Award-Winning Microeconomics Tutors
serving Youngstown, OH

Supply and demand curves are just the starting point — microeconomics gets interesting when students dig into elasticity, market structures, and game theory. Christopher's finance studies at Ohio State mean he tackles these concepts with real market examples, connecting abstract models to how firms actually price products and allocate resources.

An economics degree means Alexander has worked through the full micro toolkit — elasticity, game theory, surplus analysis — with enough depth to explain not just how the models work but why they're set up the way they are. He's especially sharp at connecting supply-and-demand intuition to the trickier intermediate topics where students start second-guessing themselves, like distinguishing between different market structures or tracing how a tax wedge redistributes surplus.

I'm looking forward to helping your student find personal success in their academic lives!

I'm a student at a small liberal arts college studying Economics and Environmental Studies. I currently tutor 9th-12th grade students at a local high school. I love math and science!

I'm a rising sophomore from Yale University. There I am studying to pursue a degree in either economics or computer science, and possibly both. I took the ACT a time or too and know my way around the exam, and I think I have a strong handle on the college admissions process.

I am currently a P1 pharmacy student. I have had numerous opportunities to tutor students of various ages primarily in subjects that pertain to my program of study, especially chemistry. Throughout my years of study, I have come to the realization that only after meticulous examination of all the possible scenarios and exceptions of a particular phenomenon can we recognize patterns that may have facilitated our initial attempt to understand it in the first place. As a tutor, I hope to serve as a guide that aids students in discerning such patterns and integrating concepts to achieve a thorough and holistic understanding of the subject being studied. Besides tutoring, I enjoy playing the piano and cello, biking, and reading.

I'm a senior at Indiana Wesleyan University, studying Economics, Political Science, and Humanities. I'm a student of the economic way of thinking and an aspiring teacher of the same, hopefully in a university setting someday. The economic way of thinking is valuable to anyone who will learn it and applies to everyday life.

I am a high school graduate currently attending Case Western Reserve University as a junior where I am double majoring in economics and physics. Although economics and physics are my majors, mathematics is my favourite subject. The reason I am tutoring is that I want to provide help in mathematics and other subjects which I did not have for myself when I was in high school. Not only do I want to tutor because I have a feeling it will be beneficial for students but I also enjoy teaching. Whenever I show teenagers something cool about physics or math, they seem to enjoy the subject more now that they know how it works and they also do better in their classes which is a great feeling for me and beneficial for the students. This friendly but passionate tutoring style is what will make the session enjoyable by both parties but also result in better grades. I also love sports(especially soccer and basketball), reading, writing and speedcubing.

I am a rising sophomore at Kenyon College, a small liberal arts school an hour out of Columbus, Ohio, majoring in Philosophy. It is difficult to identify a specialty of mine because I have worked with students from 1st grade through high school on topics ranging from elementary science to trigonometry test prep, but my foremost strength is the three sections of the SAT. I have roughly three years of experience tutoring and last year taught a test prep class. My approach to tutoring is to identify a students strengths and build upon them through frequent quizzes and reflective analysis. Additionally, having just gone through the college admissions process, I am privy to its length and complexity so can lend advice on anything, namely essays. I have plenty of experience writing and have been published in a local newspaper. While I think math is the easiest subject for me to teach, writing and writing skills are my favorite to teach because to see a writers progress is an extraordinary sight and, further, challenge.

Because Bailey studied economics at Duke — where the curriculum leans heavily on formal microeconomic modeling — she's worked through the full sequence: consumer and producer theory, elasticity, market structures, and the welfare analysis that ties them together. Her 3.94 GPA in that program signals she actually retained the mechanics, from setting up Lagrangians for constrained optimization to interpreting what happens graphically when a tax wedge enters a competitive market.

Most microeconomics courses lose students somewhere between indifference curves and game theory — the math feels disconnected from any decision a real person would make. Noel's public policy background lets him anchor every model in actual scenarios: why firms price-discriminate, how externalities justify a carbon tax, what happens to surplus when a city caps rent. That grounding turns problem sets from rote calculation into genuine analysis.

Consumer optimization, cost curves, and market structure problems all follow a logic that becomes predictable once you see the underlying math clearly. Marshall approaches microeconomics by walking through the calculus and graphical reasoning together, so students understand not just where the profit-maximizing quantity lands but why. His Northwestern economics training keeps the explanations rigorous without making them inaccessible.

Sami earned his economics and computer science degrees at Duke, then moved into management consulting and corporate finance before starting his MBA at Yale — so when he teaches concepts like profit maximization under different market structures or strategic pricing in oligopolies, he's drawing on decisions he's actually watched firms make. That blend of academic rigor and industry experience makes the leap from textbook models to problem-set application much smoother.

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.

A political science degree from Williams College means Noah studied how policy decisions ripple through markets — tax incidence, rent controls, minimum wage effects — where microeconomic models meet real-world trade-offs. He teaches students to trace the logic of those models, breaking down why a subsidy shifts a curve or how deadweight loss emerges, rather than treating graphs as shapes to memorize for an exam.

Supply-and-demand diagrams are easy until you hit consumer and producer surplus, deadweight loss from price controls, or the math behind profit maximization in different market structures. Rohan digs into the logic behind each model so students can derive answers rather than memorize curve shifts. His economics degree means he connects introductory micro concepts to the bigger analytical framework they feed into.

Introductory microeconomics is where Reed cut his teeth as a tutor — he served as a prefect and TA for Carleton College's micro courses, running both classroom sessions and one-on-one reviews. He digs into consumer and producer theory, cost curves, and market structures with an emphasis on connecting the graphs to the underlying math so each concept reinforces the other.

Marginal cost curves, consumer surplus, and game theory matrices can feel abstract until someone shows you the math driving each one. Rahi tackles microeconomics by walking through the calculus behind optimization — profit maximization, utility functions, price discrimination — so students can solve problems confidently instead of memorizing graph shapes.

An International Economics degree gives John a real-world framework for teaching microeconomic concepts like elasticity, market structures, and consumer choice theory — not just as textbook abstractions but as tools for analyzing actual markets. His legal training adds a practical edge when covering topics like externalities, regulation, and game theory, since he can walk through how these ideas play out in policy and case law.

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.

Supply and demand curves are just the starting point — the real challenge in microeconomics is applying optimization logic to consumer choice, firm behavior, and market structures. Darin's engineering background means he's comfortable walking through the calculus behind marginal analysis and showing students how each graph tells a precise quantitative story.
