With a 2:1 degree in Economics from Reading (2009) I have been tutoring for over 5 years now. Having started with just one student I have gone on to teach over 30 students (from multiple websites) across the Reading, Marlow, Wokingham and Maidenhead areas.

Unlike other tutors I only specialise in the subject I am qualified in and so only offer Economics tuition, meaning I`m up to date with the latest areas and syllabus requirements. I have taught students across Edexcel, OCR & AQA and had very good success with my students as my feedback shows.

Students come to me with different needs that range from:
- Wanting to gain those extra few marks to reach a top grade
- Struggling with the basic concepts and needing intensive support
- Generally a good understanding but wanting to brush on a few areas
- Understanding the topics but struggling with exam technique
- Lacking confidence of facing exam re-sits

Whatever the goal I`ve never met someone who I haven`t been able to help improve.

Availability: Available on weekends and evenings

Willing to travel: 15 miles

Experience: I believe it is Important to get to know the student first and build a rapport.

Lessons are guided by the student and can cover which ever topics they need help on. The lessons are not like school where there is a fixed agenda, we can jump about and cover any topic and as exams get closer past papers are a valuable area to focus on. I am flexible on times and can always fit in a last minute lesson.

I try to avoid a teacher-student relationship but instead encourage students to think of me as a peer so they are comfortable asking whatever questions they have.

Experienced with a range of ages and abilities I have been tutoring Economics across AQA, OCR and Edexcel exam boards for over two years.

All of my students have gone on to exceed their predicated grades.
