About Me

Hello! I'm Alexander Kim, your tutor for economics. For 7+ years, I've been teaching students economics and now I'm teaching at the College of Wooster. My goal is simple: helping students turn "huh?" into "aha!" I plan to make Micro, Macro, and Econometrics clear, useful, and fun. We'll learn by doing: tiny problems (a lemonade stand for supply & demand, Netflix pricing for market power), quick checks for understanding, and step-by-step feedback. This "active learning" and "retrieval practice" style helps students remember more and score higher. We'll also connect class to real life. Want to see the economy move? We'll graph live data in FRED (St. Louis Fed) and pull examples from trusted news like The Economist or Ground News. I'm writing a paper on monopoly and innovation, so you might also meet ideas from Nobel prize laureates like Joseph Schumpeter's "creative destruction." Ready for clear steps and friendly coaching? Let's get you to your next "I get it!" moment.
