About the instructor
Program Director
Jay Moulton
I first learned Economics some time ago. I had no idea if I would pass that course or even survive Harvard Business School. I found it tough sledding, but I survived and actually exceeded my expectations. So, many years later, when I had the opportunity to choose a college-level introductory course that would most benefit from short, broadcast animations and videos, I chose Economics.I’ve worked with hundreds of professors, teachers, consultants, PhDs, filmmakers, animators, and students to identify and illustrate the real-world economics concepts that give learners the biggest headaches, then to solve those problems with some of the best educational videos on the planet.As a corporate finance and turnaround specialist, I've successfully applied these principles to my own businesses and to others across North America. I remain a trusted advisor to companies and have the capacity to add new clients.I promise you that, with your effort and these videos, we’ll help you exceed your expectations too.PS: If you have questions or want to schedule a call, please send me an email.
"The films have a fast tempo that respond to students' attention spans and will help many tremendously. The animations are clear, sleek and understandable." Emilie Johnsson, Student, Concordia University
"The videos are very concise and to the point...the application of real world examples makes them very easy to follow ... perfect length." Ryan Besse, Student, McGill University
"I think this effort is outstanding and I'm recommending it to my students." Mike Fladlien, Economics Teacher, Iowa
"These guys demonstrated time and time again, their understanding of what it takes to create truly successful and engaging educational videos." Daniel Rivet, Executive Director, Ideeclic
