Award-Winning Finance Tutors
serving Seattle, WA

Intensely curious, I am interested in STEM subjects and the liberal arts. I tutor to help you reach your educational goals and because it's immensely gratifying to see my students succeed.

Maria approaches finance through the quantitative lens her Applied Mathematics background provides, breaking down concepts like time value of money, DCF analysis, and risk-return tradeoffs with real numerical rigor. She's particularly effective at walking through the math behind valuation models that trip up students who came to finance from a non-quantitative path.

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.

Carl's economics degree from Uppsala University was concentrated in macroeconomics, which means he digs into finance from the system level down — interest rate mechanics, time value of money, portfolio risk, and how capital markets actually function. He connects textbook formulas like NPV and CAPM to real market behavior, making the quantitative side of finance intuitive rather than formulaic.

Conor earned his finance degree alongside his math degree at the University of Pittsburgh, so he tackles topics like discounted cash flow, portfolio theory, and capital structure with real mathematical fluency. He connects the formulas to the logic behind them, which makes valuation models and risk analysis click instead of feeling like rote plug-and-chug.

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.

As a finance major at Ohio State, Christopher doesn't just teach formulas like NPV and CAPM — he unpacks the logic behind them so students understand when and why each tool applies. Whether the topic is capital budgeting, risk-return tradeoffs, or reading a cash flow statement, he ties concepts back to actual business decisions. That grounding in practical application makes even the most formula-heavy chapters easier to internalize.

Time value of money, discounted cash flow, and capital structure decisions are concepts Idara uses in her actual career — she's spent years in the finance industry after completing her MS in Management Science & Engineering at Stanford. She unpacks formulas like NPV and IRR by connecting them to real investment decisions, making the math feel purposeful instead of arbitrary.

Having earned his B.A. in Finance from UGA, Jon studied the core curriculum — financial statement analysis, corporate valuation, and capital markets — firsthand rather than picking it up secondarily through adjacent fields. He teaches budgeting frameworks and ratio analysis by connecting each concept back to the accounting and statistics coursework that underpins them, giving students a clearer picture of how the pieces fit together.

As a finance major at UW-Madison, Connor digs into concepts like time value of money, discounted cash flows, and portfolio risk in his own coursework every week. He explains financial models by connecting the math to real decision-making — why a company chooses one capital structure over another, or how interest rate changes ripple through bond pricing.

Studying finance at the University of Illinois's College of Business, Jonathan unpacks concepts like time value of money, net present value, and basic portfolio theory with concrete, numbers-driven examples. He reads the Wall Street Journal daily, which means he can tie textbook formulas to what's actually happening in markets right now.

Joyce is finishing her Finance degree at Penn, which means concepts like DCF modeling, capital structure, and portfolio theory aren't abstract textbook topics for her — they're problems she works through weekly. She breaks down the math behind valuation and risk analysis so the formulas actually make intuitive sense.

Holding an MBA in Finance, Darien digs into the mechanics behind concepts like time value of money, capital budgeting, and portfolio risk rather than just walking through formulas. He connects each topic to real decision-making — why a company chooses debt over equity, or how discount rates change an investment's attractiveness. Students walk away understanding the reasoning that drives financial models, not just the spreadsheet outputs.

Few finance tutors can walk through discounted cash flow models, capital structure theory, and portfolio risk the way someone who actually built those models on Wall Street can. Frank spent his career as a research executive in finance before transitioning to teaching, and he brings that practitioner's lens to graduate-level topics like valuation, time value of money, and financial statement analysis.
