Award-Winning Economics Tutors
serving Arlington, VA

Monetary policy, banking systems, and market behavior aren't abstractions to Cole — they were the focus of his cum laude master's thesis at the University of Amsterdam. He teaches economics by grounding theory in current events, so students see how supply-and-demand diagrams or GDP calculations connect to headlines they've actually read. Rated 5.0 by students.

Co-authoring a published policy article for US News and World Report required Gary to translate economic data into clear, defensible arguments — exactly the skill economics courses demand. He tackles supply-and-demand analysis, market structures, and cost-benefit reasoning by grounding each concept in the political and policy contexts where these ideas actually get applied.

As an economics major at the University of Virginia, Azam is working through the same curriculum his students are tackling — demand and supply models, market structures, GDP accounting — which means the material is fresh and the common stumbling points are still vivid. He pairs that coursework with real tutoring experience through UVA's Day in the Life program, where he learned to adapt explanations on the fly rather than defaulting to textbook language.

Jessica's International Studies degree from the University of Richmond, paired with minors in Economics and Latin American and Iberian Studies, means she learned economic concepts through a global lens — trade relationships, currency dynamics, and how developing economies actually function on the ground. Time working in Spain and Brazil gave her firsthand exposure to the macroeconomic forces that most students only encounter as textbook diagrams.

Andrea's literature background might seem like an unlikely fit for economics, but her training in close reading and argument analysis translates directly to parsing the kind of dense, claim-heavy passages that show up in economics textbooks and policy debates. Her ESL teaching experience also means she's practiced at breaking down unfamiliar terminology — a skill that pays off when students hit jargon-heavy topics like elasticity, comparative advantage, or fiscal multipliers for the first time.

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.

Studying economics and legal studies at Penn means Ethan lives inside the overlap between market forces and the rules that shape them — how antitrust law changes competitive dynamics, or why regulatory frameworks matter as much as supply curves. That legal dimension gives him a useful angle for explaining topics like market failures and government intervention, where the textbook model and the real-world outcome don't always match up. His 35 ACT speaks to the kind of analytical sharpness that translates well into breaking down econ problem sets.

Supply and demand curves seem simple until you have to use them to predict what happens after a tax, a price ceiling, or a shift in consumer expectations. Dana approaches economics as applied logic rather than memorization, connecting each concept to real-world policy questions she studied extensively during her public policy coursework. Her 36 ACT reflects the same analytical precision she brings to economic reasoning.

Three economics degrees deep, Simon lives in supply-and-demand curves, GDP models, and game theory the way most people live in their native language. He unpacks concepts like elasticity, monetary policy, and market equilibrium by tying them to real headlines — tariff debates, Federal Reserve decisions, housing markets — so the math and the intuition reinforce each other.

Clive is currently studying economics at Brown, where he's immersed in everything from microeconomic theory and market structures to macroeconomic policy and econometric modeling. That active coursework means he knows exactly which concepts — opportunity cost, elasticity, game theory, aggregate demand — tend to trip students up and how current professors frame them.

Joshua earned his bachelor's in Economics and International Studies, which means he learned economic concepts — trade theory, exchange rates, development policy — through the lens of how they actually shape relationships between countries. That global perspective is especially useful for students who need to connect microeconomic and macroeconomic models to the messy reality of international markets and policy decisions.

I am currently working in a Bronx Public School as a teaching apprentice in Algebra. I have four years of experience tutoring one on one with students of all ages.

Public policy analysis at the University of Chicago meant Noel spent his undergraduate years dissecting how economic principles — budget trade-offs, incentive design, cost-benefit frameworks — actually drive government decisions. That training makes him especially sharp on the macro side of economics, where fiscal policy and public spending aren't abstract textbook topics but the real-world problems he studied daily. Rated 4.9 by his students.

Matt's undergraduate economics degree gives him genuine fluency with the core material — supply and demand mechanics, market structures, opportunity cost — while his theatre and acting training means he knows how to make a dry lecture on GDP or fiscal policy feel like a conversation worth having. A 34 ACT composite speaks to the kind of analytical sharpness that keeps explanations tight and precise, especially when students need to connect graphs to the economic reasoning behind them.

Carter earned his economics degree at Brown and then taught game theory to advanced middle school students at a Johns Hopkins CTY program in Hong Kong — so he knows how to make concepts like Nash equilibria, marginal analysis, and market structures click for learners at very different levels. He connects economic models to real decisions rather than leaving them as abstract graphs. His approach digs into the intuition behind supply-and-demand shifts, elasticity, and welfare analysis so the math and the logic reinforce each other.

With an economics degree and a 5.0 client rating, Ryan brings both academic grounding and clear communication to topics like elasticity, market failures, and the mechanics of supply-and-demand shifts. He also teaches finance and accounting, which means he can show students how microeconomic reasoning actually translates into business decisions — making abstract models feel like practical tools rather than exam fodder.

Noah's political science background at Penn gave him serious exposure to economic policy — trade theory, fiscal policy debates, and how markets interact with government institutions. He teaches economics as a way of thinking about tradeoffs and incentives, connecting supply-and-demand models to real policy questions students actually care about.
