Microeconomics, Game Theory, ECON101, and Mathematics Tutoring

From 66 € /h

Learning economics can be challenging, especially with the level of mathematics that is required. My class covers a wide range of topics in microeconomics, game theory, and ECON 101, providing the necessary mathematical background, shaped according to the demand of individual students. Depending on which of the subjects you wish to cover, the class can contain the following:

- All subjects of the introductory ECON101 course taught at universities: Supply and demand, economic surplus, elasticity, taxes and subsidies, perfect competition, monopoly, oligopoly, economic growth, money and banking, monetary policy, fiscal policy and more.

- All subjects of introductory (1st or 2nd year) and advanced (3rd or 4th year) microeconomics: consumer decision, tastes and rationality, price effect decomposition, demand of consumer goods, supply of labor and capital, consumer welfare, production with 1 and multiple inputs, partial equilibrium.

- All subjects of introductory and advanced game theory: strategic form games, dominance, Nash equilibrium, evolutionary stability, extensive form games, repeated games, games with uncertainty, Bayesian games, adverse selection, moral hazard, signalling and more.

- I will provide the necessary math during the above classes. However, you can also request math tutoring separately covering the following subjects: limits and continuity, differentiation (derivatives, product rule, chain rule etc.), application of derivatives, integration, fundamental theorem of calculus.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Most teaching of these subjects just focus on solving specific problems, but miss to give the intuition behind it all to really understand what is going on. While focusing on different applications of the topics in microeconomic theory and game theory, I aim to provide a concrete understanding of the important topics in these fields. The class involves both lectures on the desired topics and many problem-sets we will work on together.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a lot of experience with students from different backgrounds. I will be teaching this class online, using the whiteboard function of online meeting applications such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Skype. During the first two years of covid, I had to teach classes online to groups of students, so built up experience with online teaching. I use a tablet and a digital pen to employ the whiteboard and simulate in-class teaching very closely.

About Me

I am originally from Turkey, but I have lived abroad for a long time. I've been living in Budapest since last year. I do research in the topics I teach as well, so this is not just a source of income for me but also my passion. I would love to pass on what I know both for students who wish to enhance their understanding of the topics, but also to ones that wish to work on similar fields in the future.

My education covered a wide range of areas, because of this I was able to develop an understanding for different fields and therefore, I am able to teach effectively at different topics/levels.

Looking forward to meeting you!

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

Math is a nightmare for most of the students, if they do not understand the principle of math. Those who are good at math are usually bad at teaching math. Explore the method to learn math in a more principled and structural way, instead of memorising solution.

Hi I'm a college student, I have advanced knowledge in subjects like, algebra, calculous, math in general, physics, and some statistics. Also, I'm a native Spanish speaker, so I can also help you with grammar, pronunciation. My main goal is to help you understand the topics that you struggle with, because in my experience, sometimes what you need is a different approach of how things are done rather than it being too difficult.
