About

Hi, I’m James; a law student and commerce graduate in Finance, with minors in Econometrics and Accounting. I’m currently employed as an academic tutor with the University of Sydney and Sydney University Sport and Fitness. I also work as an investment banking analyst with Blue Mount capital and a senior subject manager at Atomi Education. I’ve previously interned at Focal Point Partners Investment Banking in Los Angeles, whilst on scholarship the Sydney University Business School’s Industry Placement Program. I was also part of the 2016 Sydney University CFA Institute Research Challenge Team which made the national finals. Using my finance experience in industry and academia I can help you get a good grasp on the most difficult topics, and provide constructive assessment and exam advice.

Here's what some students have to say about My Uni Tutor...

Hanah, University of Sydney - "Mike has tutored me for multiple subjects including ECMT1020 (Econometrics B) ECOS2001 (Intermeidate Micro) and ECOS3011 (Public Finance), and is the easily the best tutor I've had. His easy going nature and ability to clearly deconstruct difficult concepts makes him a really top tutor. There are very few concepts Mike can't explain, and with his help, I've gone from passes and credits to distinctions and high distinctions. Mike is a champ in the economics and business faculties- I recommend him to everyone."

 

Megan, Macquarie University - "Mike was an amazing tutor. I had no prior knowledge of economics (ECON 111) or econometrics (ECON241) before starting my degree and having Mike help me through both really helped. I couldn't have done it without him." (


"

Ryan, Introductory Microeconomics, Swinburne Online - Mike is the best tutor I have ever had by far. I had no prior knowledge in economics and received a distinction for the unit. He was great at explaining concepts and definitions in terms I would understand. Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!" 

Olivia, UTS - "Mike tutored me for Intermediate Microeconomics (23567) at UTS. He is a great tutor, has a very good understanding of economics and explains concepts very well. My marks went from a passing grade to HD with the help of Mike."
