My goal is to provide students with an understanding of the topic that is tailored to the student's learning style while providing him or her broad insights into the issues. Quality writing, speaking, and argument can only come with a full understanding of facts and context, and having that will distinguish my students over their peers. Tailoring the material to the student will be an important way for him or her to, not only, understand...

...youth, I developed a passion for wanting to impart practical knowledge and skills to them. The bulk of my experience in tutoring has been in the form of 1-on-1 in-person sessions. When I tutor, my main goal is to get the core of the message across in as simple terms as possible. This is usually accomplished through an analogy/metaphor to which the student can relate. Then once the foundation is established, we add in complexity...

High School Economics Tutoring FAQ
High school economics is an important class that teaches students about money, both on a personal level and the wider scale. If you or your child are struggling to keep up with the rest of the class, Varsity Tutors can find you a high school economics tutor who can help you work toward your academic goals.
Here are some of the key concepts you can review during high school economics tutoring sessions:
The concept of scarcity
Division of labor
The difference between micro and macro economics
Supply and Demand
Economic indicators (GDP, etc.)
The Federal Reserve System
International trade
Personal Finance
High school economics tutoring is flexible enough to focus specifically on your areas of need. For example, if you understand supply and demand but struggle with the complexities of the Federal Reserve system, concentrating on the latter makes your study time more efficient. You can also ask your tutor any questions you have as you have them, allowing you to seek clarification whenever you do not understand something.
In addition, high school economics tutoring allows you to work in a one-on-one learning environment. There are no other students around, so you won't be tempted to socialize instead of study. Likewise, you may choose the tempo of every session. If your class is moving too quickly for you to keep up with, your high school economics tutor can slow things down so it's not as overwhelming. Alternatively, they can also pick up the pace if you don't find your class engaging enough.
Economics is typically placed under the social studies umbrella, meaning you might need to compose essays for your class. If you're not confident in your writing abilities, your tutor can show you how to outline your thoughts so that you don't forget any important details. Seeing everything you want to say in one place can also make essays seem less daunting, making it easier to get done. You can also practice your active reading skills during high school economics tutoring sessions to maximize what you get out of textbook readings.
