I have studied a BA in PPE, and also have an MA in Politics as well as an MSc in Economics. I have a knack for grinding down on complex problems until they look easy, and I love doing this with students and watching how things start to make sense to them. As regards language teaching: I am a German native speaker. What I think is even more important, though, is that I have learned several languages, both in school, but also since, in my free time (including French, Spanish, Portuguese and Russian), so I am well aware of how students learn languages and which aspects may be less intuitive than others.

Christian's last review in Economics from Damilola: Class that we just did. 90 minutes It was last min but the class was really great and helpful.
I have tutored in maths & economics for six years, ranging from 7-18 years old. I am also a qualified teacher, with three years of teaching experience in a secondary school. For two of these years I was the Curriculum Leader for Maths & Economics, and was in charge of overhauling the curriculum in both subjects, planning and creating assessments, and supporting students who were falling behind or who needed challenging. This means I have wealth of experience in planning lessons to support students at all levels, including those with special educational needs; I have worked with many pupils with SEN, from dyslexia to autism, both as a teacher and tutor. Creating engaging resources and lessons which address difficulties students have in accessing or understanding the subject is at the heart of what I do.
Samantha's last completed Economics job with Alex: 1-2 hrs/week - My son, Jack, is going into Upper sixth and is currently predicted an A/B in Economics A level but he wants to get an A* and has done that in some essays/tests but not all. The college are reviewing predictions at the moment so it may go up but he would like tutoring to give him the best chance of an A*. Ideally we are looking at either 1 or 2 hours a week. Thanks.
Samantha's last review in Economics from Rachel: Another amazing session!
I have 8 years of on-ground teaching experience. Since last two years, I have teaching Economics, Statistics and Econometrics online.
Neha's last completed Economics job with Abhinav: Over 2 hrs/week - I am struggling with paper 1 and need help overall
Neha's last review in Economics from AHmad: she is really helpful
I have already had multiple happy clients in previous tutoring roles, who helped to take that step up from B to A* or D to B. I undertook my teacher training (PGCE) at the UCL Institute of Education, the number 1 teacher training course in the world. I have worked throughout the East of England, in London, and at Abbey College International school in Cambridge. In addition, I am a current examiner for A level economics for a popular exam board. These experiences allow me to guarantee you an experience tailored to your needs. I use past paper training and exam technique to maximise your ability to perform under pressure.
Ross's last completed Economics job with Gemma: 1-2_HOURS - Revision, help with case studies and key terms/knowledge
Ross's last review in Economics from Patrick : Marking feedback Great feedback
I passionately believe in students achieving their potential and enjoy the role of personal tutoring to further aid students learning. I graduated with a BA (Hons) in Business and Economics (2:1) and have worked for a number of large organisations offering a variety of depth and experience. Online tutoring is about helping students form around the world to access education via the platform of the internet, to help them succeed at their studies. Firstly, I like to make an initial meeting to understand the needs and objectives of the personal tutoring before developing a detailed plan of the outline of personal tutoring support. I am keen to ensure that both parents and students alike are happy with the service and will accommodate additional requests. I like to ensure that the learner is both enthused and engaged in the tutoring sessions and have a range of resources and assessment techniques.

Trevor's last completed Economics job with Lula: Over 2 hrs/week - I just started economics and I don’t know much about the subject. I’m in my first year of A levels and want to get at least an A
Trevor's last review in Economics from MOHAMMED: Macroeconomics Awesome!
I have been teaching Economics, Statistics and Econometrics since I was in college. After leaving college, I became a full-time professional tutor. I have worked with students who were complete beginners, as well as those who were facing challenges in mastering advanced topics.
I completely understand the initial struggle in decoding the concepts and formulas. I am adept in breaking down these concepts so that students can understand them. I use simple examples so that students can make sense of these topics. I don't encourage memorization and simply recalling the formulas, instead, I focus on the 'why' and 'how'.
I understand that every student has a different way of understanding things. Some students understand the concepts when explained through analogies, others when shown mathematical foundation behind them. I modify my teaching methodology depending on what the student is comfortable with.

