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.

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.

About me
My name is Tom and I obtained my master's degree in Finance & Investments from Erasmus University. I enjoy sharing my enthusiasm and knowledge about topics such as business economics, economics, finance and accounting with everyone I mentor! During and after my studies I worked at an investor, investment bank and scientific research institute, and I am currently setting up my own company. I have been tutoring regularly since 2020; both to high school students and to adults pursuing a master's degree.

About my coaching
If you are struggling with a specific topic, we can see together what you are good at and what we can best focus on during the sessions. Some courses that I have supervised in the past are: business economics, economics, mathematics, bookkeeping/accountancy, cost accounting, managerial accounting, financial accounting, business economics (beco), risk management and investments. I provide advice on learning methods, how to best prepare for the subject and how to best read test questions. This method turns out to be very effective!

Why choose my tutoring?
- I'm quick to put my finger on the sore spot
- I adapt my lessons to the latest exam requirements and developments in the profession
- I teach pupils/students methods to apply to exams and exams

Correctly interpreting financial documentation can be very difficult at first. It is very important for entrepreneurs to understand how the business is translated into figures. In these lessons I like to zoom in on the business plan, what you should pay attention to in the figures and how a third party assesses the data.

If drawing up a business plan requires some financial input, I will also be happy to explain how this can be added. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or to discuss a case.

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. I am good at explaining for economics meaning behind the mathematic formula and I often link abstract theories with vivid examples and charts.

I teach the basics of futures trading, and I bring 2 years of hands-on experience in these markets to help you learn effectively. Futures trading can seem complex at first, but I break it down into simple, practical steps so anyone can understand and start applying it.

This is a course of 5 (60 minute classes), I only teach in english.

Lesson 1: What Futures Are: I explain what a futures contract is, how it represents an agreement to buy or sell an asset at a predetermined price on a future date, and why traders use them.

Lesson 2:. Going Long and Short: You’ll understand the difference between taking a long position (expecting prices to rise) and a short position (expecting prices to fall), and how to apply these strategies in real market scenarios.

Lesson 3:Leverage and Margin: Futures allow you to control large positions with a small amount of capital. I teach how leverage works, how to calculate margin requirements, and why proper risk management is critical to avoid big losses.

Lesson 4: Risk Management: Personally the most important part: I show practical ways to protect your capital, set stop-losses, and manage trades so you can stay in the game longer while minimizing unnecessary risk.

Lesson 5:Practical Examples and Trading Mindset: Beyond theory, I provide real examples, explain chart reading basics, and guide you on how to develop a disciplined trading mindset.
