You already know a lot more about economics than you might imagine. Each day, you make economic decisions, such as choosing between two teachers at Apprentus. You also come to class with years of experience in Economic matters. If you are in the UK and are 14+ years old, you might have worked part-time before and therefore supplied your labour. Supply of labour is an important concept that you might have heard of or learnt about. Do not worry if it is new to you - you may study it if you take this class. But as you may have realized, it is something related to work, so if you have worked before, you know it already.

Given students' prior experiences, I teach through examples that draw on these experiences. These examples build bridges from the familiar to the unfamiliar. Through this approach to teaching, I became one of the sought-after Economics tutors in my previous schools, where I worked with students at Key Stages 4 and 5, fostering in them a love for Economics.

I bring a well-rounded understanding of AQA AS/A level and GCSE Economics Specifications and familiarity with the following textbooks:

1. Powell, James., Powell, Ray., & Horner, David. (2023). AQA A-Level Economics (5th ed.). Hodder Education Group (AQA Approved)

2. McEachern, W. A. . (2006). Economics: a contemporary introduction (7th ed.). Thomson/South-Western.

Though the course is designed to help learners studying AQA GCSE or A Level Economics, it is appropriate for learners studying other specifications such as ORC Economics and all lovers of the subjects.

Présentation
I am an MSc Behavioural Science student at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). As a natural teacher and a lifelong learner, I can grasp the bigger picture and the details, put it all together, and passionately present it to students. I am naturally interested in young people and spend much time on their education and development. I am patient, understanding, and inspiring, which endeared me to most of my students.

I have six years of experience teaching economics at GCSE/A level, translating complex economic concepts into everyday straightforward language and fostering in students a love for economics. Professional expertise in learning is displayed through engaging with scholarly articles, books and websites related to economics and psychology thus enhancing my knowledge base.

Not only do I model good behaviour to my students, but I also build a good rapport with them, inspire them to achieve their goals and aspirations and treat them with respect.

My teaching is learner-centred, and I develop myriads of learning activities, incorporate assessment into lessons and use differentiated learning to cater for individual differences. In my teaching, I present economic concepts through stories, scenarios and case studies and guide students to extract these concepts themselves. I believe that these activities encourage further exploration, intrinsic curiosity and lifelong learning.

Hello,

I offer one-to-one private tuition to university students and adults in Political Science, Essay/Dissertation-writing, Political Economy, Economics, and European Studies.

I have 15 years of experience in high-quality private tuition, and I am also a Lecturer in EU Politics at one of the world’s leading universities (University College London).

My main areas of specialization are European Union politics and political economy, but I also regularly teach all other areas of Political Science, including Public Policy, Comparative Politics, Introduction to Politics, Populism, Democratisation, and many more. In addition, I teach Economics at a beginner/intermediate level.

I can also help with dissertations and essays, at the undergraduate, Master or Ph.D. level. As I supervise and mark UCL students ' dissertations throughout the year, I am able to give you the marker's perspective and help you ensure that you obtain a top mark. In addition, I am experienced in helping adult learners who want to improve their skills in Political Science or basic Economics, for professional or personal reasons.

Teaching is an activity that I deeply enjoy, and for which I have great enthusiasm. I was recently nominated for the Award for Outstanding Teaching by the UCL Students' Union. The feedback which I received from students taught in the past was very positive. In particular, I was told that my teaching had inspired students, and had made complex subjects appear simple and interesting.

My approach to teaching is results-focused. I first discuss with the student what are his/her objectives (this may be achieving top marks on a final exam, being able to undertake exercises given as homework, or increasing their understanding of certain aspects of a subject). We then devise together a work plan, to ensure that the student meets those goals.

This approach has been very successful in the past, as it is not only important to understand a certain subject, but also to be prepared for the particular type of examination or assessment that the student will need to face.

I have a Ph.D. in Political Economy from Utrecht University, a master's in European Studies from the College of Europe in Bruges, and a degree in Economics from the London School of Economics (LSE).

I teach either in person in London (ideally at UCL), or via email exchanges for written advice. Unfortunately I do not offer online classes.
