About your finance tutor

Hey! I'm Scott, a CFA Charterholder and finance tutor with over 10 years of tutoring experience. I currently work in Banking Regulations so I have real world experience as well. I've got a diploma in finance and love helping people understand everything from Financial Markets to Corporate Finance. I work with everyone—kids, college students, professionals—you name it. Need help with career guidance? Prepping for an exam? Working through case studies or homework? I've got you covered. I can go at whatever pace you need and I take pride in ensuring my students success. If there is one piece of advice I want you to take with you for exams, it is that exams are usually not a "reading" test. They are instead a "doing problems" test. So my tutoring is very "doing problems" heavy. We will work through lots of example problems that I have (and that you may have as well).

Finance class quick guide

My approach to tutoring is all about making sure you actually get the concepts, not just memorize them. I focus on collaboration, getting you exam-ready, working through quantitative analysis, and diving into practical case studies that show you how this stuff works in the real world. I specialize in a bunch of areas—the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) exam, Corporate Finance, Financial Markets, Business Finance, you name it. I use a wide range of tools and online platforms, simulation software, and digital resources to make sure the tutoring fits your learning style. Every student is different, so I tailor my approach to what works best for you. I work with all kinds of people—kids just starting out, intermediate students, adults, and advanced learners looking to level up. My goal is always the same: simplify complex financial concepts, help you think critically, and get you fully prepared for whatever exam or challenge you're facing. Here's what I really believe: the most important thing you can do when prepping for an exam is working through problem sets. Seriously. You can read the textbook cover to cover, but until you're actually solving problems, applying formulas, and working through scenarios on your own, the material won't stick. That's why I put a huge emphasis on practice problems in our sessions—lots of them. We'll work through questions together, I'll show you where people commonly trip up, and then you'll do more on your own. Repetition and application are everything when it comes to exam success. Let's work together to make finance click for you!
