Are you an A-Level student seeking for excellence in Economics? Unlock your academic potential with a top-notch sixth form college Economics lecturer, dedicated to guiding you towards excellence in A-Level Economics through personalised, engaging, and results-driven instruction.

Having taught economics at university and A levels, I have seen many students, including my former students who were later admitted to Oxbridge and the London School of Economics, struggle with Economics due to the fragmented nature of the subject. Whether you're starting A-Level Economics after GCSEs or seeking a head start for your final year 13, I am here to support you. As a dedicated and passionate educator, I create a cheerful and engaging learning environment tailored to A-Level students. My teaching approach emphasizes on critical thinking and problem-solving using mind maps for critical linkages between causes and consequences. I also nurture my students to develop contextual analysis using real world data and chains of reasoning for powerful evaluations ensuring academic success and a deep understanding of Economics.

Tutoring Approach

I believe that every student in A Levels has the potential to study at university. However, A Level students targeting “A” and “A*” grades and aspiring to enter top universities, must not only work harder but also smarter. The difference between students who score A/A* and the rest is similar to the difference between medal winners in an Olympic final and the rest of the finalists.

Many students however, can achieve their potential by focusing on “little things” without forgetting the “big picture” such as the link between Aggregate Supply/Aggregate Demand model and the Phillips Curve in A Level Macroeconomics. Tailored Teaching Methods

Understanding that each student is unique, I adapt my teaching strategies to cater to various learning styles and abilities. I utilize educational technology to enhance learning outcomes and employ methods such as mind maps, backward chaining and chain of reasoning to solve complex problems in Economics and Mathematics. My consultancy-style approach encourages students to adopt real-world problem-solving skills with a focus on achieving their end goals.
