Hello, my name is Henry Evans, a finance major at Syracuse University's Whitman School of Management, Class of 2029. This past year I completed business calculus (MAT 284), introductory financial accounting (ACC 151), microeconomics, and business law, alongside coursework in finance fundamentals. I hold both Bloomberg certifications, BMC and BFF, earned through Whitman's Impress program. I'll be starting a summer internship as a market-making analyst at GTS Securities on Wall Street in July, which will keep my accounting and quantitative fundamentals sharp.
My teaching experience comes from peer academic support within Whitman and through my involvement in FCAP, the school's finance and capital markets organization. I've worked one-on-one with classmates throughout the academic year, primarily other college freshmen, helping them through financial accounting problem sets, business calculus homework, and Excel modeling in both informal library study sessions and scheduled one-on-one meetings. I also have five years of experience as a head server at a Thai restaurant, where I trained new servers from scratch, a role that taught me how to break down a complex process into manageable steps and how to read when someone is following along versus quietly confused. That same skill carries directly into tutoring.
My approach is problem-driven rather than lecture-driven. The most effective sessions I had with classmates started with their actual homework or exam topics, not a generic walkthrough. I work the problem alongside the student, pause when something doesn't click, and stay on that point until they can handle the next variation independently. I'd rather spend forty-five minutes on one concept that actually lands than rush through six that don't. I plan to tutor primarily in financial accounting, accounting, Excel, Bloomberg Terminal, business calculus and, pre-calculus subjects where I have either recent coursework completion or formal certification.
