About Peter


Bio

I think that in all range of study, from undergraduate courses to graduate studies to professional development, the instructor's focus tends to be overly content- or lecture-oriented at the expense of conceptual understanding. It has been my experience that as intimidating as the technical aspects of business and finance may seem, they actually follow lines of logic that tend to have parallels in a student's own experiences - though it takes more of an individualized effort to cultivate that....

I think that in all range of study, from undergraduate courses to graduate studies to professional development, the instructor's focus tends to be overly content- or lecture-oriented at the expense of conceptual understanding. It has been my experience that as intimidating as the technical aspects of business and finance may seem, they actually follow lines of logic that tend to have parallels in a student's own experiences - though it takes more of an individualized effort to cultivate that. This is a large part of what tutoring offers. Perhaps because both my parents were teachers, the tutoring process has always come natural to me. From tutoring South Boston grade school students while in high school, to tutoring finance peers at Babson, to tutoring MBA students while a professional, I have consistently returned to tutoring in one form or another.

I graduated from Babson College with a degree in Computational and Mathematical Finance and am currently working in acquisitions at a Boston-based real estate investment bank. I have studied and worked in depth with the tedium of these business and finance concepts while I have also tutored a number of people completely new to the concepts, so I am able to tailor an approach anywhere from advanced to complete beginner.

My undergraduate degree was in the math that underlies finance as well as the excel modeling involved in finance. My greatest career strength has proven to be designing and building excel models. For my past employer, one of Boston's largest financial firms, I created an excel model that is still in use. So too have I built several excel models in use at my current company. From VBA programming to the keyboard shortcuts to stochastic processes to valuation techniques to Add-ins such as @risk, I have an in depth knowledge of excel and have been tutoring students in it since I was an undergrad.

Knowledgeable and patient

I really enjoyed my tutoring session with Peter. First, he was extremely flexible and accommodating of my schedule when picking a time to meet. His tutoring style is organized and comprehensive. He explained the concepts to me in an easy way so I could understand them. He then walked me through my homework. Peter helped me a lot, and now I feel much more comfortable with the material

Excellent tutor, with very sound knowledge base, flexible style and completely reliable !

Peter taught me about calculating the WACC/ Capital budgeting, as a part of my MBA curriculum. I liked his highly professional approach, pro activeness, sound knowledge base and flexibility/availability. He helped me develop a good understanding of my complex assignment in a very short time. I would look forward to working with him.

Budgets management

I've had two sessions with Peter so far. He is punctual, flexible, and patient for someone like me who is a beginner in budget and financial management. He definitely understands what he is doing even with little or incomplete information from me, and you can tell he is talented in sharing his knowledge (which is not a common thing) very clearly and in a simple way for a beginner to understand. I am confident I will learn a lot from him and I look forward to future sessions.
