I'm currently a BSc Economics student at the University of Nottingham with a strong academic background, achieving A*A*AA at A-level, including an A* in Economics, and 10 A*-A at GCSE.
What sets me apart as a tutor is my ability to bridge the gap between understanding and application. Many students struggle not with the content itself, but with knowing how to structure answers, interpret exam questions, and apply knowledge effectively under timed conditions. My focus is on building a strong foundation in key concepts while developing the skills and confidence needed to excel in exams. Having recently been through this process myself, I offer a fresh, student-centred approach that prioritises clarity, efficiency, and exam success.

Over the past academic year, I have tutored four students in Economics at both A-level and GCSE, and I am currently working with four more. Every one of my students in the last exam season achieved top grades—A* at A-level and Grade 9 at GCSE. My experience has given me insight into the challenges students face and the best methods to help them succeed.
As a part of the one-on-one tutoring, I have experience explaining complex economic concepts in a clear and engaging way, ensuring students not only memorise content, but truly understand it. My approach is tailored to each student’s strengths and weaknesses, ensuring they develop both confidence and exam technique.
As a student who recently sat these exams myself, I understand the pressures of modern education and the strategies needed to succeed. I take a structured but adaptable approach, focusing on three key areas: deep conceptual understanding, exam technique, and confidence-building.
I break down complex topics into simple, understandable explanations, ensuring students can truly grasp the material. I also emphasise exam practice, helping students master essay structures, data interpretation, and time management to maximise their marks.
Because I have recently been through the same system, I know what works—and what doesn’t. My tutoring isn’t just about knowledge transfer; it’s about developing the right mindset, strategies, and problem-solving skills to help students achieve top grades.
Sessions are designed to be very relaxed, engaging and interactive, creating a supportive environment where students feel comfortable and can develop their understanding with confidence. Unlike a traditional classroom setting, my sessions provide a more personalised and focused learning experience, allowing students to ask questions freely, work at their own pace, and gain a deeper understanding in a supportive environment.
