About Malia
I bring an extensive background of success in this field, along with the qualifications which are required to make a positive impact in this role. I have spent the past 19 years working in education, serving in roles that have allowed me to support students from a variety of backgrounds and academic paths. Throughout my career, I have encouraged students to approach learning with determination, resilience, and a strong work ethic. I believe deeply that flexibility, honesty, and integrity are essential qualities in any educational position, and I strive to model those values daily. My professional experience has been broad and well rounded. I have served as a Dean of Students, supporting school culture, student success, and academic interventions. Additionally, I taught AP Economics and AP Government for many years, helping students build critical thinking skills, master challenging content, and prepare for college-level expectations. Beyond the high school setting, I have also worked as a college tutor for multiple San Diego institutions, giving me firsthand insight into the needs of post-secondary learners and the transition from high school to college academics.

1. Warm-Up
Quick check-in: What topics are you struggling with?
Identify any specific homework problems or concepts the student wants to focus on.
Supply and Demand Intro
Brief real-world example: concert tickets, gas prices, baseball tickets, etc.
2. Core Concepts
Demand
Definition: quantities consumers are willing & able to buy at various prices.
Law of Demand: inverse relationship between price & quantity demanded.
Demand Curve: downward sloping.
Determinants (Shifters):
Tastes/preferences
Income (normal vs inferior goods)
Price of related goods (substitutes & complements)
Expectations of future price
Number of buyers
Supply
Definition: quantities producers are willing & able to sell at various prices.
Law of Supply: direct relationship between price & quantity supplied.
Supply Curve: upward sloping.
Determinants (Shifters):
Input prices
Technology
Expectations of future price
Number of sellers
Government tools (taxes, subsidies, regulations)
3. Graphing Practice
Draw a market model together (axes, labels, curves).
Identify equilibrium price and quantity.
Introduce vocabulary: surplus, shortage, clearing price.
4. Shift Scenarios
Walk through several “shock” scenarios:
Demand increases due to celebrity endorsement.
Supply decreases due to natural disaster.
Complement price rises.
Technology improves.
For each:
Identify which curve shifts.
Decide direction (left/right).
Determine new equilibrium.
Explain the intuition.
5. Applied Problems / AP-style Questions
Multiple-choice practice: identify curve shifts & effects.
Free-response-style practice:
“Graph and explain what happens to P and Q when…”
“Explain the difference between a movement along the curve vs. a shift.”
7. Wrap-Up & Next Steps
Review the student's strongest/weakest areas.
