Teaching methodology
I excel in tutoring Economics, Finance, and AP Economics courses for college and professional students. My teaching style is interactive and engaging, focusing on problem-solving and detailed, concept-focused lessons. I believe in hands-on and practical learning to ensure my students understand the material thoroughly. I prepare students for success in exams and future careers by incorporating real-world applications into lessons. Additionally, I use group projects to assess teamwork and application of economic principles, and provide video feedback to discuss student analysis and suggest alternative strategies. My goal is to help students master economic principles and excel in their academic and professional endeavors. In an online environment it is essential that we agree on how we are going to create a warm, welcoming, inclusive ,and an open learning environment. I implement virtual reality through sophisticated simulations and games that provide a risk free but challenging environment for engaging students in authentic problem based activities and role playing exercises aimed at developing the skills they need to become successful practitioners. I guide students in connecting the skills practiced during class discussions to their other goals in life such as listening better to friends, disagreeing with loved ones, empathizing with different economic and political views and communicating more clearly.
