I recently earned an International MBA and a Master of Science in Finance from Florida International University (GPA 3.86), after completing a dual BBA in International Business & Finance (GPA 3.94, summa cum laude). I've passed Level I of the CFA® exam, the SIE, Bloomberg Market Concepts course, and Harvard Business School Publishing's certifications in spreadsheet modeling and quantitative methods. I was honored with a Distinguished Engagement Award for founding my university's premier business podcast, where I interviewed faculty experts and introduced multifaceted economic ideas through clear, accessible conversations for broad audiences (a skill I bring directly into the classroom).

I began tutoring in 2022 while finishing my undergraduate program and continued through my masters. Since joining WyzAnt, I've worked with students from across the country (undergraduates, graduate students, and MBA/MSF candidates) and from a wide range of institutions and programs.

My subject focus includes corporate finance, derivatives and options pricing, fixed income, financial and managerial accounting, statistics, macroeconomics, and Excel-based financial modeling. My preferred practices include creating tailored study guides and practice problems in valuation, forecasting, and financial statement analysis. I use Excel as my primary teaching platform, building step-by-step models that are easy to revisit. I supplement this with an iPad and virtual whiteboard for interactive walkthroughs, and design lessons to reinforce key concepts.

My approach is grounded in higher-education practice: over the years I've worked with a wide range of syllabi, rubrics, and exams and ask students to share theirs in advance. I'm proficient with the TI-84 and BA II Plus calculators and walk through TVM, NPV/IRR, and amortization workflows keystroke by keystroke when needed (with a virtual calculator on screen). In a free introductory session, we review those materials, align goals, and set expectations.

Reviews

Patient, Flexible, and Incredibly Helpful.

Jayson was an amazing tutor throughout my MBA Corporate Financial Management class. He helped me work through a wide range of finance concepts, including NPV calculations, cost of capital, WACC, capital budgeting, valuation methods, risk and return analysis, and discounted cash flow modeling. He helped me navigate the technical side of the course using both Excel and the TI-84, which made a huge difference during assignments and exam prep. Jayson was consistently responsive, flexible, kind, and extremely patient with me, even when I needed concepts explained multiple times. What I appreciated most was his ability to explain difficult material in different ways until it finally clicked. You can tell he genuinely cares about helping students learn and succeed, and I honestly would not have felt nearly as confident in the class without his support. highly recommend him to anyone looking for support in finance coursework!

Highly Recommend Jayson

I highly recommend Jayson to anyone looking for support in Intermediate Macro and Personal Finance. He has a strong ability to take complex economic concepts and break them down into clear, practical explanations that actually connect to real-world situations Jayson is knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely invested in his students’ success. If you’re looking for a tutor who can simplify difficult material and help you apply it effectively, I would absolutely recommend working with him.

My Experience

I came into these sessions honestly knowing nothing, and he completely turned that around. He taught me everything step by step and made sure I actually understood the material, not just memorized it. He’s extremely understanding and patient, which made it easy to ask questions and not feel stressed. He’s also very organized and always punctual, so every session felt productive and well-structured. I’d highly recommend him to anyone who needs a tutor that genuinely cares and knows how to teach.

Organized and Prepared Tutor

Jayson was always prepared and very flexible. He met with me any time from early in the morning to late at night. He walked me through excel modeling and taught me step by step. He took the time to review the study materials before our lesson so we could get started from minute 1. Some concepts were more difficult for me to grasp, and he was very understanding of that. Overall, could not have asked for a better tutor! Best investment I have made!

Great tutor

Great communication, walks through everything thoroughly to ensure understanding for not just the problem but concept overall. Prepared for each meeting and helped me study for my investments exam.

Exceptional Tutor — Highly Recommend

Jayson has been absolutely incredible from start to finish in every session, and I can’t recommend him enough. I came in feeling frustrated and confused by the course material, and he has consistently made everything so much easier to understand with his organized approach. He’s truly dedicated to helping his students succeed, and it shows. He’s helped me understand so much of the course content, and I know I can rely on him — even at a moment’s notice. I leave every session feeling more capable, supported, and prepared. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, book Jayson. He’s exactly what I hoped to find in a tutor, and I’m grateful to keep learning with his guidance. Thank you, Jayson!

Great teaching style

Financial 301 college student. After the first class, I asked my daughter how her class went and she said excellent and had already booked her next class. She says Jayson is excellent at teaching, she enjoys his style and is learning well. I reached out to Jayson to write him a review as we are truly happy. I’m glad I found him! Very accommodating too!
