About Me

My academic training and seven years of experience working as a faculty member in different universities in Turkey prepare me an effective researcher and instructor at your institution. I have received my PhD in economics in 2009 from Georgetown University which is one of the most prestigious and well-known universities in United States. My doctoral dissertation examines monetary policy shocks using a DSGE model and analyzes the role of labor market institutions on inflation and wage dynamics. During my PhD study at Georgetown University, I also worked as a teaching assistant and helped students in various undergraduate and graduate courses.
Until I obtained my tenure and become an Associate Professor of Economics in October 2013, my research agenda was about Turkish banking industry. As you may also see in my CV, I published various papers in well-known journals about credit channel of monetary policy, concentration and competition, determinants of non-performing loans and profitability in Turkish banking sector. After I get my tenure, my research agenda is generally shaped by energy economics and I published various academic papers and non-academic policy reports on this issue. One of papers entitled “Energy Future of Europe and the Role of Southern Gas Corridor” was chosen as one of the well-written policy papers in United States. My position as a senior fellow at Caspian Strategy Institute, an Istanbul based think tank, significantly contributed my research portfolio during this period.
Besides my research portfolio, I also build strong educational skills during the past seven years as a faculty member in different universities. I taught various courses at the undergraduate and graduate level and obtained strong evaluations from my students. Microeconomics, Economic Policy, Financial Economics, Industrial Economics and Financial Accounting may be listed as some of the courses that I teach at the undergraduate level. At the graduate level, I generally teach finance courses including Advance Finance, Financial Management, Derivative Products, and International Economics.
With my experience, training and enthusiasm I am prepared to establish my research agenda at your valuable institution. I am looking forward to teach courses in various fields of economics and finance. I am also prepared to develop new courses that would fit in and enrich your existing curriculum.

I am specialized (>5 years of experience) in tutoring math for school (any level, but preferably higher level), including competitive exams such as the SAT, GRE, GMAT, and the IIT-JEE.

This class is aimed to train
1) high-school students undergoing VWO or an IB curriculum, who are having problems following math at school or university,
2) Anyone who wishes to take the VWO Math-A/B/C entrance examinations by Boswell or CCVX and wants to train for that.

Personally, I am currently working as a Quantitative Researcher of stock markets, and therefore analytical math is also a part of my job.

The classes could be rigorous or lenient depending on the student. There will be periodic homework and I'll make sure that the student achieves her/his desired goals.

I'm currently working as quantitative analyst for a Swiss bank. In particular, I build mathematical models for complex financial products, hence in my daily job I use a variety of mathematical and programming tools.

If you have just completed your Master's Degree or PhD and you would like to land a job in Quantitative Finance, I'm sure I can help you preparing for technical interviews about math, programming (C++, Python) and mathematical finance. Moreover, I can give you some precious insights about this job market.

I'm also available to assist you during the preparation of maths or physics exams at university level

Hello!

I'm Victor. I have experience in face-to-face and online econometrics, macro and microeconomics classes, and I worked in macroeconomics in the financial market. I am also currently connected with micro-finance topics during my PhD research.

My idea of a class is more open, starting with some chat to understand what the student needs. I usually ask for the course design (syllabus and other material you may have) to see what your professor is up to and ask the student's difficulties, so we can have a start point.

If you have any questions, I will be glad to help you.

Investing in cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc) is an activity that can allow you to have extra income every month with very little time invested in it (you can easily do it just a few days a month and after working hours)

However, the amount of information online on how to start this activity can be overwhelming and confusing.

Since I have been investing in crypto for 5 years and achieved financial freedom through it, I can show you the basics and also the systems I constantly use to create a long-term profitable portfolio, while getting weekly, compounded, passive income in the meanwhile.

Just some of the topics we'll cover, that we'll give you confidence in your long-term investments:
- What is Bitcoin?
- What is the blockchain?
- What is Ethereum?
- Other key cryptocurrencies - Some examples
- Where can I learn more on my own (top non-biased media resources I used for the last 5 years)?
- Where can I buy and sell cryptocurrencies?
- Why does Bitcoin go up massively every 4 years? - How does the market REALLY work? -
- How can I create a long-term portfolio with just a little bit of time invested every week? (explained step-by-step)
- When should I buy and sell my cryptocurrencies? (personal opinion)

Give it a try and I promise you will love it :)

Tutoring for "Financial Economics" course in the Finance Master program. The course is based on the book "Principles of Financial Economics" (Second Edition) by Stephen F. Leroy and Jan Werner.

