Experience
I am making it my mission to bring each of my students a step closer to their academic goals. I ask each student for feedback about our sessions, allowing them to tell me which aspects worked well for them and which were not helpful. I use this feedback to tailor my techniques to meet their needs. The student is the focus of each class. I do not simply provide information, but work with each person to ensure they are understanding the material I am teaching. I encourage questions during the sessions, and also ask questions about my teaching methods. I want my students to feel comfortable talking with me, so they are more trusting of me and what I am teaching them.I specialize in accounting, economics, finance, and business, and have a master's degree in economics. I discuss tax policies, stock markets, equity research, global currencies, and much more. I also offer tutoring in mathematics, as many topics between math, accounting, and economics overlap. I understand many of these subjects are not interesting to learn, but I do my best to offer real world examples that make them applicable to my students' lives. I try to make the work light and fun whenever possible.
