About Me
My academic training and seven years of experience working as a faculty member in different universities in Turkey prepare me an effective researcher and instructor at your institution. I have received my PhD in economics in 2009 from Georgetown University which is one of the most prestigious and well-known universities in United States. My doctoral dissertation examines monetary policy shocks using a DSGE model and analyzes the role of labor market institutions on inflation and wage dynamics. During my PhD study at Georgetown University, I also worked as a teaching assistant and helped students in various undergraduate and graduate courses.
Until I obtained my tenure and become an Associate Professor of Economics in October 2013, my research agenda was about Turkish banking industry. As you may also see in my CV, I published various papers in well-known journals about credit channel of monetary policy, concentration and competition, determinants of non-performing loans and profitability in Turkish banking sector. After I get my tenure, my research agenda is generally shaped by energy economics and I published various academic papers and non-academic policy reports on this issue. One of papers entitled “Energy Future of Europe and the Role of Southern Gas Corridor” was chosen as one of the well-written policy papers in United States. My position as a senior fellow at Caspian Strategy Institute, an Istanbul based think tank, significantly contributed my research portfolio during this period.
Besides my research portfolio, I also build strong educational skills during the past seven years as a faculty member in different universities. I taught various courses at the undergraduate and graduate level and obtained strong evaluations from my students. Microeconomics, Economic Policy, Financial Economics, Industrial Economics and Financial Accounting may be listed as some of the courses that I teach at the undergraduate level. At the graduate level, I generally teach finance courses including Advance Finance, Financial Management, Derivative Products, and International Economics.
With my experience, training and enthusiasm I am prepared to establish my research agenda at your valuable institution. I am looking forward to teach courses in various fields of economics and finance. I am also prepared to develop new courses that would fit in and enrich your existing curriculum.

► EXPERT BUSINESS, ACCOUNTING, FINANCE & ECONOMICS TUTOR FROM SWITZERLAND
► IB, A-LEVEL, IGCSE & INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL SUPPORT

I completed my Master’s degree in Business Information Systems at a Swiss University of Applied Sciences, where my academic background strongly combined business, finance, economics, mathematics, analytical thinking and problem-solving. This technical and business-oriented foundation shaped the way I teach today: clearly, logically and with a strong focus on real understanding.

For many years, I have successfully supported students in Business Studies, Accounting, Finance and Economics. As a tutor from Switzerland, I bring a structured, patient and highly individual teaching style to students who want to improve their grades, prepare for important exams and build real confidence in business-related subjects.

My lessons are designed for students who want more than just memorizing definitions and formulas. I focus on understanding business concepts, applying financial logic, interpreting economic relationships and solving accounting problems step by step.

► EXAM PREPARATION & ACADEMIC SUPPORT

► IGCSE BUSINESS, ACCOUNTING & ECONOMICS
I help students build a strong foundation in business concepts, financial calculations and economic thinking. My lessons include clear theory explanations, topic-by-topic revision and exam-style practice to prepare students confidently for their assessments.

► A-LEVEL BUSINESS, ACCOUNTING, ECONOMICS & FINANCE
A-Level subjects require strong analytical thinking, clear written arguments and confident application of theory to real business situations. I support students with structured revision, essay technique, calculation practice, case-study analysis and preparation for demanding exams.

► INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE — IB BUSINESS MANAGEMENT & ECONOMICS
I provide structured support for IB students, focusing on deep understanding, strong terminology, analytical writing and exam technique. Students learn how to explain concepts clearly, analyse case studies, evaluate decisions and structure high-quality answers.

► INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL PROGRAMMES
I support students following international, bilingual and private school curricula in Business Studies, Economics, Accounting, Finance, Commerce and Management. Since every school can have different expectations, I adapt my teaching to the student’s syllabus, textbook, teacher requirements and exam format.

► UNIVERSITY & FOUNDATION COURSES
For older students, I offer support in Accounting, Corporate Finance, Economics, Business Administration, Financial Management, Statistics and quantitative business modules. I help students understand difficult theory, solve assignments, prepare for exams and develop strong analytical skills.

► HOW I TEACH

► I FOCUS ON REAL UNDERSTANDING, NOT MEMORISATION.
I explain business, accounting and economic concepts step by step so students understand the logic behind the theory and can apply it confidently in exams.

► I CONNECT THEORY WITH REAL BUSINESS EXAMPLES.
Business and economics become easier when students can see how concepts work in real life. I use practical examples to make topics clear, relevant and memorable.

► I SIMPLIFY COMPLEX CALCULATIONS.
In Accounting and Finance, I break calculations into clear steps so students understand what is given, which formula is needed and how to reach the final answer correctly.

► I TRAIN EXAM TECHNIQUE CAREFULLY.
Students learn how to structure answers, use key terminology, analyse case studies, justify decisions and manage time under exam conditions.

