Job Title: Online Wolfram Mathematica & Computational Economics Tutor

Format: 1:1 Online Live Sessions

Compensation: ₹800 / hour

Experience Required: Minimum 6+ Years

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Wolfram Mathematica and Quantitative Economics Tutor to deliver personalized, 1:1 online lectures to an undergraduate student. At UCL, Wolfram Mathematica is integrated into highly quantitative modules - specifically ECON0114 (Computational / Mathematical Economics) and ECON0010 (Mathematics for Economics) - focusing on transforming abstract economic theory into working symbolic and numeric computational models. The ideal candidate must combine a postgraduate background in Economics/Mathematics with strong hands-on fluency in the Wolfram Language and experience teaching international university students.

Key Responsibilities

- Conduct engaging, hands-on 1:1 live online tutoring sessions using Wolfram Mathematica Notebooks.
- Deliver structured instruction aligned with UCL’s ECON0114 and ECON0010 computational and mathematical methods modules.
- Guide the student in translating economic theory (microeconomic optimization, agile macro models, and game theory) into working symbolic and numeric code.
- Assist with coursework, live coding exercises, simulation building, and exam preparation in line with UCL standards.

Candidate Requirements

- Education: Master’s degree (M.A. / M.Sc.) or Ph.D. in Economics, Mathematical Economics, Econometrics, or a closely related quantitative field.
- Technical Proficiency: Strong command of Wolfram Mathematica (functional programming, symbolic algebra, calculus, dynamic modeling, and interactive visualization).
- Experience: Minimum 6 years of teaching experience at the undergraduate/university level or in advanced international curriculum tutoring.
- International Exposure:



Proven track record of teaching international students (familiarity with UK university standards, specifically UCL curricula, is a strong plus).
- Technical Setup: High-speed internet, Wolfram Mathematica installed for live screen-sharing/coding, digital writing pad/stylus, and fluency in English.

Course Topics Covered (UCL ECON0114 & ECON0010)

- Phase 1: Core Wolfram Language Syntax & Notebooks The Notebook Environment & Hierarchical Cell Organization Functional Programming Basics (Pure Functions, Map, Apply) List Manipulation (Matrices, Nested Vectors & Data Structures) Visualizing Variables (2D, 3D & Contour Plotting for Economic Curves)
- Phase 2: Mathematical Foundation for Economics Linear Algebra for Macroeconomics (Vector/Matrix Operations, Gaussian Elimination & Cramer’s Rule) Multivariate Calculus & Comparative Statics (Symbolic Differentiation, Partial Derivatives, Total Differentials & Implicit Differentiation)
- Phase 3: Microeconomic Optimization (UCL Core) Unconstrained Optimization (Critical Points & Hessian Matrices for Concavity/Convexity) Constrained Optimization (Symbolic Lagrange Multipliers, Utility Maximization, Cost Minimization, Demand Functions, Shephard’s Lemma & Roy’s Identity) Interactive Simulation (Real-Time Equilibrium & Parameter Shift Modeling using Manipulate)
- Phase 4: Dynamic Modeling & Game Theory Difference & Differential Equations (Dynamic Market Models & Solow-Swan Macroeconomic Growth Models) Network Theory & Game Theory (Computational Nash Equilibria, Payoff Modeling & Economic Network Theory)
- Phase 5: Economic Data & Econometrics Curated Socioeconomic & Financial Data Integration (FinancialData & CountryData) Basic Empirical Data Fitting & Linear Regression Modeling (LinearModelFit)

Compensation & Perks

- Rate: ₹800 per hour
- Mode: 100% Remote / Online (1:1 instruction)

Consistent Schedule: Regular hours supporting a full academic year curriculum.
