International Economics - A Comprehensive Economics Course

Hi, I'm Brad and I’m thrilled you are interested in joining me for this International Economics course—the perfect place to explore how global trade and business shape our lives.

Economics isn’t just about numbers or theories; it’s about people, decisions, and the interconnected world we all share.

This course includes 35+ video lessons and downloadable notes that cover:

• Introduction to International Economics

• The Benefits and Drawbacks of Global Free Trade

• Protectionism: Tariffs, Subsidies, and Quotas Explained

• Floating and Fixed Exchange Rate Systems

• The Relationship Between Exchange Rates and International Trade

• Balance of Payments: How International Trade is Accounted For

• Economic Integration and Trading Blocs

And, of course, a love for Economics that I hope is contagious!

I teach Economics because it fascinates me. It’s the study of human behavior—how we make choices, interact, and respond in an economic setting. But it’s also so much more than that. Economics provides the tools to better understand global politics, cultural dynamics, and the tensions shaping our world today.

This course is designed to empower you with the knowledge and insights to think critically about international trade, its impact on your daily life, and its influence on the global economy.

A Weekly Bonus

As part of this course, you’ll receive a subscription to my weekly newsletter, Just One Thing. Each Monday, you’ll get a two-minute breakdown of one essential economic concept, delivered straight to your inbox. It’s a quick and stress-free way to expand your understanding of economics, one idea at a time.

I’ve been lucky to see the world through a unique lens—as a former Peace Corps Volunteer, a graduate of Duke University, and someone who has traveled to over 55 countries. These experiences deeply influence how I teach economics, with real-world examples, a global perspective, and a passion for making these concepts relatable to everyone.

Economics is more than charts and data—it’s about people, stories, and understanding the world we live in.

I’m excited to be a part of the learning journey with you through International Economics.