Economics job with Dan:
Over 2 hrs/week - I've taken 3 years off from university due to health, but will be taking my 2nd year exams in August before starting my 3rd year in September. I need some 1-to-1 tuition for any of my 2nd year Macroeconomics, Microeconomics or Statistics and Econometrics exams.
I have attached some past exam papers; the Exams for each subject will be a combination of term 1 and term 2 papers.
I only have 3 months left to revise, so I'm looking for someone who can methodically work through some past papers with me and mark my work etc.
Shubh's last review in Economics from ainab: Excellent experience, acceded all my expectations. Shubham was very supportive and accommodating to all my academic requirements and needs. Also made the time in a short period for me to reach my goals.
I have run a YouTube revision channel providing videos on a range of topics since 2013 which has received over 1.2 million views. I have also provided one-to-one tutoring to both GCSE and primary school pupils.
I am very academically capable, having gained a First Class degree (placing third in the year) in Economics and Management from the University of Oxford, 3 A*s in Economics, Maths and English at A-Level, an A in AS Further Maths and 10 A*s at GCSE.
Dani's last completed Economics job with Jaya: 1-2 hrs/week - My son has opted for Economics in GCSE . He is aligned to OCR curriculum. Need help
Dani's last review in Economics from Nicola: PS very good
I have experience teaching over 60 students including A-level candidates and university undergraduates. I hold a First from the LSE in Economics and have been teaching for over two years.
Studying for your exams is hard work and stressful and I try to make the process a bit easier. My tutorials don’t just aim to teach economics but how to study efficiently and build exam technique.
Even for the best student, trying to guess what the examiner wants can be very hard. I use my years of experience studying and teaching economics and the hundreds of mock exam answers students have written for me to guide students towards the top grades.
A-Levels
I have extensive experience across a variety of A-level exam board including Edexcel, AQA, OCR and WJEC. I am also familiar with the Scottish Higher and Advanced Higher system and the IB.
Over the past two years, I have taught approximately 25 A-level students and aim to improve their grade by a minimum of two levels.
Here are the things I find students struggle with the most and how I help them improve:
Problem: Essay Questions (especially 25-mark questions)
Solution: proper essay planning, detailed feedback, timed practice
Problem: Evaluation
Solution: proper essay structure, signposting
Problem: Running out of time
Solution: Timed practice questions over and over again!
Problem: Multi-choice questions
Solution: Timed practice, process of elimination
University
I have direct experience with introductory and intermediate economics modules across most top UK universities.
In particular, I have experience teaching microeconomics, macroeconomics, economic history, statistics, mathematics and econometrics.
I can help with providing feedback and guidance on academic writing including summative essays and dissertations.
I have extensive knowledge of the following courses at LSE:
EC100, EC102, EC201, EC210, EC220, EC311
EH101, EH207, EH237, EH240, EH304

Sam's last completed Economics job with Jonathan: 1-2 hrs/week - I'm terrible at self learning and need help
Sam's last review in Economics from Nikolai: Macroeconomics Year 1, with essay practice homework. very good lesson, engaging, explained essay approach well
I have several years of experience lecturing in economics at a leading UK university, and have PhD, MSc and BSc (Hons.) degrees in economics. I have been a professional tutor since 2014, during which time I have had the pleasure of working one-on-one with many students to develop their understanding of their course material, as well as their academic study skills. I am an associate fellow of the Higher Education Academy which reflects my commitment to honing my own teaching abilities.
I appreciate that every student has their own strengths and preferred method of learning. As such, I take the time to understand the needs of each of my students and adapt my tutoring approach as appropriate. I aim to develop my students’ confidence by encouraging them to share their knowledge and experience. I strive to provide intuitive explanations of complex topics, while making sure students do not neglect the important details nor lose sight of the bigger picture.
My passion for the subjects I teach helps make my lessons engaging and keeps the student enthused. My experience as an examiner puts me in a good position to advise on exam skills.
I have strong academic credentials; I have authored peer-reviewed economics research and I have been invited to present my research by universities across Economics. I have provided econometrics consultancy to UK government departments.

Joe's last review in Economics from Rossemberg: Go through test paper Amazing as always!!! Thank you!
I worked as a TA at the University of California and worked at different universities in Turkey (Bilgi, 29 Mayis, Galatarasaray universities). Hence I have experience in teaching. While teaching, I give examples from daily life and make students think about these which makes learning process more participating.
Orcan's last completed
Economics job with Juliette:
Occasional - I have to take International Economics next semester and I'm looking for a tutor to help through the duration of the course. See the course description below:
The course aims to familiarise students with the principles of international economics. The theories of international trade and international monetary economics will be considered. These concepts are essential for understanding and evaluating international economic situations and problems. In particular, the course considers international specialisation, the development of world trade, commercial policy, balance of payments, foreign exchange rates and payment mechanisms as well as current developments within the international economic framework.
Orcan's last review in Economics from Djan: My last lesson with Orcan before my exams. He has helped me with many subjects including Banking, Macroeconomics and Econometrics. A great patient tutor and also a very nice guy!
