About Elisa


Bio

Hi, I'm Chao! My path into finance started with a bachelor's degree in Accounting and a master's in Finance, and along the way I earned the Financial Risk Manager (FRM) certification and cleared CFA Level II. I spent about three years at PwC early in my career, and I've worked as a business consultant ever since. On a different note, I'm also a native Chinese speaker, and I love sharing the language along with the culture behind it.

Hi, I'm Chao! My path into finance started with a bachelor's degree in Accounting and a master's in Finance, and along the way I earned the Financial Risk Manager (FRM) certification and cleared CFA Level II. I spent about three years at PwC early in my career, and I've worked as a business consultant ever since. On a different note, I'm also a native Chinese speaker, and I love sharing the language along with the culture behind it.

I tutor business, financial accounting, CFA/FRM exam prep, and Chinese, and I adjust my approach depending on who I'm working with. With college students preparing for CFA and FRM, I focus on turning dense theory into clear knowledge frameworks, then work through the toughest problems together. With working professionals, I teach QuickBooks and financial accounting basics for small business owners and finance staff who need practical, immediately usable skills for managing their books, and I share practical best practices for streamlining and organizing their day-to-day workflow.

Most of my sessions are one-on-one, in person and online, so I can really meet students where they are. I love the moment a hard concept finally makes sense, and I'd be glad to help you get there too. Feel free to reach out and tell me your goals!
