Finance and business tutoring for families in Zurich, Geneva, and Switzerland's boarding schools.

Switzerland's international and boarding schools teach the IB Diploma, AP courses, or both, to students from all over the world. Business and economics are where the numbers start to count, and I work from your student's own class, in Swiss time.

Local schools

Zurich International School, TASIS Switzerland, Leysin American School, Ecolint, Collège du Léman, Aiglon, Le Rosey, Beau Soleil

Zurich International School and TASIS offer IB Business Management and IB Economics alongside AP. Leysin American School teaches AP economics and AP Business with Personal Finance. The IB schools here all offer IB Economics.

IB Diploma

IB Business Management and IB Economics

SL and HL. Finance and accounts, Paper 2 numbers, and the research project in Business Management. Diagrams, data response, and the HL policy paper in Economics.

American curriculum

AP® Business with Personal Finance

The newest AP course, with the first exam in May 2027. If your student's school adds it, I've already mapped all 5 units and 31 topics and built 940 practice questions.

University

Corporate finance, before or during university

Many students here leave for universities in the US, the UK, and Canada. Corporate finance and financial statements before the first year make business and economics degrees much easier. It's the same material I teach college and MBA students.

Where students get stuck.

Boarding schedules

Boarding students have full days and little free time. Sessions go straight at the topic that's slipping instead of reteaching a whole unit.

Studying in a second language

Many students here learn in English as a second or third language. They often understand the economics and lose marks on how they explain it, so we practice short, precise answers.

A new AP course

AP Business with Personal Finance is brand new, and nobody has old exams to practice with yet. I've already built 940 practice questions for it.

For parents

Parents usually book, often from another country. Your student joins on Zoom from a dorm, a school study room, or home, after school on weekdays or on Saturday and Sunday, in Swiss time. Send me the course, the level, and what's giving your student trouble, and I'll tell you honestly whether I can help.

How a session works

Diagnosis first. Then the fix.

  1. 01

    Before we meet

    Send me what you're stuck on: a problem set, slides, your last midterm, a practice exam, last week's quiz.

  2. 02

    On Zoom

    You walk me through a problem out loud. It usually takes a few minutes to hear where the reasoning goes sideways. We fix that piece and rebuild from there, so you know why each step works.

  3. 03

    Before we finish

    The real test: a fresh problem with new numbers and different wording, the way a midterm would ask it, and you solve it yourself. I don't complete assignments or hand over answers. You leave able to do the work.

Questions

Before you book.

What time zone are sessions in?

Central European Time (CET, or CEST in summer). Sessions run on weekday afternoons after school, plus Saturdays and Sundays.

Can boarding students book sessions themselves?

Yes, though a parent usually books the first one. After that we set a weekly time that fits the school's study schedule.

What currency are sessions billed in?

US dollars, $250 an hour. Your card converts it at the day's rate.

Will tutoring get in the way of my student's teacher?

No. I work from the teacher's materials and never complete graded work, so sessions support the class instead of replacing it.

Is tutoring allowed under my school's honor code?

Tutoring on concepts and practice problems is generally fine, but policies on graded work vary by course. I don't complete graded assignments. Check your syllabus's collaboration policy, and if you're unsure, ask your professor.

Get started

Bring the problem you’re stuck on.
