Boston, MA Tutor

About Me

I am a Economics Phd candidate at Boston University. I love economics and I love helping other people understand economics, math, and statistics. I love teaching because I love seeing students grasp difficult concepts and realize that they're not difficult at all. I also love teaching because each time I teach a concept, I understand it even more deeply than before. It's a win-win situation because I learn from my students and they learn from me. I've taught as a teaching assistant, a tutor, and as a lecturer at the university level. Through that experience I've learned a lot about what concepts are the most difficult for students to understand and the best ways to explain those concepts in an intuitive manner so that students don't just memorize how the concepts work but they truly understand them.

Tim is very helpful and adaptable! He has really helped me better understand economic statistics by getting to the root of theories and concepts rather than just having me memorize formulas.
