I graduated from Master of Finance (HEC lausanne) with average grade 5.6. I can cover the following subjects:
1) mathematics for economics and finance
2) econometric
3) investment
4) empirical method
5) derivatives
6) asset pricing
7) international finance
8) real options

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.

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 :)

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.

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.
