It clicked in class. Until the midterm.

Finance tutoring for Georgetown students.

Business Financial Management is the foundation course for McDonough undergrads, and finance majors go on to Corporate Valuation, which is hands-on and detailed. The first course has to be solid for the second to make sense.

Georgetown

Where students get stuck.

Time value of money

Everything in Business Financial Management builds on it. If it's shaky, later chapters feel like memorization.

Valuation mechanics

Corporate Valuation expects you to build the model yourself. We work on the steps until you can do them without a template.

Ratios and statements

Financial analysis depends on reading statements quickly. We practice until the ratios tell you something.

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.

Can you help me before Corporate Valuation starts?

Yes. A review of free cash flow, discount rates, and statements makes the first weeks much smoother.

Do you help Georgetown MBA students too?

Yes. Send me your syllabus and we'll start with what your course covers.

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.
