Economic Tutoring
Economic Tutoring
The study of economics takes time to master. It’s understandable if you don’t get it the first time.
Nothing can be done if you don’t understand what you don’t know.
To succeed in any level economics class, it is highly advised to attend all classes and do all homework assignment.
If you are still struggling with the economic concepts or equations, consult with your teacher during his or her office hours.
An additional resource to help students through economic classes is to seek tutoring.
The Temple University Math and Science Resource Center offers a few ways to help understand economic material.
The MSRC tutors individuals on a first come, first serve basis. They are only required to tutor students in the INTRO and INTERMEDIATE courses taught at Temple U.
The tutoring schedule for these classes can be found here:

In addition, TES is willing to handle any questions or concerns.
Please compile a list of topics and questions before you attend any tutoring session.

TES/ODE