► I ADAPT EVERY LESSON TO THE STUDENT.
Every student learns differently, so I adjust my explanations, pace, examples and practice questions to match the student’s exact level and goals.

► YEARS OF EXPERIENCE WITH IB, A-LEVEL, IGCSE & INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL STUDENTS

Over the years, I have successfully supported students from prestigious schools and demanding academic programmes, helping them strengthen their understanding, master exam techniques and achieve excellent progress in Business Studies, Accounting, Finance and Economics.

► ONLINE LESSONS

► Interactive whiteboard
► Clear digital notes
► Personalised exercises
► Exam-style practice
► Flexible lesson structure
► Focused one-to-one support from Switzerland

Online lessons are structured, personal and highly effective. Students can ask questions directly, follow every step in real time and review the materials after the lesson.

► MY GOAL

My goal is not only to improve grades, but to help students become confident, independent and analytical thinkers. With the right guidance, Business, Accounting, Finance and Economics become logical, practical and much easier to master.

► SUBJECTS: Business Studies, Accounting, Finance, Economics, Business Administration, Management
► LEVELS: IGCSE, A-Level, IB, International School, Foundation Courses, University Modules
► FORMAT: Online tutoring from Switzerland
► FOCUS: Deep understanding, exam confidence, analytical thinking and long-term academic success.

• Teaching methodology and techniques: I favour a personalized approach, adapting the courses according to the profile and academic background of each student.
• Typical course structure: tutoring in economics, econometrics, statistics and probability, financial mathematics, trading, investment, or political economy. Courses can take place at home, via videoconference, or at a pre-selected location, ideally quiet, free, and conducive to learning.
• Specifics as a teacher: I offer support throughout the school year, with free corrections of exercises outside of class, regular availability, and the guarantee of being accessible until the end of the year, subject to the general conditions of Superprof.
• Target audience: all levels, regardless of diploma, class or specific characteristics.
-------
The path and the method are in there; take a little bit of each.

Holding a degree in mathematics from EPFL, I offer private lessons in Geneva or online.

I graduated from EPFL with a degree in mathematics, having completed all the Bachelor's level courses in this discipline. I have gained significant experience tutoring students from middle school to university level (mathematics and physics). I have also assisted with teaching at EPFL, particularly in specialized courses such as analytic geometry (advanced mathematics course), analysis (first and second year Bachelor's level), and linear algebra (first year Bachelor's level). My in-depth mastery of the theory in these disciplines provides me with the skills and teaching abilities necessary to effectively support high school and university students, helping them understand the theoretical concepts in their courses and apply them practically in their exercises.

Typical course: a quick review (adapted to needs) of the essential concepts of the course, followed by practical exercises and oral role-playing (going to the board, discussion on the physical meaning, etc.), as in a competitive oral exam.

All my lessons are prepared in advance based on the topics covered in class (the student specifies their needs from one session to the next). I also create a handout containing sample exercises illustrating different methods, fully corrected and explained by me.

My commitment to my students' success is absolute. I only prioritize motivated students who are ready to put in the necessary effort to progress.

My main focus is on in-depth understanding and the quality of work. Depending on the student's request, I can also suggest exercises to do between sessions (not mandatory, depending on available time and homework already assigned by their school).

I provide individual tutoring in Accounting, Finance, Economics and related quantitative business subjects for students at school, vocational, Fachhochschule and university level.

My academic background is in Business Information Systems at a Swiss University of Applied Sciences. This combines business, economics, mathematics, statistics, finance, data and analytical problem-solving.

I have several years of teaching experience and have supported students preparing for school examinations, vocational qualifications, Fachhochschule modules and university exams.

Accounting topics can include:

- Financial Accounting
- Bookkeeping
- Debit and credit
- Journal entries
- Balance sheet
- Income statement
- Opening and closing entries
- Accruals
- Depreciation
- Inventory
- VAT
- Swiss accounting exercises
- Cost Accounting
- Management Accounting
- BAB
- Cost allocation
- Contribution Margin
- Break-even analysis
- Cash Flow Statement
- Financial ratios

Finance topics can include:

- Simple interest
- Compound interest
- Present value
- Future value
- Annuities
- Financial Mathematics
- Investment calculations
- NPV
- Investment appraisal
- Bonds
- Shares
- Risk and return
- CAPM
- WACC
- Corporate Finance
- Financial ratios
- Quantitative finance exercises

Economics topics can include:

- Microeconomics
- Supply and demand
- Elasticity
- Market equilibrium
- Consumer theory
- Producer theory
- Costs
- Revenue
- Profit
- Market structures
- Perfect competition
- Monopoly
- Macroeconomic fundamentals
- Business Economics
- Quantitative Economics

Related quantitative subjects can include:

- Business Statistics
- Probability
- Quantitative Methods
- Regression
- Data interpretation
- Financial calculations
- Applied Mathematics for business students

My teaching approach is based on understanding the logic behind each calculation.

