It clicked in class. Until the midterm.
Finance tutoring for Princeton students.
Princeton has no business school, so finance lives in the Economics department and the Finance minor. ECO 362 and ECO 363 are the minor's two core courses, usually taken junior year, and neither has a substitute.

The courses

Princeton
Where students get stuck.
Theory-heavy problem sets
Princeton's courses lean on economic theory. We connect the models to the calculations you're asked to do.
Asset pricing tests
Testing models against data is where ECO 362 gets hard. We walk through the logic of each test.
Company valuation
ECO 363 asks you to value whole companies. We build it from cash flows up.
How a session works
Diagnosis first. Then the fix.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
Your tutor
Studied it. Worked in it. Now I teach it.
I’m Chi Odogwu. I have a B.S. in Business with a finance specialization from Liberty University, earned summa cum laude in three years, and a Master’s in International Economics and Finance from Brandeis. I tutored IB students in grad school, did valuation and private equity consulting at PwC, taught MBA finance at Florida State, and spent three years as an adjunct professor teaching Business Finance.
Questions
Before you book.
Can you help with the Finance minor electives too?
Yes. Send me the syllabus for the elective you're taking.
Should I prep before junior year?
It helps. Time value of money and basic valuation first make both core courses easier.
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.
