I am a full-time private tutor in A-Level and GCSE Economics and Business across examination boards. As a qualified teacher (PGCE/QTS) with post graduate degrees in my specialist subjects and 30 years of global corporate experience as a senior executive, and founder of The Edge (the-edge.org), I bring an interactive, engaging, real-world approach to tutorials that helps students not only understand the theory but also apply it effectively in exams to attain top grades.

I am an experienced full-time tutor and qualified teacher of A-level and GCSE Economics and Business (QTS and PGCE) across all examination boards, drawing upon my academic background and 30 years experience in C-Suite leadership positions, from start-ups to multi-national companies and government across the globe, to make the theory come alive and engage my students. I have a strong appreciation of how tutoring needs to complement the work of the class teacher whilst helping the student build confidence with the subject.
My tutoring approach:
• Tailored sessions to meet individual student needs
• Interactive learning using whiteboards, Q&A and discussion
• Break down of complex theories into simple, real-world examples, ensuring a full grasp of key ideas and an ability to apply them effectively
• Focus on exam-specific skills and proven revision techniques
• Training on answering the big mark questions to achieve A* grades
• Deep-dive reviews of student essays with actionable feedback
• Continuous support outside of scheduled sessions
• Progress tracking: Regular assessments and feedback to monitor improvement and adjust strategies as needed.
In addition to supporting my students achieve top grades, I provide them with opportunities to develop their confidence and soft skills required for the next stages of their academic and working careers (www.the-edge.org).
I have a BSc Economics & Business Finance from Brunel, a MBA and MA Organisation Studies from Warwick Business School, as well as a background in sustainability with a PG Dip Carbon Management from University of Edinburgh, and an IEMA associate with accreditation from the CFA and UNPRI in ESG.
I am a member of The Tutor Association, Chartered College of Teaching, with an Enhanced DBS certificate and I complete annual safeguarding training.
I am a fully qualified teacher (QTS) and attained a PGCE with Distinction at Kingston University.
As a tutor my focus is Economics and Business qualifications at A-level across all the main examination boards across the world, with students consistently attaining top grades under my tutorship.
I have experience in teaching students from diverse cultural and social backgrounds, and adapt my tuition for those students who have English as a second language, and special educational needs.
