Serving as an economics prefect and TA for introductory microeconomics at Carleton College meant Reed wasn't just learning concepts like elasticity, market structures, and government intervention — he was breaking them down for other students in both classroom sessions and one-on-one settings. That teaching experience translates directly to the IB Economics skill of turning a supply-and-demand diagram into the kind of step-by-step written explanation that earns full evaluation marks.

Logan's physics and writing background is an unconventional combination for IB Economics, but it maps well onto what the course actually rewards — translating diagrams into precise written analysis and reasoning through cause-and-effect chains like how a shift in aggregate demand ripples through employment and inflation. His experience teaching essay structure and argumentation across multiple subjects means he can sharpen the evaluation paragraphs where most students lose marks.

Rohan earned his economics degree and then kept using it — his subject list spans econometrics, microeconomics, and college-level economics, so the theoretical models IB students encounter (comparative advantage, market failure, fiscal policy tools) are concepts he's worked with well beyond the introductory level. That depth shows up especially when students need to connect a correctly drawn diagram to the kind of precise, definition-rich evaluation paragraph that separates a 5 from a 7. Rated 4.9 by students.

Currently studying economics at MIT, Afton is immersed in the same macro and micro theory that IB Economics papers test — aggregate demand models, market structures, elasticity — but at a level of rigor that makes breaking down IB-level concepts feel natural. She's especially useful for students struggling to connect the diagrams to their written analysis, since her economics coursework demands exactly that kind of precise, model-driven argumentation every week.

Working at Kraft Heinz gave William a front-row seat to the microeconomic decisions IB Economics actually tests — pricing strategies, costs of production, and how firms behave in oligopolistic markets. He pairs that corporate experience with strong essay-writing chops from his English degree, which is exactly the combination students need when Paper 1 asks them to evaluate a policy and the diagram alone won't earn full marks.

Experienced portfolio manager, strategist and published author with a demonstrated history of working in the financial services industry. Skilled in Asset Management, Equities, Bonds, Investment Strategies, and Capital Markets. Strong finance professional with a MBA focused in Finance, General from University of Southern California - Marshall School of Business. Series 65, 7, 63, 24, CFA, FRM

Mark's economics major at Tufts means the core IB syllabus — market failure, elasticity, fiscal and monetary policy — draws on material he studied in depth, not surface-level familiarity. Where he adds particular value is on the essay side: his international relations training and upcoming Duke Law trajectory built the kind of structured, multi-perspective argumentation that Paper 1 evaluation responses reward. Rated 4.9 by students.

Tutoring for both the Economics and Mathematics departments at TCU while earning his BS in Economics gave Mason a dual fluency that IB Economics constantly demands — the quantitative precision for elasticity and multiplier problems alongside the conceptual depth to argue whether a policy actually works. He's now pursuing a Master of Public Administration, which means the real-world government intervention debates that show up on Paper 1 evaluation questions are things he studies professionally, not just textbook scenarios.

Carmen's Literature degree built the exact skill IB Economics evaluation questions quietly test hardest: constructing a layered argument where each sentence earns its place, moving from claim through evidence to nuanced counterpoint. She applies that close-reading discipline to Paper 1 prompts, teaching students to dissect stimulus material the way she'd break apart a passage — extracting the argument before attempting a response. Her 35 ACT confirms the analytical sharpness she brings to both the quantitative and essay sides of the course.

Between a Master's in Business and Marketing and a Master's in Public Health Administration with a finance focus, Tallat has studied economics from two very different angles — the market-driven logic of business strategy and the policy-driven reality of public resource allocation. That dual lens is exactly what IB Economics evaluation questions reward, since students need to argue both the efficiency case and the equity case when assessing interventions like healthcare subsidies or indirect taxation.
