I specialized in tutoring Microeconomics and Macroeconomics for students in IB and AP programs. I have students from various high schools in Turkey and besides that I also teach AP Microeconomics&Macroeconomics at a high school in Istanbul. I have a PhD in economics from Georgetown University and I have worked as an Associate Professor of Economics and Finance in various universities in Turkey.
With 10 years of experience as a Professor of Economics I do not let the students memorize the concepts. Instead I ensure that they get the logic and they are able to apply theoretical concepts to real life issues.

I am a professional professor of economics in Poland since 2005. I teach Economics HL and SL in the IB program in one of the best schools in Warsaw since 2013. I can explain your doubts and help you with the Internal Assessments. I don't speak Spanish, I only speak English.
I graduated from Szkoła Główna Handlowa w Warszawie (Warsaw School of Economics) and have completed all the necessary trainings for the previous and current syllabus.
All the classes are based on what you need to know for your final IB exam, but I explain it in an unconventional way so that you understand better. I adjust the methodology to each my student. I have a lot of experience teaching groups and individuals. All my students always get good grades on Internal Assessments and final exams.

Kids don't need lectures about "good money habits." They need to feel what money does.
While adults debate finances at home, kids are already using money, without actually understanding how.

In this course, we learn by playing. And by thinking.
We'll explore together:
✓ Simulate a real shop: handle actual money, practice spending and saving, discover what it feels like
✓ Create a personal budget: not boring spreadsheets, but visuals, games, and real challenges
✓ Ask the real questions: Need vs. want. Why save? How do people earn? What's debt?
✓ Discover how systems work: Banks, loans, digital money, and financial security
✓ Think like an entrepreneur: What services can I offer? How do I create value? How do I turn an idea into money?

Why this is different:
Most kids think "money is complicated." This class shows them that money is a tool, not a mystery, not something to fear.
And, more importantly: that they can control it.

What they take home:
A personal budgeting system they actually understand. Answers to questions they've been asking. And the mindset: money is a means, not an end.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60-min sessions | Small group or one-on-one

For curious kids who ask questions about money.

► 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.

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.

Economics & Business Economics tutoring – aimed at final exam success

I help final-year students with economics and business economics, from pre-vocational secondary education (MAVO) to pre-university education (VWO). With over five years of experience as a tutor, I know exactly what students struggle with and how best to approach exam questions.

My coaching is practical, effective, and results-oriented. The focus is on practicing exam skills, learning clever tricks, and understanding the structure of exam questions. This way, students learn not only the material but also, and more importantly, how to approach questions.

All tutored students completed their final exams with at least 1 grade point higher.

Want to take your economics or business economics exam with more confidence and clarity? I'd be happy to help!

Suitable for Havo 3,4,5
VWO 4,5,6
Mavo 3
There is also an opportunity for HBO/WO students with business economics issues!

• 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 offer individual tutoring in Statistics, Probability, Quantitative Methods and related mathematical subjects for school, IB, AP, SAT, Fachhochschule and university students.

Statistics can initially feel confusing because many formulas and methods appear similar. My approach is therefore focused on understanding the logic behind the method rather than simply memorising formulas.

We always ask:

- What information is given?
- What exactly needs to be found?
- What type of statistical problem is this?
- Which method should be used?
- Why is this method appropriate?
- What does the final result mean?

I have several years of experience teaching students from Swiss and international education systems and regularly support students in Statistics, Mathematics, Probability and Data Analysis.

Topics can include:

- Descriptive statistics
- Mean, median and mode
- Quartiles
- Variance
- Standard deviation
- Probability
- Conditional probability
- Tree diagrams
- Combinatorics
- Permutations and combinations
- Random variables
- Expected value
- Binomial distribution
- Normal distribution
- Sampling
- Sampling distributions
- Central Limit Theorem
- Confidence intervals
- Hypothesis testing
- p-values
- t-tests
- Chi-square tests
- Covariance
- Correlation
- Pearson correlation
- Linear regression
- Regression equations
- R2
- Data interpretation
- Statistical modelling
- Business Statistics
- Quantitative Methods

I can support students preparing for:

- IB Mathematics AA
- IB Mathematics AI
- IB Probability and Statistics
- AP Statistics
- SAT Math
- Swiss Matura
- Passerelle
- Fachhochschule Statistics
- University Statistics
- Business Statistics
- Economics Statistics
- Quantitative Methods
- Introductory Data Analysis

SAT Math preparation can additionally include:

- Algebra
- Advanced Mathematics
- Ratios and percentages
- Word problems
- Tables and graphs
- Data analysis
- Probability
- Geometry
- Trigonometry
- Desmos strategies
- Time management
- Faster problem-solving methods

For AP, FH and university students, we can go deeper into statistical reasoning and interpretation.

Lessons can include:

- Theory explained in simple language
- Step-by-step calculations
- Formula selection
- Exam-style questions
- Longer case studies
- Interpretation of statistical results
- Reading graphs and tables
- Understanding statistical output
- Improving mathematical notation
- Exam preparation

With regression, for example, we do not simply calculate correlation or R2. We also discuss what these values actually mean in the context of the question.

With hypothesis testing, students learn the complete logic from hypotheses to test statistic, p-value, decision and final interpretation.

My goal is to make Statistics feel logical, structured and manageable rather than like a collection of unrelated formulas.
