My accounting and finance courses are aimed at students in colleges and universities (bachelor's level). Before starting private lessons, I usually ask for a description of the student's current course so that I can best prepare the sessions.

My background in civil engineering has instilled in me a problem-based learning approach. My teaching method is therefore primarily practical, as the most important thing for analytical subjects is being able to solve any type of problem. And to do that, you need to do as many as possible. During my studies, I realized that the best way to understand a subject is by doing exercises on it. However, a certain foundation is necessary. That's why I usually start with a brief review of the subject and provide a formula sheet with the important formulas and concepts when needed. Then, I work through one or more typical exercises with the student, explaining the steps involved. Finally, the student will do exercises on their own, using the formula sheet (using formulas is the best way to remember them). I will then be there to assess their understanding, answer their questions, and help them when necessary.

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.

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

Most of the trading mentorship programs you will find on the internet will try to convince you that you must apply this so-called specific trading strategy on cryptos or forex and become rich by just following those simple technical rules. THIS IS A LIE.

If you want to succeed in trading you must understand that you are setting up your own sole company. You will be your own boss, your own client and your own competitor. Then you have to know your ecosystem, the rules you must respect in order to succeed especially you will have to understand those very specific topics:

-trading is a zero sum gain,
-you have to accept losing in order to be able to win in a consistent basis,
-you must know the main psychological biases that are detrimental to your trading success, like the loss aversion or confirmation biases among many others,
-you have to understand what a trading edge is that is a statistical advantage that will make you a consistent profitable trader in the long run,
-you have not only to know what are the three main components of any trading edge, that its the hit ratio, the risk-reward ratio and the position size but also to understand how they interact with each other,
-you have to use the right and unavoidable tools to assess and improve your edge: backtesting and journaling are among them.

Like I repeat to all the traders I mentor on a daily basis, a whole trading system is like a wooden stool with 4 feet. The first one is the strategy (the technical part), the second one is the risk management (the risk of loss and how to manage volatility and drawdowns), the third one is the psychological part (understanding collective and individual psychology) and the forth one the trading tools (backtesting, journaling, diaring among others).

Your whole trading system must be designed in a such a robust way that you could have seated on it one century ago, like you can sit on it right now and you could also be able to sit on it in a century BUT you need those 4 feet to remain well seated whatever happens, whenever it happens...

This is what this trading program "HOW TO BUILD A WHOLE TRADING SYSTEM" will teach you if you are ready to learn and start doing your part of the job.

PROGRAM:

I-UNDERSTANDING THE MARKET ECOSYSTEM

II-THE COMMON CHARACTERISTICS OF WINNING AND LOSING TRADERS

III-THE WEAKEST LINK IS YOU!

IV-RISK MANAGEMENT

V-THINKING IN TERMS OF PROBABILITIES

VI- THE TOOLS OF THE WINNING TRADER

VII-DEFINE YOUR EDGE...AND APPLY IT

VIII-EXAMPLE OF A TRADING STRATEGY: SWING TRADING STRATEGY ON US STOCKS

► 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.

► 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

Finance, accounting & economics – clearly explained, with practical support
My name is Kian, an experienced tutor from Bern. I guide students, career starters, and professionals on their journey through the world of numbers—whether in their studies, exam preparation, or in their everyday professional lives.

With my structured, motivating, and practical approach, I'll help you not only solve problems, but also truly understand economic relationships, confidently handle numbers, and confidently apply financial knowledge in real-life situations. My lessons are personalized, accessible, and at eye level.

Who I am – and why I teach:
I have many years of experience teaching financial and economic topics – from accounting to business administration to financial analysis. I teach students from various disciplines as well as professionals who want to expand their business skills.

In addition to my teaching activities, I have participated in various business projects, including budget planning, financial modeling, and cost accounting. This combination of theory and practice makes my teaching particularly realistic and, at the same time, easy to understand.

I love it when complex content suddenly makes sense – and when people realize they can handle business topics confidently and strategically. For me, tutoring is more than just imparting knowledge – it's a collaborative process of developing ideas that builds self-confidence.

What you can expect from me:

-Individual lessons with a focus on finance, bookkeeping, accounting & economics
-Support with exams, homework, projects or professional challenges
-Step-by-step explanations – practical, clear and adapted to your situation
-Communication of business contexts and financial decision-making logic
-Development of long-term numerical understanding and structured thinking
-Flexible lessons in Bern or online – competent, individual & sustainable

Why I can help you understand finances:

Because I know how difficult economics can seem at first glance – and because I can help you look behind the terms, formulas and processes:
How companies tick, how to interpret numbers, and how to make smart decisions from them.

With me, you won't just learn how to make bookings correctly—you'll learn how to think like an entrepreneur. I'll guide you not only in understanding business, but also in working with it confidently.

Learn finance.
Understand how the economy works – and how you can use it to your advantage.
If you are ready to think economically, I am ready to accompany you.
