I have extensive graduate training in economics, including advanced coursework in microeconomics, macroeconomics, and econometrics, alongside a Master’s degree in International and Applied Economics. This rigorous academic background provides me with a deep and intuitive grasp of mathematical concepts, which I use to help my students succeed. I have several years of experience teaching and tutoring across diverse settings, ranging from one-on-one sessions to in-person classroom instruction and online courses.

Throughout my career, I have taught English, economics, personal finance, and social studies to middle school, high school, undergraduate, and adult learners. This includes working with ESL/ESOL students and individuals who felt behind or lacked confidence in math-based subjects. My tutoring approach focuses on helping students understand concepts step by step, building intuition behind formulas, graphs, and models rather than relying on rote memorization.

In our sessions, I work through problems collaboratively, identify where confusion begins, and help students develop a clear, repeatable way to approach their exams and assignments. I aim to create a supportive, structured environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and gradually gain the confidence and independence needed to excel in precalculus, Calculus I, and undergraduate economics.
