return tradeoffs with real numerical rigor. She's particularly effective at walking through the math behind valuation models that trip up students who came to finance from a non-quantitative path.

Having passed the Society of Actuaries exams in both probabilistic analysis and financial mathematics, Andre tackles finance from a quantitative foundation that most tutors lack. He walks students through time value of money, bond pricing, and risk assessment with the precision those actuarial exams demand.

Marissa's academic background sits right at the intersection of accounting, finance, and business administration, which means she can explain concepts like time value of money, capital budgeting, and financial statement analysis with real numerical fluency. She walks through problems step by step, connecting formulas to the business logic behind them so students understand when to apply each tool. Her math strength makes the quantitative side of finance far less intimidating.

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.

Present value, risk-return tradeoffs, capital structure — finance is where economic theory meets real decision-making. Ryan's economics degree provides the quantitative and conceptual backbone these topics require, and he's comfortable walking through everything from time-value-of-money calculations to interpreting financial statements. He holds a 5.0 rating from students.

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.
