I am a quantitative economist with an M.A. in Economics (STEM-designated) from Hunter College and a B.S. in Mathematics and Religious Studies from Skidmore College. I specialize in college-level econometrics, macroeconomics, calculus, and statistics, working with students who want rigorous support in regression analysis, time-series econometrics, and macro theory, as well as those strengthening their math foundations for economics and finance.

At Hunter College, I tutor undergraduate students in econometrics, probability and distributions, and introductory time-series topics. I have also guided more advanced undergraduates through non-linear models and forecasting, helping them interpret results carefully and avoid common statistical pitfalls. Students come to me for exam preparation, homework and problem set help, and research project support in econometrics, macroeconomics, and applied finance.

My teaching style is structured, calm, and highly quantitative. I break complex derivations into clear steps, show how each assumption matters, and work through practice problems similar to what you'll see on exams and assignments. Whether you're struggling with your first econometrics or macro course, tackling advanced time-series topics, or reviewing calculus and statistics to keep up in economics, I'll meet you where you are and build a focused plan to improve your grades and confidence.

I also tutor using Python, Stata, and Linux for students who need help with statistical computing and data analysis in economics and finance.

Approved Subjects

Calculus

Calculus

I hold a B.S. in Mathematics and an M.A. in Economics (STEM-designated) from Hunter College, and I use calculus extensively in advanced economics and finance courses. My tutoring experience comes from applying single-variable and multivariable calculus in contexts like optimization, comparative statics, growth models, and dynamic macroeconomic analysis. I specialize in helping economics students see how limits, derivatives, and integrals show up in utility maximization, cost and profit functions, and macro models. At Hunter College, I tutor undergraduates in calculus for economics, helping them connect mathematical techniques to economic intuition. I'm a good fit if you're taking calculus as an economics or finance major and want to understand both the mechanics and the economic meaning of the math.
Econometrics

Econometrics

I served as a Department Tutor at Hunter College for two years, providing one-on-one instruction in macroeconomics and econometrics to undergraduate students ages 18-22. I hold a Master's degree in Economics with advanced coursework in economic theory, quantitative methods, and statistical modeling using Python. As a department tutor, I led review sessions, graded assignments, and helped students master econometric concepts and Python programming for regression analysis. My students consistently improved their grades and exam performance, and I specialize in making abstract economic models and statistical techniques accessible to learners at all levels.
Finance

Finance

I am a quantitative economist with an M.A. in Economics (STEM-designated) from Hunter College and a B.S. in Mathematics, with a focus on financial markets, risk, and investment analysis. My academic and research work has centered on topics like volatility forecasting, risk modeling, futures markets, and derivatives pricing, giving me a strong foundation in how financial instruments behave in practice. I tutor students in core finance courses covering time value of money, discounting and valuation, portfolio risk and return, the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), and capital market intuition. I focus on making formulas and models feel intuitive by tying them back to real-world market behavior and the kinds of decisions investors and risk managers actually face. Whether you're preparing for exams or working on valuation projects, I can help you connect the math to market reality.
Macroeconomics

Macroeconomics

I am a quantitative economist with an M.A. in Economics (STEM-designated) from Hunter College and a B.S. in Mathematics, with a strong focus on macroeconomics and financial markets. My graduate research involved macro-financial topics like volatility, crisis periods, and liquidity risk, so I'm comfortable connecting textbook macro ideas to real-world events and policy debates. I tutor students in core macroeconomics courses covering GDP measurement, inflation and unemployment, monetary and fiscal policy, open-economy topics like exchange rates, and long-run growth models including Solow and Romer. In our sessions, I use clear diagrams, step-by-step algebra, and plain-language explanations so that the logic of each model and result is easy to follow. I can help you build intuition for how the macroeconomy fits together.

Kind and understanding of High School student pressures

Lukas is an exceptional macroeconomics tutor with deep expertise. During our first consultation, he immediately identified where Matilda is struggling - supply and demand concepts and fiscal vs. monetary policy - and explained both with clarity. What stood out was his diagnostic approach. He didn't just say he could help - he outlined exactly what Matilda needs to work on and proposed a concrete plan (weekly sessions for a month). He also validated that these concepts are notoriously difficult, which was reassuring. Both my daughter and I were really impressed. Matilda said she feels much more confident now, and I'm grateful to have found someone who genuinely cares about student success while having real-world expertise. Highly recommend for anyone needing macroeconomics support!
