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, unemployment, and economic growth trade-offs. The Phillips Curve and long-run vs. short-run economic analysis also trip up many students because they require thinking about cause-and-effect relationships across multiple economic variables simultaneously. A tutor can break these interconnected concepts into digestible pieces and use real-world examples to show how policy decisions ripple through the economy.
Graph mastery is essential for AP Macroeconomics success, and many students struggle with correctly shifting curves and identifying equilibrium changes. A tutor can teach you the underlying economic logic behind each graph—why the AD curve slopes downward, what causes a shift versus a movement along the curve, and how to read policy scenarios and translate them into graph changes. Regular practice with different scenarios (supply shocks, policy changes, international trade effects) builds the intuition needed to draw graphs quickly and accurately on the exam.
Many students memorize policy tools without understanding their mechanisms and limitations. A tutor can help you trace the causal chain: how the Fed's interest rate changes affect investment and consumption, or how government spending creates multiplier effects through the economy. Understanding the differences between expansionary and contractionary policy, the time lags involved, and why policies sometimes have unintended consequences will deepen your grasp far beyond memorization. Working through case studies of real policy decisions helps cement these relationships.
The FRQ section rewards clear economic reasoning and correct graph work, but students often lose points by not explaining the mechanism behind their answers or by drawing inaccurate graphs. A tutor can teach you to structure responses that identify the problem, explain the policy or shock, show the graphical impact, and describe the real-world effects on key variables like GDP, inflation, and unemployment. Practice with released exam questions under timed conditions helps you develop the discipline to allocate time wisely and avoid common mistakes like forgetting to label axes or missing secondary effects.
The 60 multiple-choice questions in 70 minutes require quick decision-making, but rushing often leads to misreading scenarios or overlooking key details. A tutor can help you develop a strategy for identifying easier questions to tackle first, recognizing common wrong-answer traps (like choosing policies that move in the right direction but with wrong mechanisms), and knowing when to skip a difficult question and return to it. Building speed comes from practicing with full-length practice tests and learning to recognize question patterns—like distinguishing between questions asking about short-run versus long-run effects.
Exchange rates, balance of payments, and international trade policy involve multiple moving parts and counterintuitive relationships that students often find abstract. For example, understanding why a stronger dollar can hurt U.S. exporters or how capital flows affect exchange rates requires connecting financial markets to trade flows. A tutor can use concrete examples—like how a foreign recession affects U.S. exports, or why interest rate differentials drive currency movements—to make these relationships tangible and help you predict outcomes in different scenarios.
Taking full-length, timed practice tests is crucial, but the real learning happens in the review process. A tutor can help you analyze your mistakes to identify patterns—are you missing policy mechanism questions, struggling with graph interpretation, or misunderstanding long-run equilibrium concepts? After each practice test, focusing on your weak areas with targeted review and additional practice questions on those specific topics is far more effective than retaking full tests. Spacing out practice tests throughout your study period allows time for improvement between attempts.
Score gains depend on where you're starting and how consistently you engage with tutoring and practice. Students who work with a tutor to identify specific knowledge gaps and develop targeted study strategies often see meaningful improvement—typically 2–4 points on the 5-point AP scale when they commit to regular sessions and practice. The biggest gains come from mastering graph interpretation and policy mechanisms, since these skills directly transfer to both multiple-choice and free-response questions. Consistent effort over several months yields better results than cramming, so starting tutoring early in the course is ideal.
