    About Me

    Hello there ☺️👩🏻‍🏫

    My name is Dina. I hold a MS in Resource Economics (GPA: 3.96), a BA in Economics and Statistics (GPA: 4.0) from two universities in the United States. I am currently working as a full-time teacher of Economics and Statistics as well as a TOEFL/SAT tutor in a private education center.

    Apart from teaching, I love reading fiction and listening to music of any kind. I play the piano on my spare time and go out running to release any negative energy.

    During my leisure time, I also like to watch crime documentaries while laying in bed with my beloved cat 🐈

    Education

    I hold a Master of Science in Resource Economics and Policy as well as a Bachelor of Arts in Applied Arts and Sciences with Concentrations in Economics, Management, and Statistics.

    Experience / Qualifications

    I have started my teaching experience first working as a Math tutor for my university during my undergraduate studies in US. While pursuing my graduate studies, I also worked as a tutor for different economics subjects. For the past four years, I have been teaching high school economics and statistics. Here is a brief outline of my skills/jobs throughout the years:

    ✔️📊Tutored Economics and Statistics to undergraduate students
    ✔️👩🏻‍💻Tutored Labor Economics to undergraduate students
    ✔️💸Teacher of Economics and Statistics to high school students
    ✔️📖Teacher of TOEFL/GRE/SAT/IELTS courses to high schoolers and undergraduates
    ✔️📝College counselor to high school seniors, offering help in a) CV/resume writing, b) College Essay/Personal Statement writing, c) College and career interest identifications
    TOEFL stands for Test of English as a Foreign Language and is one of the most required tests for international upper education admission. A high TOEFL score not only improves your chances of getting admitted to the university of your dreams, it also paves the way to better scholarships. TOEFL consists of four sections: Reading, Listening, Speaking, Writing. We will make sure to dedicate class time to each section equally or focus more on one section you might need more help in. It’s completely up to you how you decide to structure the class. If you decide to take classes with me, I will make sure to walk you through all necessary tips and strategies needed to ace the exam. You will also take 3 full test exams graded by me as well as 5 more practice ones at your own timing
    This class is suited to aid you in preparing for the Collegeboard AP Microeconomics and AP Macroeconomics exams. I have worked as an AP Economics teacher and tutor and have all the needed syllabi, AP classroom access, different textbooks (Krugman’s for AP, Barron’s, Princeton review), and the stamina to get you through the class and help you ace your AP exams. We will follow College Board’s course outline for the most part, unless you individually would like to cover specific units that you might need more help with. I will also use past exams to better prepare you for the AP exam and help you practice. Mid-course as well as on the very final day, we will complete full tests just so that you can get a better understanding of what areas you need improvement in as well as see how you have improved from having studied in this class. I usually structure classes based on Modules, covering first theory then exam questions related to the covered module.
    Economics and Statistics are subjects that have overarching impact in different areas of life. Whether you are a student looking to take this class to strengthen your understanding, or just someone that is interested to learn more about the subjects, I encourage you to give the class a try. My experience lies in teaching Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, and Statistics at a Beginner and Intermediate level, mostly aimed for graduating high schoolers and first year college students. I will make sure to cover all the material from your book(s) as well as problems. My classes are usually centered around chapters- for each chapter I spend 1-2 classes covering theory and 1-2 classes covering problems and solutions. We can awlays structure the classes as per your request, depending on what you need more help with.

    Preparing for, and Improving, College Composition and Reading
    Despite advances in AI and other technologies, the core practice of excelling in college remains reading comprehension and essay writing. While these tools can act as a band-aid, they do not help students with foundational learning skills overall. With five years of experience in teaching college composition, I am aware of the gaps between high school and college literacy with which many students enter. My course will focus on filling such gaps to improve prospective and current students' overall reading and writing skills to aid in textbook comprehension and essay writing for any class they may attend. In attending my course, you will practice: - 1:1 help with essay edits and writing - Reading and critical engagement with excerpts from typical college material - Short writing drills to improve overall writing towards a college level - Line editing and peer review
