Information about George

I have been an Economics and Business teacher for over 30 years. During that time I have taught many students with many gaining the top grade. I have both delivered full courses and undertaken extra tutoring in all the examination boards on a number of online platforms. As a senior examiner with a UK examination board for the last 10 years, I know what is needed for you to gain a good grade. I believe that a good rapport is crucial to the learning process as the key to success is a good partnership between student and tutor. I also run a registered charity in the UK that supports projects in Rwanda; my UK tour company provides volunteering opportunities in those projects for people of all ages. This experience allows me to bring real-life examples to the learning process; I have a particular knowledge of development economics as well as a depth of knowledge in business practice. I look forward to working with you!

My son has had economics tutoring with George for the last several weeks, having had to miss school for most of the previous term. And, I can see the difference it has made in his confidence within a very short period. The lessons are well structured and covers the topics in a way that my son feels comfortable with. George is easy to interact with, knowledgeable and patient in addressing all queries. Setting up the tutoring was a breeze. George always responds promptly and is flexible in terms of availability. We plan to continue the sessions into next year.

Tutors Response :

Thank you for your kind words. Joseph is a good student with a willingness to want to understand and an ability to take advice.

I think the help George has given my daughter over the past year has been invaluable. She was having trouble understanding some of the explanations given by her school teacher and this was leading to frustration and I think she would have become disillusioned if we had let the situation run on. When I suggested a tutor she was initially reluctant until she found out that one or two of her friends at school were already receiving external tuition for other subjects. She and George seemed to develop a good working relationship and the problems above were resolved and she is now confident as she attempts her A-levels. I would recommend this tutor to other parents as he has been quite transformative for our daughter.

George is a well educated tutor who has helped my child understand economics by going through topics bit by bit in detail. I have always heard many positive things from her and she recommends George to anyone who is in need of extra help with economics.

Mr George, Is a really great economics tutor. My son`s grades have improved quantifiably, moreover his interest in economics has improved to the extent that my son has now genuinely developed an interest in the subject beyond having the mindset of needing to rote learn for exams.

George taught my son A-level economics for several months and we saw a huge improvement in his confidence and ability. George is a very experienced teacher and was always helpful and responsive, and flexible if ever there needed to be a change in lesson time.

My son found George`s style very engaging and he felt comfortable asking questions and for further explanations. We only had s couple of lessons though as I realised that my son needed a classroom structure.

Our daughter is in a safe pair of hands with George. She has gained confidence and I often hear her asking questions (not something that she finds easy to do in a school environment).

He seems to know the syllabus and the subject well and helped my son identify the parts of the syllabus that were preventing him from feeling confident about the subject. We only had a few lessons because my son soon felt he he knew what he needed to do.

My son loves George’s Business lessons and he says George’s lessons are very interesting and helpful, especially with the harder A level topics. He’s been a great help so far for my son!

George is a great teacher! My son (doing his A-levels in year 12) went from a D in Business Studies straight to A- after three months of having lessons with George. He enjoyed the lessons with George, and was even looking forward to them - an absolute novelty with my son. George is very patient, extremely competent, hundert percent reliable, friendly and demanding with a student at the same time, and we are so happy that we found him!
