As an economics major at Dartmouth, Eric studies microeconomic models — game theory, firm pricing strategies, consumer optimization — with the formal rigor of a top program, not just a survey-level overview. His strong quantitative background (1520 SAT, heavy calculus coursework) means he can walk through the math behind indifference curves or profit maximization while keeping the economic intuition front and center. Rated 5.0 by students.

David's sociology research at Columbia and Chicago trained him to model how individuals make decisions under constraints — which is exactly what microeconomics formalizes with utility functions, budget lines, and optimization problems. His computer science background adds fluency with the quantitative side, from setting up cost minimization equations to interpreting the slopes of indifference curves. Rated 4.9 by students.
Supply and demand curves are just the entry point — the real challenge in microeconomics is applying them to problems involving market structures, consumer choice, and externalities. Adi's economics training means he can walk through the intuition behind utility maximization or Nash equilibrium without losing students in the math, or without skipping it entirely.
Hi y'all! I hold my Master of Science in Psychology of Sport and my Bachelor of Science in both Psychology and Applied Human and Sport Physiology. I have many years of tutoring under my belt, working with people of all levels from elementary school through college in hard science subjects (Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics), a few social sciences (History, Psychology, Economics), and language arts. When not tutoring, I love playing soccer and I even coach a youth team. I love encouraging students to learn, grow, and think critically for themselves.
Duy's economics degree means he didn't just pass through micro — he studied the formal models of consumer behavior, firm strategy, and market structure that most students encounter for the first time and find abstract. His rhetoric training adds an unexpected edge: he teaches students to argue through economic reasoning verbally, which is exactly what short-answer and essay-based econ exams demand. That combination of analytical depth and clear communication earned him a 34 ACT composite.
I am qualified to tutor many subjects, my favorite subject by far is math, specifically calculus. Math is a subject almost universally hated, and I believe that is mainly due to the narrow way in which it is taught. I have ADHD, and I often don't understand things the first time they are explained to me, meaning over the years I have had to figure out different ways of looking at information. Oftentimes, all a student needs is for something to be explained in a different way, and I love watching people finally understand a concept. Everyone learns differently, but everyone can learn.
Environmental statistics — Alex's concentration at Rice — is fundamentally about modeling how variables interact under constraints, the same quantitative thinking that drives microeconomic analysis of supply, demand, and resource allocation. His geography training adds a spatial dimension that's surprisingly useful for understanding topics like land markets, location-based pricing, and how regional factors shape firm behavior.
The leap from understanding basic supply and demand to tackling consumer optimization, production functions, and market structure trips up a lot of students. Chikaneme's economics degree from Johns Hopkins means he can unpack concepts like marginal utility, price elasticity, and Nash equilibrium with real precision — showing not just how to solve the problem but why the math represents actual decision-making. He holds a 5.0 rating across his students.
Computer science at Columbia means Jeremy spends most of his time on optimization and decision logic — skills that map cleanly onto microeconomic problems like constrained utility maximization and how firms choose output levels under different market structures. His perfect 1600 SAT reflects the kind of precise, systematic reasoning that keeps the math and the economic intuition connected when students are working through elasticity calculations or game theory setups.
I am a graduate of Barnard College, Columbia University where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and Economics. My academic interests while at Barnard were focused on microeconomics and statistical research. I am a believer that a strong education can propel you to achieve your goals. I think that anyone can learn math and logical thinking with a little help. I have experience tutoring high school students in Algebra I and was always helping my fellow classmates with their economics problem sets in college. While working professionally, my job demanded strong technical skills in data programming. Each year, I taught my coworkers the necessary programming skills both through classroom setting lectures and through one-on-one tutoring. In my free time I love going to spin class, learning how to cook, and watching MSNBC!
Elasticity, consumer surplus, and the behavior of firms under perfect competition versus monopoly power — microeconomics asks students to think precisely about how individuals and markets make decisions. David tackles these topics by building up from core intuitions about scarcity and trade-offs, leveraging his economics coursework at Clemson to make the math behind the models feel purposeful.
Classics majors spend years dissecting how ancient societies organized trade, taxation, and resource allocation — the same questions microeconomics answers with formal models. Wyatt applies that historical intuition to concepts like supply and demand, market structures, and government intervention, giving students a narrative thread through material that can otherwise feel like disconnected graphs. He holds a 5.0 rating from students.
Supply curves, marginal cost, and market structures like monopolistic competition can feel like a blur of overlapping graphs if nobody explains the intuition behind them. Tanner approaches micro through the lens of an actual entrepreneur — someone who's priced products, evaluated costs, and watched consumer behavior firsthand across three startups. That real-world grounding makes abstract models concrete.
Elasticity, marginal utility, and market structures each require a slightly different way of thinking, which is where most intro micro students get tripped up. Lee walks through each concept with concrete examples — pricing decisions, consumer trade-offs, cost curves — so students can reason through problems instead of memorizing graph shapes.
I am a avid sports fans: Go Cowboys!

Supply and demand curves are just the starting point — Hari digs into elasticity, marginal utility, and market structures like oligopoly and monopolistic competition to show how firms actually make pricing decisions. His MBA in Finance gives him real-world context for concepts like cost curves and profit maximization that textbooks often present too abstractly. Rated 5.0 by students.
From elasticity calculations to the nuances of monopolistic competition, microeconomics requires students to think graphically and verbally at the same time. David breaks down each market structure by walking through the firm's decision-making process step by step — where marginal cost meets marginal revenue, why profits shrink in the long run, and what happens when assumptions change. His entrepreneurship background means these aren't hypothetical firms to him.
Pursuing a PhD in economics means Jacob isn't just passing through microeconomics — he's building a career on it, with the mathematical rigor from his joint math studies to back it up. He teaches students to think through models like a researcher would, connecting the intuition behind consumer choice or firm behavior to the calculus that formalizes it. Rated 5.0 by students.
Marginal cost curves, consumer surplus, and Cournot competition all demand comfort with derivatives and optimization — skills Romeo has sharpened through years of advanced mathematics study. He teaches microeconomics by making the math transparent: once a student can set up and solve the constrained optimization problem, the economic intuition follows naturally.
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.
Being inside Michigan Ross's BBA program means Kerry encounters microeconomic thinking in nearly every class — how firms decide what to produce, why pricing strategies differ across market structures, and what drives consumer decision-making under scarcity. That daily immersion in business case analysis gives her a way of teaching concepts like elasticity and profit maximization that's grounded in how companies actually behave, not just how curves shift on a whiteboard.
Andrew's Labor and Industrial Relations degree at Cornell covers significant microeconomic ground — labor markets, wage determination, firm behavior under different bargaining structures — giving him a practical lens on concepts like supply and demand, market power, and efficiency. He teaches students to think through how incentives shape decisions at the individual and firm level, grounding abstract models in the kind of real-world labor and industry examples that make the logic click. Rated 4.9 by students.
Elasticity, marginal utility, and market structures like oligopoly and monopolistic competition each require a different way of thinking — and Grant's economics degree gave him deep fluency with all of them. He breaks down consumer and producer theory using concrete examples, making the graphs and equations feel like tools rather than obstacles.
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.
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 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.
Marginal cost curves and consumer surplus diagrams start making sense once someone explains the decision-making logic underneath them. Jay approaches microeconomics from his background as an econ major, unpacking topics like market failures, production functions, and elasticity by first asking what a rational actor would actually do in a given scenario — then showing how the math and graphs formalize that reasoning.
