Hello. My name is Adam Witham, and I am a university economics professor. I have tutored for universities and privately since 2015. I hold a B.A. in Mathematical Economics and Applied Mathematics, M.A. in Economics, and my Ph.D. in Economics.

In 2020, I was identified as a Top 10% tutor with Wyzant. I have background in econometric testing and programming with Stata, R, and EViews. I primarily tutor econometrics, microeconomics, macroeconomics, and applied economic fields; however, I also can tutor courses in statistics, mathematics, and writing.

I enjoy helping students discover how economics applies to the world around them. I look for new ways to progress through material with students in a method that best works for them. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out, and I look forward to working with you!

Writing

At Hampden-Sydney College, I took coursework in rhetoric and passed the Rhetoric Proficiency Exam (RPE) to graduate. This well-known requirement at the college involves students taking a several-hour written exam. An individual must evaluate a claim, provide supporting or opposing evidence, and formulate a logical argument. The faculty readers must unanimously decide whether a student passes the exam. To further my experience in writing, I have published in an academic journal and regularly write papers for economics research.

Highly knowledgeable and patient instructor

He teaches me Intermediate Microeconomics, making it look just like a piece of cake. He is great, humble, amazing, the right instructor that every student in economics should ever go to.

Jean, 19 lessons with Adam

Excellent teacher

Adam helped me so much. I appreciated his coaching approach and how he broke down everything so I could understand. I had a challenge of not only understanding statistics and econometrics but also how to use Stata. I read multiple books and watched many tutorials online but was still not able to fully understand before this session. He was able to zero in on where I was struggling, and enabled me to understand. I really appreciated the coaching approach. Truly an excellent teacher!

Shari, 6 lessons with Adam

Passionate about helping

My sessions with Adam have been nothing short of an “A+“ experience. He is a professional, a creative thinker, and an expert in his field. Currently, I have had a total of three meetings with Adam, and I look forward to continuing my thesis-journey with him. Furthermore, having Adam as a guidepost for the master thesis has been essential as the process is laid-out in a straightforward and digestible manner. Because of these reasons I would highly recommend Adam for a variety of students and professionals alike.

Andrew, 3 lessons with Adam

Very knowledgeable

Adam explains concepts in one of the most difficult courses (econometrics) so clearly and helped me understand concepts I’ve struggled with for over a week in one hour. He’s also very patient!

HELEN, 5 lessons with Adam

Great and Accommodating Teacher

Adam helped me score very highly in my Econometrics course and was flexible with my schedule to pack in lessons prior to the midterm. He was also very willing to help in whatever capacity he could, especially in explaining difficult conceptual aspects of the course and driving me to look at ideas in different ways. Certainly a phenomenal tutor.

Aengus, 2 lessons with Adam

Knowledgeable and helpful

Adam helped with the AP exam review online. He was very knowledgeable and clearly explained questions for the test. He helped build confidence and I would recommend him to others.

Jay, 7 lessons with Adam

Brilliant.

Adam is absolutely the most refreshing person to work with. He has this amazing ability to sense that you are completely lost without you having to say a thing. He writes everything down...the step by step process, helpful notes...he labels everything and it is crystal clear while your in session and reviewing the work he sends you post session. He really is the most patient person. I asked him to explain how to deal with exponents to me like an 8th grader even though I’m in a double masters program and he didn’t even blink and eye. If you think his price is steep well I can assure you I learned more from him in 1 hour than half a semester in my economics class. There are many ways to “skin” some problems however he teaches you the easiest way to understand -it’s usually the quickest but not always because sometimes the best path takes longer but gives you the tools and the foundation needed to solve more problems. I could go on and on but TAKE HIM. He’s worth it.

Rachel, 3 lessons with Adam

professional

I was skeptical at first. However I quickly learned in my first session he is one of the best. Definitely recommend to anyone trying to improve their academic performance.

Sara, 1 lesson with Adam

Lesson on Monopolies : Very patient and helpful with any questions!

I learned about monopolies vs perfect competition. Adam is very patient and explains things in real world terms with real life examples that make the topic easier to understand.

Haleigh, 8 lessons with Adam

Highly Recommend Adam for Econometrics I and Intermediate Microeconomic Theory

Adam has been the best tutor I found on Wyzant. He can walk me through a problem set from start to finish in record time and allow me to understand the topics right after he explains. He is knowledgable in both econometrics and intermediate microeconomic theory, and is in charge of money & banking at Clemson University. Online lessons with Adam are extremely helpful and we use our time well. I am 95% confident that I will pass econometrics thanks to Adam!
