Hello, I’m David! I have a Bachelors of Arts in Economics and a Masters of Science in Finance, both from Brandeis University. As an undergraduate I excelled in Economics and was selected as a teaching assistant for Public Sector Economics, a very difficult high-level class. As a teaching assistant I helped dozens of students with the challenging course material, particularly before exams. After graduating I have accumulated hundreds of hours of experience tutoring students, primarily in one-on-one online settings on other tutoring platforms. I specialize in economics and finance, but can also answer general questions about excel, since it is used so heavily in those disciplines.

My approach is personalized and student centered. During our time together I will assess your level of knowledge and adjust the difficulty of the material to present an appropriate learning curve. My approach to teaching is to break the material up into digestible units, moving forward with each one only after it is clear that you have gained a comprehensive understanding of the material. I find that this reduces stress and anxiety in my students. Whether you are hung up on the broader concepts, critical details, or the mathematical minutia, we will find a way forward together!

Whether you are a high school student, traditional college student, or an adult learner, I have experience working with and helping people just like you! I am very adaptable and have worked with students from many different academic backgrounds and situations, including ESL students, dyscalculic students, as well as precocious high school students.

Please send details of what we will be working on before the session, and your general background on the topic. Feel free to reach out to discuss how I can help you meet your academic goals!

One of the best tutors I have ever had,

I was panicking before I worked with David B. I was taking a high level class, but with his assistance I learned to interpret complex data in just a couple days. David is one of the best tutors I have ever had!! He provides a service worth far more than what he charges. If you ever have a chance to have a session with David, do it.

Reflection on What Helped Me Most in Accounting This Semester

David has been incredibly helpful throughout my Financial Accounting work. His explanations of the accounting equation, debits and credits, and early‑chapter concepts are clear and steady, making the material much easier to understand. He’s patient, organized, and genuinely committed to helping students build confidence in the subject.

Great teacher, very patient

I had a great experience working with David, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a tutor who is both effective and supportive. From the start, David created a focused and comfortable learning environment. He took the time to understand my goals and identify the areas where I needed the most improvement. Because of that, each session felt targeted and useful, not repetitive or unfocused. David is very patient, which made a big difference in my progress. When I struggled with a concept, he did not rush or move on too quickly. He stayed with the topic and explained it step by step until I understood it. He was always willing to go over material again and answer questions without hesitation. That patience helped me stay confident and keep working through difficult topics. His teaching style is clear and structured. David breaks down complex ideas into simple steps that are easy to follow. He focuses on helping you understand the process behind each problem, not just the final answer. This approach helped me think more logically and approach new problems with confidence. Over time, I noticed that I was solving problems faster and making fewer mistakes because I understood the reasoning behind each step. David is also very organized and consistent. He comes prepared to every session and uses time efficiently. At the same time, he stays flexible. If I needed extra help on a topic, he adjusted the session and focused more on it. If I was doing well, he introduced more challenging problems to push me further. This balance helped me stay engaged and continue improving without feeling overwhelmed. Another strong point is how supportive and encouraging David is. He maintains a positive attitude and creates an environment where you feel comfortable asking questions and learning from mistakes. That made a big difference, especially during times when the material felt difficult. Instead of feeling discouraged, I felt motivated to keep going and improve. Because of David’s help, I saw real progress in both my understanding and my confidence. I felt more prepared for exams and assignments, and I developed stronger problem solving skills that I can use going forward. His teaching had a lasting impact on how I approach learning. If you are looking for a tutor who is patient, clear, organized, and committed to your success, David is an excellent choice. He goes beyond just teaching the material and helps you build a strong foundation. I am very thankful for his support and would definitely work with him again.

Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor

We started tutoring with David for my son as he is struggling with his grades in Macro economics. He is very knowledgeable and able to help my son quickly, Now he understands the concepts well and improved his grades. He not only teaches the concepts well , but also interacts well, asks questions and discusses the sample questions with him. That helps to prepare for the exams. we will continue working with David for more classes. Thanks David for your help !