► EXPERT BUSINESS, ACCOUNTING, FINANCE & ECONOMICS TUTOR FROM SWITZERLAND
► IB, A-LEVEL, IGCSE & INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL SUPPORT

I completed my Master’s degree in Business Information Systems at a Swiss University of Applied Sciences, where my academic background strongly combined business, finance, economics, mathematics, analytical thinking and problem-solving. This technical and business-oriented foundation shaped the way I teach today: clearly, logically and with a strong focus on real understanding.

For many years, I have successfully supported students in Business Studies, Accounting, Finance and Economics. As a tutor from Switzerland, I bring a structured, patient and highly individual teaching style to students who want to improve their grades, prepare for important exams and build real confidence in business-related subjects.

My lessons are designed for students who want more than just memorizing definitions and formulas. I focus on understanding business concepts, applying financial logic, interpreting economic relationships and solving accounting problems step by step.

► EXAM PREPARATION & ACADEMIC SUPPORT

► IGCSE BUSINESS, ACCOUNTING & ECONOMICS
I help students build a strong foundation in business concepts, financial calculations and economic thinking. My lessons include clear theory explanations, topic-by-topic revision and exam-style practice to prepare students confidently for their assessments.

► A-LEVEL BUSINESS, ACCOUNTING, ECONOMICS & FINANCE
A-Level subjects require strong analytical thinking, clear written arguments and confident application of theory to real business situations. I support students with structured revision, essay technique, calculation practice, case-study analysis and preparation for demanding exams.

► INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE — IB BUSINESS MANAGEMENT & ECONOMICS
I provide structured support for IB students, focusing on deep understanding, strong terminology, analytical writing and exam technique. Students learn how to explain concepts clearly, analyse case studies, evaluate decisions and structure high-quality answers.

► INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL PROGRAMMES
I support students following international, bilingual and private school curricula in Business Studies, Economics, Accounting, Finance, Commerce and Management. Since every school can have different expectations, I adapt my teaching to the student’s syllabus, textbook, teacher requirements and exam format.

► UNIVERSITY & FOUNDATION COURSES
For older students, I offer support in Accounting, Corporate Finance, Economics, Business Administration, Financial Management, Statistics and quantitative business modules. I help students understand difficult theory, solve assignments, prepare for exams and develop strong analytical skills.

► HOW I TEACH

► I FOCUS ON REAL UNDERSTANDING, NOT MEMORISATION.
I explain business, accounting and economic concepts step by step so students understand the logic behind the theory and can apply it confidently in exams.

► I CONNECT THEORY WITH REAL BUSINESS EXAMPLES.
Business and economics become easier when students can see how concepts work in real life. I use practical examples to make topics clear, relevant and memorable.

► I SIMPLIFY COMPLEX CALCULATIONS.
In Accounting and Finance, I break calculations into clear steps so students understand what is given, which formula is needed and how to reach the final answer correctly.

► I TRAIN EXAM TECHNIQUE CAREFULLY.
Students learn how to structure answers, use key terminology, analyse case studies, justify decisions and manage time under exam conditions.

► I ADAPT EVERY LESSON TO THE STUDENT.
Every student learns differently, so I adjust my explanations, pace, examples and practice questions to match the student’s exact level and goals.

► YEARS OF EXPERIENCE WITH IB, A-LEVEL, IGCSE & INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL STUDENTS

Over the years, I have successfully supported students from prestigious schools and demanding academic programmes, helping them strengthen their understanding, master exam techniques and achieve excellent progress in Business Studies, Accounting, Finance and Economics.

► ONLINE LESSONS

► Interactive whiteboard
► Clear digital notes
► Personalised exercises
► Exam-style practice
► Flexible lesson structure
► Focused one-to-one support from Switzerland

Online lessons are structured, personal and highly effective. Students can ask questions directly, follow every step in real time and review the materials after the lesson.

► MY GOAL

My goal is not only to improve grades, but to help students become confident, independent and analytical thinkers. With the right guidance, Business, Accounting, Finance and Economics become logical, practical and much easier to master.

Accounting serves as the language of business. It enables every organization to record its activities, determine profit or loss, and track assets and liabilities. It also provides the foundation for analyzing past performance and preparing future budgets. For these reasons, accounting is essential for all types of businesses.
