Patrick
Certified Accounting Tutor
Patrick
BA University of Pittsburgh-Pittsburgh Campus
7+ Years Tutoring

Patrick is finishing his accounting degree at the University of Pittsburgh, which means he's knee-deep in the same textbooks and problem sets his students are working through — from financial accounting through intermediate and cost accounting. That real-time familiarity with the material lets him pinpoint exactly where concepts like multi-step income statements or adjusting entries tend to break down and explain them in plain terms. Rated 4.7 by students.

Erik
Certified Accounting Tutor
Erik
BA Brigham Young University-Provo
8+ Years Tutoring

Debits and credits follow a logic that, once internalized, makes the rest of accounting fall into place — journal entries, T-accounts, adjusting entries, even full financial statement preparation. Erik's business training at BYU included accounting coursework, and he approaches the subject by anchoring every transaction to the accounting equation so students always know why the numbers balance.

Aubriana
BA Carthage College
4+ Years Tutoring

Interning at two major accounting firms — CLA and Forvis — gave Aubriana hands-on experience with audit procedures and tax preparation that most tutors can only reference from a textbook. She breaks down journal entries, T-accounts, and the full accounting cycle by connecting each concept to how real firms actually use them. Rated 5.0 by students.

Nadine
BA Macalester College
1+ Years Tutoring

Debits, credits, and the accounting equation can feel like arbitrary rules until someone explains the logic underneath. Nadine breaks down journal entries, T-accounts, and financial statement preparation by connecting each step back to what the numbers actually represent about a business's health. Her economics background gives her a big-picture perspective that makes topics like depreciation methods and adjusting entries easier to internalize.

Emina
BA Harvard University
16+ Years Tutoring

Most of Emina's teaching load sits in math, writing, and SAT prep — but her state teaching certification and business coursework mean she can break down the accounting cycle with the structured, step-by-step clarity of someone trained to teach systematically. She connects each ledger entry and financial statement line item back to the quantitative reasoning her students already use in algebra and statistics, which makes the logic of double-entry bookkeeping feel less foreign.

Asher
BA Pennsylvania State University-Penn State Berks
6+ Years Tutoring

Asher earned his Bachelor of Accountancy from Penn State with all 150 CPA-track credits completed in four years, plus two professional internships. He digs into the concepts that trip students up most — journal entries, adjusting entries, the full accounting cycle, and financial statement preparation — making the logic behind debits and credits click rather than feel like arbitrary rules.

Noah
BA University of Miami
5+ Years Tutoring

Noah's business economics degree required coursework across financial accounting, managerial accounting, and cost accounting — giving him a breadth that lets him match explanations to whichever course a student is actually taking. He connects accounting concepts to the broader economic decisions businesses face, like how cost behavior shapes pricing or how variance analysis informs budgeting. That business-side perspective makes the numbers feel purposeful instead of abstract.

Eric
Current Undergrad, Finance and Statistics New York University
1+ Years Tutoring

Studying finance and statistics at NYU means Eric encounters accounting principles from the other side — as the language businesses use to communicate financial health. That perspective lets him teach concepts like the accounting equation, income statements, and balance sheets by showing what the numbers mean in practice, not just how to record them. Rated 5.0 by students.

MS University of Rhode Island • BA University of Chicago
1+ Years Tutoring

Holding a Master of Science in Accounting, Sam digs into the logic behind debits and credits, journal entries, and financial statement preparation rather than treating them as rules to memorize.
