About Me

My name is Austin Maul, and I am the Outstanding Graduating Economics major of Arizona State University! I am a CRLA certified tutor and have been happily helping my peers achieve their academic goals since my second semester my freshman year of college when I became a TA (the only undergraduate TA in the Department of Economics, might I add) for ASU's Principles of micro- and macroeconomics courses. My approach to economics is far from the typical approach of professors to assign book reading and give boring lectures. Instead, I like to engage with my students in relevant and intriguing conversations that facilitate learning in a productive and FUN fashion! Economics is an extremely interesting and fun subject if taught correctly, and it is ESSENTIAL not only to your continued studies in academia, but also in the REAL WORLD! This is why I strive to provide the most entertaining, and in turn, the most productive learning experience possible. My methods have been proven over three years of being a student tutor, and I hope that I can continue this fulfilling job as much as possible beyond receiving my degree! I received a 4.0 GPA (or higher if you count A+'s) in college in the prestigious W.P. Carey School of Business, so I am very well versed in other business subjects in addition to Economics. I am also going to be attending law school starting in the Fall of 2017 and thus am a prolific writer, speaker, and logical thinker. I also have experience helping others in these areas, though not on the scale of my experience with economics and other business subjects. I am always happy to help in whatever way I can and cater to my students' specific needs. Beyond being a tutor, I personally believe I am one of the most interesting 22 year olds in the world. I am a huge Boston sports fan, and have seen in person the Red Sox win the World Series in 2013, the Bruins lose the Stanley Cup Final in 2013, and the Patriots win Super Bowl XLIX in 2015. In fact, I am probably the most famous person you know! I was a palm tree for Katy Perry in the Super bowl XLIX halftime show, and am personal friends with the famous "Left Shark!" I played tuba in the marching band from middle school and through college, am a student pilot (yes, for airplanes), and have been to nearly all 50 states, Canada, Mexico, and CHINA! I am a thrill and experience seeker who is committed to helping others also live their lives to the fullest. Tutoring best allows me to utilize my talents and abilities to teach this goal, which is why I love it so much. I hope to get to help as many students as possible succeed as a Varsity Tutor!

Q&A with Austin

My teaching philosophy is not a "one size fits all" approach. Indeed, it is to be as fluid as possible to provide my students with exactly what they need. I prefer to get to know my students on a personal level and incorporate their interests into our conversations and lectures about course material. This, in my opinion, facilities the most effective and efficient learning. I often ask for feedback and for my students to teach me, as this demonstrates that full learning and understanding is taking place. It is my job to provide the highest caliber service to my students, and I solicit their feedback and preferences to plan and execute my approach accordingly.
