I am excited to be working with Varsity Tutors. I currently teach middle and high school social studies at Bishop Dunne Catholic School in Dallas. I teach 8th Grade US History, Spanish 3, AP Microeconomics, and Economics. I also have experience tutoring middle school Math while in college.

As an economics major at the University of Oklahoma, Joseph is immersed in supply-and-demand models, market structures, and macroeconomic policy every day — not just tutoring them from memory. He unpacks concepts like elasticity and comparative advantage using real-world examples that make the graphs and equations click, rather than leaving students to wrestle with abstract curves on their own.
As a Finance major at Boston College, Andy engages with economic theory daily — from GDP and inflation to trade policy and market structures. He unpacks concepts like supply-and-demand equilibrium and opportunity cost by tying them to real headlines and business decisions, making the logic behind economic models click rather than feel abstract.
Matt's finance degree means he learned economics not as an isolated academic subject but as the engine behind investment decisions, corporate strategy, and market behavior — so when he teaches concepts like elasticity or market structures, he can show students where the theory actually lands. His SAT score of 1530 also signals the kind of sharp analytical reading that economics coursework demands, especially when students need to interpret dense graphs or parse tricky problem setups.
Studying economics and finance at Wharton means Samica encounters micro and macroeconomic theory daily — supply and demand curves, market structures, GDP modeling — and can translate those concepts into clear, intuitive explanations. She connects abstract ideas like elasticity or comparative advantage to real-world business cases, which makes the material stick far better than rote definition review.
As a Cornell economics major, Tameem is still immersed in the coursework — working through the same models, problem sets, and exam formats that students are currently facing. That proximity to the material makes him particularly sharp on the foundational concepts that drive intro and high school economics, like how shifts in aggregate demand connect to unemployment and inflation or why price elasticity changes a firm's revenue strategy.
Rithi's quantitative backbone — a neuroscience degree, a master's in biotechnology, and deep coursework in statistics and calculus — means she can tackle the math-heavy side of economics that often catches students off guard, like working through elasticity calculations, interpreting cost curves, or setting up optimization problems. Her 4.9 rating speaks to an ability to make that quantitative reasoning feel approachable even for students who came in expecting a purely conceptual course.
Harvard's Public Policy curriculum gave Alyssa a rigorous grounding in micro and macroeconomic theory — supply and demand modeling, market failures, fiscal policy analysis — that she now breaks down for students tackling college-level econ. She connects abstract concepts like elasticity and comparative advantage to real policy debates, making the material click rather than just survive on a formula sheet.
Supply and demand curves are easy enough to draw — the hard part is understanding elasticity, equilibrium shifts, and what happens when you layer in government intervention. Conor's dual background in mathematics and finance from the University of Pittsburgh means he can walk through both the graphical intuition and the underlying algebra that drives economic models.
Studying both History and Economics at Harvard, Finley tackles economics the way it actually works — as a discipline shaped by real-world policy decisions and historical context. He breaks down concepts like supply-and-demand elasticity, market structures, and game theory by grounding them in concrete examples rather than abstract graphs alone. Rated 5.0 by students.
Dylan's undergraduate degree in Policy Analysis and Management required working through the economic frameworks that underpin real policy decisions — microeconomic reasoning about incentives, cost-benefit trade-offs, and how markets respond to regulation. His additional coursework in econometrics and AP Microeconomics means he can move fluidly between the intuitive side of economics and the quantitative tools students need to actually model outcomes.
Supply and demand diagrams are just the entry point — JF digs into the reasoning behind elasticity, comparative advantage, and market equilibrium so that students can tackle unfamiliar problems without relying on memorized setups. His dual math and computer science training at Stanford gives him a quantitative edge when explaining concepts like marginal analysis and cost curves.
Supply and demand curves are simple enough on the surface, but economics gets tricky fast once students hit elasticity, market structures, or macroeconomic models. Emma minored in economics at Harvard, so she can unpack concepts like comparative advantage or fiscal policy with real-world examples that make the math and the theory click together. She holds a 5.0 client rating.
After spending years on Wall Street analyzing markets, industries, and financial data as a research executive, Frank brings an insider's understanding of how macroeconomic forces — interest rates, inflation, trade dynamics — actually ripple through real institutions. His MBA sharpens that perspective, letting him connect textbook models of supply, demand, and market structure to the strategic decisions he made professionally.

Frequently Asked Questions
Economics requires students to think abstractly about systems, incentives, and trade-offs—concepts that don't always feel intuitive at first. Many students struggle with understanding supply and demand curves, opportunity cost, and how individual decisions create broader market effects. Personalized tutoring helps break down these complex relationships into digestible pieces, allowing students to build confidence before moving to more advanced topics like elasticity, macroeconomic policy, or international trade.
In a classroom setting with a 20.8:1 student-teacher ratio, it's difficult for instructors to address each student's specific learning gaps or pace. Personalized tutoring allows a tutor to identify whether a student struggles with graphing, conceptual understanding, or problem-solving—and adjust accordingly. This targeted approach means students spend less time on material they've mastered and more time on areas that need reinforcement, leading to faster progress and deeper comprehension.
Tulsa's 14 school districts follow Oklahoma's academic standards for Economics, which typically include courses in microeconomics, macroeconomics, personal finance, and sometimes AP Economics. Whether your student is in high school Economics, AP Micro/Macro, or college-level coursework, tutors can align instruction with your school's specific curriculum and pacing. This ensures practice problems, examples, and exam prep directly support what's being taught in class.
The first session is focused on assessment and goal-setting. A tutor will discuss your student's current understanding of Economics concepts, identify specific challenges (like reading graphs or understanding elasticity), and learn about upcoming tests or assignments. From there, the tutor creates a personalized plan that targets weak areas while building on strengths, ensuring every session moves your student closer to their goals.
AP Economics exams (both Micro and Macro) require students to not only understand concepts but apply them to real-world scenarios and interpret data. Tutors help students practice free-response questions, multiple-choice strategies, and graph analysis—the skills that actually appear on test day. With focused preparation, students develop the confidence and speed needed to perform well, whether they're aiming for a 3 or a 5.
Beyond test scores, Economics tutoring builds critical thinking skills that apply far beyond the classroom. Students learn to analyze incentives, evaluate trade-offs, and understand how decisions affect markets and society. These analytical skills help with everything from personal financial decisions to understanding current events—making Economics one of the most practically useful subjects students can study.
Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors who have strong backgrounds in Economics—whether through advanced degrees, teaching experience, or demonstrated expertise in the subject. Tutors are vetted for subject knowledge and teaching ability, ensuring they can explain complex concepts clearly and adapt their approach to each student's learning style. You can discuss a tutor's specific background and experience before your first session.
Many students see meaningful improvement within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, especially when addressing specific gaps like understanding graphs or mastering particular concepts. However, the timeline depends on where a student is starting and their goals—test prep might require more intensive sessions closer to exam day, while building foundational understanding takes a bit longer. Regular tutoring combined with practice between sessions accelerates progress significantly.