For quantitative questions, we normally use a clear structure:

- What is given?
- What needs to be found?
- Which formula or accounting principle applies?
- Why does it apply?
- How is the result calculated?
- What does the final number actually mean?

This is particularly useful in Accounting and Finance.

Students sometimes learn one example mechanically and then become confused when the wording or numbers change in an examination. I therefore use different question styles so that students learn to recognise the underlying principle.

Lessons can be used for:

- Regular semester support
- Homework and exercises
- Closing knowledge gaps
- Exam preparation
- Intensive revision
- FH examinations
- University examinations
- Repeating previously failed modules
- Improving calculation speed and accuracy

I explain concepts in a structured and practical way and adapt the level of detail to the individual student.

The aim is to make Accounting, Finance and Economics feel logical, organised and manageable rather than like complicated collections of formulas and rules.

Would you like to learn how the financial markets truly operate and discover how to make better investment decisions?

If so, I am here to help.

I have been professionally active in the financial markets for institutional clients for several years, specializing in both short-term trading and long-term investing.

Throughout this period, I have gained extensive hands-on experience and achieved above-average returns utilizing various trading and investment strategies.

Additionally, through my corporate professional work, I have mentored and trained other traders and long-term investors.I believe it is crucial for people to receive accurate, independent information about investing and trading.

The internet is flooded with information that is incomplete, misleading, or simply incorrect. This often leads people to make poor choices and take on unnecessary risks.That is why I want to leverage my knowledge and practical experience to give you a realistic, well-founded perspective on the financial markets.My goal is not to promise you quick riches, but to equip you with the knowledge and skills needed to make better, well-considered financial decisions for yourself.

I will teach you the essential knowledge and skills required to understand the financial markets, analyze companies and stocks, and confidently make well-informed investment decisions on your own.

My lessons are practical and tailored to your specific level of knowledge and personal learning goals. We combine theory with real-time examples from current financial markets, ensuring you don't just understand what you are doing, but, more importantly, why.

Struggling with a finance course? Or did you walk into one without any background at all and now have to learn it from scratch?

Either way, I am here to help. Corporate finance, derivatives, fixed income, valuation, portfolio theory. Whatever your course throws at you, we build the foundation properly rather than skimming the surface to get you past one exam.

Just send me your syllabus and the topics you want to cover, and I will prepare before the class so we use the hour on your material, not on working out what your course actually asks for.

A bit about me: MSc Finance at Bocconi, CFA Level 1, an off-cycle internship on UniCredit’s structured credit team, and an engineering degree before that. I have sat these exams recently, so I know which topics carry the marks and where people lose them.

How I teach: I use simple analogies and try different routes until one lands, instead of repeating the same explanation louder. Lessons are two way, not lectures. Ask the questions you think are too basic, because those are usually the gap that everything else is failing to stand on.

I provide structured support for IB students, focusing on deep understanding, strong terminology, analytical writing and exam technique. Students learn how to explain concepts clearly, analyse case studies, evaluate decisions and structure high-quality answers.

► INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL PROGRAMMES
I support students following international, bilingual and private school curricula in Business Studies, Economics, Accounting, Finance, Commerce and Management. Since every school can have different expectations, I adapt my teaching to the student’s syllabus, textbook, teacher requirements and exam format.

► UNIVERSITY & FOUNDATION COURSES
For older students, I offer support in Accounting, Corporate Finance, Economics, Business Administration, Financial Management, Statistics and quantitative business modules. I help students understand difficult theory, solve assignments, prepare for exams and develop strong analytical skills.

► HOW I TEACH

► I FOCUS ON REAL UNDERSTANDING, NOT MEMORISATION.
I explain business, accounting and economic concepts step by step so students understand the logic behind the theory and can apply it confidently in exams.

► I CONNECT THEORY WITH REAL BUSINESS EXAMPLES.
Business and economics become easier when students can see how concepts work in real life. I use practical examples to make topics clear, relevant and memorable.

► I SIMPLIFY COMPLEX CALCULATIONS.
In Accounting and Finance, I break calculations into clear steps so students understand what is given, which formula is needed and how to reach the final answer correctly.

► I TRAIN EXAM TECHNIQUE CAREFULLY.
Students learn how to structure answers, use key terminology, analyse case studies, justify decisions and manage time under exam conditions.

► I ADAPT EVERY LESSON TO THE STUDENT.
Every student learns differently, so I adjust my explanations, pace, examples and practice questions to match the student’s exact level and goals.

► YEARS OF EXPERIENCE WITH IB, A-LEVEL, IGCSE & INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL STUDENTS

Over the years, I have successfully supported students from prestigious schools and demanding academic programmes, helping them strengthen their understanding, master exam techniques and achieve excellent progress in Business Studies, Accounting, Finance and Economics.

