"Hi! I'm Anna, an Instructor for Intermediate Microeconomic Theory (ECN 312) at Arizona State University and a PhD candidate in Economics with 7+ years of tutoring experience in math and economics. I bring both classroom teaching expertise and advanced academic credentials to help students master complex material.

I currently teach at ASU while pursuing my PhD in Economics, where I also earned my M.S. in Economics (2022). I was a visiting student at NYU (Spring 2025). My doctoral coursework includes rigorous training in calculus, real analysis, and advanced mathematical methods alongside PhD-level microeconomics, macroeconomics, and econometrics. My research focuses on environmental macroeconomics, applying advanced econometric methods to energy markets and environmental policy. I've received multiple academic awards in economic theory and quantitative analysis.

I also bring extensive one-on-one teaching experience: 7+ years of tutoring from middle school through undergraduate levels, teaching roles as a TA for Environmental Economics and Microeconomics Principles (2022–2024), and 4 years of high school teaching.

My approach focuses on identifying foundational gaps and building toward complex concepts through clear intuition and structured problem-solving. I help students see how topics connect, gaining lasting confidence and independence.

Subjects I specialize in:

• Microeconomics — consumer and producer theory, market equilibrium, externalities, public goods, game theory

• Statistics & Probability — hypothesis testing, probability distributions, statistical inference, sampling theory

• Econometrics & Data Analysis (R, Stata, Python) — from regression to research-level modeling

• International Trade & Macroeconomics — trade models, gravity equations, open-economy, policy analysis

My goal is to help students not only prepare for exams, but also build both long-lasting skills and confidence in economics and mathematics." less...
