Online Economics Tutor Aftharb

I have over 11 years’ experience teaching Economics and Business Studies across GCSE, A-Level, undergraduate, and postgraduate levels. Since 2014, I’ve taught over 6,000 hours and maintained a 100% pass rate, helping 100+ students gain confidence, exceed predictions, and achieve top grades.

My lessons are discussion-based and interactive, creating a safe space where students are encouraged to question, challenge, and explore ideas freely. I place strong emphasis on justification, reasoning, and the constant “how” and “why”, helping students develop analytical depth and logical thought — skills essential for success in both exams and beyond.

We always follow the exam board specification as our master checklist, but never get lost in textbooks. This allows students to understand theories in context, explore real-world applications, and use that understanding flexibly in any exam scenario. From the very first session, we integrate past paper questions, covering both technique and timed practice to build precision and confidence.

Lesson frequency and focus are always tailored to each student’s needs to ensure they gain the most value from every session. Alongside teaching content, I provide revision strategies, progress tracking, and consistent feedback to keep students on top of their syllabus.

I also make myself available beyond lesson hours, encouraging students to reach out with questions or clarifications while revising for in-class or mock exams.

It’s this blend of structure, curiosity, and support that consistently brings out the best in my students.

I specialise in Economics and Business Studies, teaching across all major UK and international exam boards including Edexcel, AQA, OCR, Cambridge International (CIE), and International Baccalaureate (IB). I support students from GCSE, A-Level, IB, and university levels, tailoring lessons to each specification’s requirements and assessment objectives.

Economics

- Microeconomics: Demand and supply analysis, elasticity, market equilibrium, market failure and externalities, government intervention, labour markets, business objectives, and market structures (perfect competition, monopoly, oligopoly, monopolistic competition).
- Macroeconomics: Aggregate demand and supply, economic growth, inflation, unemployment, fiscal and monetary policy, international trade and balance of payments, exchange rates, development economics, and globalisation.
- Focus areas include essay writing, data interpretation, quantitative skills, evaluation, and exam technique, in line with examiner expectations.

Business Studies

- Core topics: Business objectives and strategy, leadership and management, marketing, operations, finance and investment appraisal, human resource management, innovation, external influences, and global business.
- Emphasis on application to case studies, evaluation, and analytical reasoning to maximise marks in longer-response questions.

At university and postgraduate level, I provide coursework and dissertation guidance, including research planning, literature reviews, structuring, methodology design, and overall argument development. I also support students with applied research projects and academic writing, ensuring clarity, coherence, and strong analytical depth.

We regularly practice past paper questions and essay structuring during lessons to strengthen understanding and technique.
(The list above is not exhaustive — all topics within each exam board’s specification are fully covered.)

My approach combines clear conceptual understanding with real-world insight from my professional experience in finance and entrepreneurship, helping students bridge theory and practice effectively.
