Economics I course : introduction to microeconomics

33.33 C$ /h

The Economics 1 course will start with a presentation of the demand and supply economic model in order to provide an analysis of the mechanisms and inner workings of competitive markets (price determination, equilibrium quantity, etc.). It will also be the occasion to investigate the impact on the competitive equilibrium of some public policies such as price control and indirect taxation.
The course will then determine why, and under which conditions, free trade can be viewed as an efficient way to coordinate the actions of specialized economic agents. Through a careful examination of the (utopic) necessary conditions a market must fulfil so as to be considered perfectly competitive, it will be brought to the students' attention that those conditions are seldom (if ever) respected: the course will then provide an overview of several market failures, as well as study in detail several types of imperfect competition.
Finally, the question of the possibility (and the necessity) of public intervention in a market economy will remain a central focus throughout the course.

Part I: Introduction
Chapter 1: "To think like an economist" - basic concepts (Mankiw, chapitres 1 et 2)

Part II: Supply and demand - how markets work
Chapter 3: The market forces of supply and demand (Mankiw, ch. 4, ch. 5)
Chapter 4: Consumers, producers and the efficiency of markets (Mankiw, ch. 7, 8)
Chapter 5: Supply, demand and government policies (Mankiw, ch. 6)

Part III: Market failures under perfect competition
Chapter 6: Externalities (Mankiw, ch.10)
Chapter 7: Public goods and common resources (Mankiw ch. 11)

Part IV: Firm behavior in competitive markets
Chapter 8: The costs of production (Mankiw, ch. 13)
Chapter 9: Firms in competitive markets (Mankiw, ch. 14)

Part V: Imperfect competition
Chapter 10: The monopoly and other examples of imperfect compeition (Mankiw ch. 10, 11)

An experienced teacher, I tailor my course on the specific needs of my students, so they can reach the desired level in math/physics/chemistry as quickly as possible. My approach is practical, and goal-oriented (examination, certificate, etc.).

I give courses to high-school and bachelor level students. I speak French, English, and Dutch.

About :
An engineer by background ("ingénieur civil"), I have become an education professional with a significant experience teaching math, physics and chemistry both in the classroom (lycée Mater Dei, Woluwé-Saint-Pierre), and outside the classroom.

I resolve issues that students have for instance because of pre-existing learning gaps, or difficulties to understand the complex aspects of scientific courses in the classroom.

I offer private lessons in mathematics, physics and chemistry for primary and secondary school students. My lessons are personalized and tailored to the individual needs of each student. My goal is to strengthen their understanding of the concepts and help them achieve their academic goals.

My classes are interactive and include practical exercises to reinforce students' understanding. I also use concrete examples to help students grasp the practical application of theoretical concepts.

My patience is a big plus, and I encourage students to ask questions and progress at their own pace. At the end of each lesson, I give homework to reinforce their understanding and provide them with regular feedback on their progress.

If you are looking for a dedicated and experienced tutor in mathematics, physics and chemistry for your child, I invite you to contact me via Apprentus. We can discuss how we can work together to achieve his academic goals.

Lessons can be given at the student's home, in a previously agreed public place (such as a library or study room), or online via the Teams platform.

the EXMD, entrance exam for Medicine now passed in Competition is now slightly more complicated.

The subject of this exam is specific and requires a teaching of logic and not the simple recitation of courses learned by heart.

Indeed, it is professors of Medicine who create the questions of the competition and seek to make the student reason and reflect in order to classify him.

There are 4 science subjects:

-Mathematics
-Physical
-Chemistry
-Biology

These four subjects are essential to master because they will follow you throughout your first two years of Bachelor.

And 4 non-scientific subjects:
-Ethics
-Empathy
-Reasoning
-Communication

These subjects are based on fairly simple principles and a lot of logic, which is sometimes not innate!

I obviously teach for the 8 subjects.

Hello,
My name is Maximilien, I am 23 years old and I am currently a Master 2 student at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (KUL) where I am pursuing a Master's degree in Energy Engineering in English.

After completing a bachelor's degree in civil engineering at UCLouvain (physics-chemistry and mechanics option), I decided to continue my studies at the neighboring university.
The subjects I teach are mathematics, chemistry and physics.

Having also obtained my humanities diploma at Sint-Jan Berchmanscollege, I can give lessons in French, Dutch or English.

I like to actively involve my students in the course so that they understand the material well but above all that they find interest in it. I start from the principle that it is difficult to succeed in a subject without appreciating it a minimum and above all finding what it really serves us for!

In general, I like to start by reviewing the latest questions/exams to assess the level and needs of the student.
Then we go through the theory necessary to carry out the exercises and finally finish with exercise sessions together.
I am a dynamic and attentive person who quickly understands students (I was in their shoes not so long ago), which allows me to create a relationship of trust, so that the student feels comfortable and asks ALL the questions he has, and does not hesitate to say when things are not going well.

Courses for upper secondary school students of any option as well as university students having difficulties in science.

I have a Master's degree in physics with a teaching focus from ULB. I therefore have the agrégation (a teaching qualification) and am a secondary school teacher, and as mentioned, I hold a Master's degree in physics.

I place great importance on understanding the student's difficulties and overcoming them with them. I often start with a short reminder to put everything back in place, then I go through the student's course with them, redoing the exercises and inventing examples, while adapting the level of difficulty so that the session is productive. Finally, if desired, I leave exercises as homework to ensure that the student is able to test themselves and apply the concepts seen in class. The student can send me this homework, which I correct for free, with feedback.

Holding a Master's degree in Civil Engineering with a specialization in Physics (graduated with highest honors), I offer tutoring in Math, Physics, and Chemistry for secondary school students. Attentive to each student's needs, I identify their specific difficulties and help them progress.

The teaching method I use is the same one I applied myself during my university studies. Since it allowed me to pass with distinction, I am convinced that it can also help other students progress. My mastery of the subjects allows me to quickly identify what is essential and expected by the teachers, which represents a precious time saving for the student.

Thomas

My name is Thomas, I am 24 years old, I am pursuing a bachelor's degree in Mathematical Sciences and I offer math lessons in Brussels for secondary school students.

Before beginning any actual tutoring, I always arrange an initial meeting with the student and their parent(s) to discuss their specific needs, goals, and the best way to achieve them. This also allows us to ensure that we are on the same page.

It's important to me to create a trusting environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, expressing their difficulties, and progressing at their own pace. Math is too often taught in a dehumanizing way, with language and concepts that seem designed only for robots, which can make the subject difficult to grasp.

My approach is based on intuition; I want to make mathematics intuitive for those learning new concepts, while maintaining the necessary rigor. The goal is to dispel the limiting beliefs that hinder learning. The problem is never the student, it's always the teacher.

I provide a clear and simple explanation of the concepts covered in class, with the aim of best preparing students for homework, tests and exams.

As a student myself, I understand the difficulties that students may encounter during their learning, so I will be happy to help them and give them all the advice they need to succeed as best as possible.

I am the eldest of a family, so I am used to helping my brother and sister with their homework or quizzes/exams.
