Annie
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am currently a second year medical student. I was a Physiological Sciences major at UCLA (class of 2015), and pursued research during my gap year between undergrad and medical school.
Tony
Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.
Quinn
Calculus Tutor • +17 Subjects
I am willing to address any issue with an open mind and I try to develop strategies that play to a student's strengths. I would like to think I am very approachable and personable, and I have had very positive experiences with many students in the past using this philosophy. Outside of academics, I love playing basketball and watching sports, as well as chilling with friends, listening to music, and keeping up with politics and current affairs.
Matthew
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +39 Subjects
I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!

Charles
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals! Hobbies: art, books, running, reading, music, writing

Frequently Asked Questions
Students typically struggle most with aggregate demand and supply (AD/AS) models, understanding how monetary and fiscal policy interact with the broader economy, and grasping the nuances of inflation versus deflation. Phillips curve relationships, foreign exchange markets, and the distinction between nominal and real GDP also trip up many students. A tutor can break down these abstract concepts using real-world examples—like how Federal Reserve interest rate changes ripple through employment and inflation—making the connections between theory and practice much clearer.
AP Macroeconomics is heavily graph-based, and tutors who specialize in this subject excel at teaching you how to read, interpret, and draw diagrams correctly. They'll help you understand what shifts cause movements along curves versus shifts of entire curves, and how to predict outcomes when multiple variables change simultaneously. Tutors can also teach you the verbal explanations that accompany each graph—the AP exam rewards students who can articulate why a curve shifted, not just identify that it did. Regular practice with different scenarios ensures you can apply these models flexibly on test day.
The challenge lies in tracking how policies interact with inflation, unemployment, and growth simultaneously. For example, expansionary fiscal policy (increased government spending) can raise interest rates, which then crowds out private investment—but the net effect depends on the economy's current state. Tutors help students build mental models by walking through step-by-step cause-and-effect chains, using specific scenarios (recession vs. overheating economy) to show why the same policy can have different outcomes. This conceptual clarity is essential for free-response questions on the AP exam.
Time management is critical—the multiple-choice section requires quick identification of the correct economic principle, while free-response questions demand clear labeling of graphs and logical explanation chains. A tutor can teach you to sketch graphs quickly and accurately, identify which policy tool the question is asking about, and avoid common traps like confusing correlation with causation. They'll also help you practice writing concise explanations that hit all the points graders look for: the policy action, the mechanism, and the final outcome on key variables.
A tutor can administer practice tests and analyze your performance by unit—whether you're struggling with international economics, financial markets, or long-run growth concepts. They'll pinpoint whether your errors stem from misunderstanding the underlying economics or from careless mistakes in graph interpretation. Once weak areas are identified, tutors design targeted practice with increasing difficulty, ensuring you build confidence in each topic before moving to exam-level problems. This diagnostic approach is far more efficient than reviewing everything equally.
Free-response questions require you to draw and label graphs correctly, then explain the economic mechanisms at work—a skill that improves dramatically with guided practice. A tutor will teach you the standard format graders expect: clear axes labels, accurate curves, and directional shifts with arrows. They'll also help you practice writing explanations that connect policy actions to outcomes, avoiding vague language. Tutors can simulate the time pressure of the actual exam, giving you feedback on both accuracy and speed so you finish all questions with time to review.
Score improvement depends on your starting point and consistency. Students who come in with conceptual gaps and work with a tutor 1-2 times weekly often see 2-4 point improvements on the 1-5 AP scale within 8-12 weeks, particularly if they're already scoring 2-3. Students aiming for a 4 or 5 typically need more intensive work on free-response quality and timed practice. The biggest gains come from identifying specific misconceptions early and building strong fundamentals in units like monetary policy and international economics before tackling complex multi-unit scenarios.
Look for tutors who can explain economic concepts using clear cause-and-effect logic and real-world examples—not just definitions. They should be comfortable drawing and interpreting all AP Macroeconomics graphs fluently and know the common student misconceptions in each unit. Strong tutors also understand the AP exam's specific expectations: how free-response answers are graded, which topics appear most frequently, and which graph-and-explanation combinations trip up students. Experience with timed practice and familiarity with recent AP exams ensures your preparation stays current.
