Procurement & Commercial Strategy Tutor

Ruth Estrella P.

Hi! My name is Ruth.

I believe in the saying, “Give a person a fish and they eat for a day; teach them to fish and they eat for a lifetime.” My goal as a tutor is not just to help students solve a problem, but to help them truly understand the material so they can apply it independently and confidently.

I bring over 10 years of corporate experience in strategic procurement, primarily for indirects. My expertise includes strategic sourcing, contracting, supplier management, negotiations, and commercial strategy. Most recently, I transitioned into a commercial role focused on trade strategy, expanding my expertise beyond procurement into broader business strategy.

I hold an undergraduate degree in Economics and an MBA with a concentration in Supply Chain and Strategic Leadership.

I can support students and professionals in areas such as:
•Strategic sourcing and procurement
•Negotiation and contracting
•Business strategy
•Career development in procurement

For each session, I tailor my approach to the student’s needs. I’m happy to review materials, assignments, or specific questions in advance at no additional cost to ensure our time together is productive and focused.

I offer in-person sessions in the outskirts of Philadelphia and virtual sessions for students across the U.S. and internationally.

I look forward to helping you build confidence and mastery in your subject area!
