Few finance tutors can draw on both a Duke economics and computer science background and hands-on experience at a Fortune 500 company. Sami breaks down concepts like discounted cash flow, capital structure, and risk-return tradeoffs by grounding them in the real corporate decisions he's encountered in consulting and in his Yale MBA coursework.

Running a startup means David lives finance daily — building cash flow projections, valuing equity, and weighing capital structure decisions in real time. His UChicago MBA gave him the theoretical framework, but it's the hands-on work with DCF models, ratio analysis, and funding rounds that makes his explanations concrete and grounded.
Time value of money, capital budgeting, and risk-return tradeoffs aren't just textbook exercises for Benjamin — they were core to his Finance degree at Notre Dame. He connects formulas like NPV and IRR to real decision-making scenarios so the math carries meaning beyond the problem set. Rated 5.0 by students.
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.
A PhD in management gives Andrew a strong grasp of financial concepts like time value of money, capital budgeting, and risk-return tradeoffs. He breaks down quantitative problems step by step while connecting them to the broader business decisions they inform.
Present value, risk-return tradeoffs, capital structure — finance is where economic theory meets real decision-making.

He holds a 5.0 rating from students.
Time value of money, net present value, and capital budgeting all rely on the same core math — but finance courses layer on terminology that can obscure the underlying calculations. Rahi's triple engineering background means he's comfortable with the quantitative side and can quickly show students how to set up cash flow diagrams, discount rates, and amortization schedules from scratch.
Time value of money, DCF analysis, capital structure — Vignesh isn't just studying these concepts, he's living them as a finance major at the University of Georgia. That proximity to the coursework means he knows exactly which formulas professors emphasize and where students typically lose points on problem sets. He breaks down financial modeling step by step so the logic behind each calculation is clear.
Time value of money, net present value, and portfolio risk calculations are ultimately math problems dressed in business language.

He connects each formula to the financial decision it's designed to answer.
I love helping students in topics related to math, to finance (public and private equity) and to engineering. I believe that if I can't explain concept, then I don't understand it. By that same token, if a student can't explain a concept back to me, then they don't understand it even if they say they do. I believe in getting to know all students, as their background is intricately connected with how they learn.

Michael's dual background in mathematics and finance means he doesn't just teach formulas like time value of money or CAPM — he unpacks the quantitative logic underneath them. From discounted cash flow analysis to portfolio risk calculations, he connects each concept to both the math and the real-world decision it informs.
Political science trained Reid to think about how institutions, incentives, and policy shape economic outcomes — a lens that translates well to finance topics like risk assessment, time value of money, and capital allocation. He approaches financial concepts methodically, breaking formulas into the logic behind them rather than treating them as black boxes.
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.
Two MBA programs — UCLA Anderson and London Business School — with a concentration in finance and investments gave Albert deep fluency in DCF modeling, capital structure theory, and portfolio analysis. He unpacks concepts like WACC, option pricing, and risk-return tradeoffs by tying them to real market scenarios rather than leaving them as textbook formulas.
Andrew teaches finance as an adjunct professor, which means he's constantly explaining time value of money, capital budgeting, and risk-return tradeoffs to students encountering them for the first time. His engineering background adds a quantitative rigor that's especially useful when students hit DCF models or weighted average cost of capital calculations. Rated 4.8 by students.
Three decades of market research for private clients gives Stephen a practitioner's grasp of financial concepts — from discounted cash flow and capital budgeting to portfolio risk analysis.
