Rafael

I am a recent graduate from the Barcelona School of Economics (12th best research institute for Economics in the world), and am in the process of getting my master's thesis published by Universitat Pompeu Fabra.
I really enjoyed studying Economics, and received a first-class qualification from the University of Nottingham. I also received multiple scholarship offers from top universities (Bocconi International Award from Bocconi University in Milan, and TAship offer from the University of British Columbia in Vancouver).

I also achieved A's at A-level in Maths and Chemistry and am more than willing to help with those subjects too!

Tutoring Experience

I routinely held revision sessions for other university students to help them attain good grades in economics. I was also a Peer Mentor at Nottingham, helping first year students settle into life at university and aiding with the jump up in work load to university. At school, I would often end up teaching those around me the content that they did not understand with regards to Economics, and was endorsed by the teacher to do so.
I also am a GCSE mathematics tutor outside of First Tutors.
I have taught more economics students recently, one student this year went from a U to a B.

Tutoring Approach

I usually let the student(s) try to tell me what they know by having them try to teach me the content or answer questions I will have written out beforehand. This allows me to see exactly what they may be getting hung up over, and then I can use new explanations to allow them to understand the content.
I prefer knowing exactly the topics that want to be covered beforehand, so I can get some resources together to help.
