I have a double major in Economics and Statistics, and a minor in Mathematics from UC Berkeley. I've had over 10 years' experience working with college students and very much enjoy working in the subjects I tutor.

I've received and eventually provided extensive training and tutoring at UC Berkeley for the Athletic Study Center (located at the Caesar Chavez building) from 2008 until 2011. My perspective of education is complemented from being a workshop leader (discussion section instructor) for the Summer Bridge Program, where I designed my syllabus, graded tests, led lectures and proctored exams. All of my pupils have passed their classes, most with at least a B. I am very familiar with the course structures from many professors in the statistics and economics departments. From all these experience, I've accumulated many high quality examples and teaching materials that I have developed over the years.

Pre-college, and non UC Berkeley students are welcome to contact me.

Econ Concepts Click with Jason’s Help!

What really sets Jason apart was his firm grasp of economic concepts and his ability to explain any model or phenomenon thoroughly, even without prior notice. His explanations were often more detailed and comprehensive than my course lectures, which helped me develop a deep understanding of the material. When he was explaining the mechanisms behind the concepts, Jason created excellent visuals—color-coded and accurate graphs that showed the connections between each step. These visuals made complex ideas much easier to grasp. He also asked me questions and tweaked the details to test my understanding, making the learning process much more interactive. I was new to economics and often asked very basic questions, but Jason was always patient and supportive. When working on writing assignments, he helped me structure my response and clearly express my thoughts.

Superb tutor who identifies and encourages your strengths rather than focusing on your weaknesses

Jason is an exceptional tutor who truly helped me transform the way I approach challenging material in Macroeconomics. Even when I struggled to understand certain concepts, he consistently encouraged me to rely on reasoning rather than just pattern recognition. His patient guidance and ability to break down complex ideas made me more confident in problem-solving. I highly recommend Jason to anyone looking to develop a deeper understanding and approach learning with confidence.

Patient and knowledgeable

Jason can understand any assignment or material you bring him as if he had already done the work himself. He can explain the topic and break it down so even if you have very little understanding of a topic he will help you learn it.
