Are you looking for a patient, reliable, professional and most importantly KNOWLEDGEABLE accounting TUTOR?

I have accurate knowledge of accounting, accounting principles, financial accounting, financial reporting and internal controls is ESSENTIAL to successful business practice and essential to earning a good grade in your accounting classes!

Are you about to tackle those MBA or undergraduate accounting classes this summer? Not looking forward to it? I can help!

Studying/learning accounting is exactly like learning a brand-new language. Let me serve as your ambassador to this new language.

My Background:

I can match your availability with some advance planning. I prefer late afternoons and/or evenings and weekends, but I am flexible and eager to help you learn.

I prefer to tutor individuals, but am open to tutoring small study groups.

I can meet you on campus or at a mutually agreed upon place.
