Dear students,
My name is Raphael Ioannides and I am quite possibly the greatest Economics teacher at IGCSE and A-level you may find on the World Wide Web. I am not even exaggerating, I promise.
What? You don't believe me? How about you sign up for a lesson and decide for yourself?
On a serious note now, teaching Economics at IGCSE & A-level is my profession and I am here to share my knowledge with you.
Having taught at the American Academy of Nicosia & The Junior & Senior School; two of the finest private schools in Cyprus, I have the right experience to assist you with the fascinating subject of Economics.
Besides having experience in teaching in the real world; I am also fully capable of teaching online as I am currently tutoring students through the gift that we call the internet.
Expect a unique and efficient teaching style which you will enjoy and will certainly challenge you to improve yourself massively in the subject.
Besides teaching Economics I am also a musician as I play the guitar and I write songs aswell.
If you want to divert the lesson because you need a small break, I suggest you talk about books, movies, football and travel destinations :)
I look forward to teaching you
I began my teaching career as a freelancer delivering private lessons to students who needed assistance with the subject of Economics back in August 2020. This was the beginning of my journey as an Economics teacher and provided a platform which I could improve my knowledge and expertise massively. I still provide such lessons; both online and in person till this day.
In January 2021 I had the opportunity to work in one of the most historic educational institutions in Cyprus. I was employed as a maternity cover at "The American Academy of Nicosia" to teach IGCSE and A-level Economics until June 2021. From then onwards I also taught at another private secondary school from September 2021 till December 2021 again as a maternity cover. I had the opportunity to teach the subject at "The Junior & Senior School of Nicosia".
Having taught at two of the finest private secondary schools of Cyprus has provided me with the right experience to be able to deliver lessons of a high quality and the ability to get the best out of every single student.
The first thing I try to do as an educator is create a disciplined yet friendly atmosphere where students feel comfortable and actually begin to enjoy the lesson. I do my best to ensure that my students have a feeling of positivity towards the subject and adopt the belief of "practise makes perfect".
Combine that with Economic knowledge, excellent communication skills, a and a motivational approach you can get the best out of anyone.
When you have the right attitude and mentality as a teacher; this is transmitted onwards to the students and their academic performance is destined to improve as a result.
My expertise is in the EDEXCEL syllabus I would say but I am fully capable in assisting you with any qualification at this level.
very clear on what to work on, set aside some time to talk through previous exam questions with in depth feedback. syllabus work aswell.
After having completed my first exam yesterday, we began practising exam questions for the next exam in 3 weeks, making me feel more confident for it.
Today we did Supply Elasticity (PES)
Raphael gave me a great understanding on pieces of economics I was confused on and described clearly of updates I could apply to my answers.
Gained a thorough and strong understanding of the topics and revision we looked over today. Raphael gave easily understandable knowledge making the topic I was challenging way easier.
We went over a past paper I did, and went through the structure of different essay styles. We also re-capped some difficult topics and I am feeling very confident for my exam
It was really helpful with the structure of longer questions
review of 20 marker essay homework, gave tips on how to make it better. went through some of the syllabus.
Raphael has been nothing but great for the past month. My final exam is tomorrow and the only reason we had a lesson today is because I kept asking for one. Raphael originally would have rathered that we had no lesson today as he believes the day before the exam the student needs to prepare by themselves without help just like it would be in the real exam. This shows its not about the money to him and he actually just aims for a student to get the best grade they can even if it makes him less money.
great lesson as always. I find myself repeating myself in the reviews but Raphael really is that good. His methods are completely different to how my school teachers explain topics. What Raphael can teach me in a sentence is what what my economics teacher at school teaches me in a 50 min period.