The path and the method are in there; take a little bit of each.

Holding a degree in mathematics from EPFL, I offer private lessons in Geneva or online.

I graduated from EPFL with a degree in mathematics, having completed all the Bachelor's level courses in this discipline. I have gained significant experience tutoring students from middle school to university level (mathematics and physics). I have also assisted with teaching at EPFL, particularly in specialized courses such as analytic geometry (advanced mathematics course), analysis (first and second year Bachelor's level), and linear algebra (first year Bachelor's level). My in-depth mastery of the theory in these disciplines provides me with the skills and teaching abilities necessary to effectively support high school and university students, helping them understand the theoretical concepts in their courses and apply them practically in their exercises.

Typical course: a quick review (adapted to needs) of the essential concepts of the course, followed by practical exercises and oral role-playing (going to the board, discussion on the physical meaning, etc.), as in a competitive oral exam.

All my lessons are prepared in advance based on the topics covered in class (the student specifies their needs from one session to the next). I also create a handout containing sample exercises illustrating different methods, fully corrected and explained by me.

My commitment to my students' success is absolute. I only prioritize motivated students who are ready to put in the necessary effort to progress.

My main focus is on in-depth understanding and the quality of work. Depending on the student's request, I can also suggest exercises to do between sessions (not mandatory, depending on available time and homework already assigned by their school).

My academic background is in Business Information Systems at a Swiss University of Applied Sciences. This combines business, economics, mathematics, statistics, finance, data and analytical problem-solving.

I have several years of teaching experience and have supported students preparing for school examinations, vocational qualifications, Fachhochschule modules and university exams.

Accounting topics can include:

Related quantitative subjects can include:

- Business Statistics
- Probability
- Quantitative Methods
- Regression
- Data interpretation
- Financial calculations
- Applied Mathematics for business students

My teaching approach is based on understanding the logic behind each calculation.

For quantitative questions, we normally use a clear structure:

- What is given?
- What needs to be found?
- Which formula or accounting principle applies?
- Why does it apply?
- How is the result calculated?
- What does the final number actually mean?

This is particularly useful in Accounting and Finance.

Students sometimes learn one example mechanically and then become confused when the wording or numbers change in an examination. I therefore use different question styles so that students learn to recognise the underlying principle.

Lessons can be used for:

- Regular semester support
- Homework and exercises
- Closing knowledge gaps
- Exam preparation
- Intensive revision
- FH examinations
- University examinations
- Repeating previously failed modules
- Improving calculation speed and accuracy

I explain concepts in a structured and practical way and adapt the level of detail to the individual student.

The aim is to make Accounting, Finance and Economics feel logical, organised and manageable rather than like complicated collections of formulas and rules.

Would you like to learn how the financial markets truly operate and discover how to make better investment decisions?

If so, I am here to help.

I have been professionally active in the financial markets for institutional clients for several years, specializing in both short-term trading and long-term investing.

Throughout this period, I have gained extensive hands-on experience and achieved above-average returns utilizing various trading and investment strategies.

Additionally, through my corporate professional work, I have mentored and trained other traders and long-term investors.I believe it is crucial for people to receive accurate, independent information about investing and trading.

The internet is flooded with information that is incomplete, misleading, or simply incorrect. This often leads people to make poor choices and take on unnecessary risks.That is why I want to leverage my knowledge and practical experience to give you a realistic, well-founded perspective on the financial markets.My goal is not to promise you quick riches, but to equip you with the knowledge and skills needed to make better, well-considered financial decisions for yourself.

I will teach you the essential knowledge and skills required to understand the financial markets, analyze companies and stocks, and confidently make well-informed investment decisions on your own.

My lessons are practical and tailored to your specific level of knowledge and personal learning goals. We combine theory with real-time examples from current financial markets, ensuring you don't just understand what you are doing, but, more importantly, why.

Struggling with a finance course? Or did you walk into one without any background at all and now have to learn it from scratch?

Either way, I am here to help. Corporate finance, derivatives, fixed income, valuation, portfolio theory. Whatever your course throws at you, we build the foundation properly rather than skimming the surface to get you past one exam.

Just send me your syllabus and the topics you want to cover, and I will prepare before the class so we use the hour on your material, not on working out what your course actually asks for.

A bit about me: MSc Finance at Bocconi, CFA Level 1, an off-cycle internship on UniCredit’s structured credit team, and an engineering degree before that. I have sat these exams recently, so I know which topics carry the marks and where people lose them.

How I teach: I use simple analogies and try different routes until one lands, instead of repeating the same explanation louder. Lessons are two way, not lectures. Ask the questions you think are too basic, because those are usually the gap that everything else is failing to stand on.
