Finding the Perfect Economics Tutor in Glasgow

Economics is an increasingly popular subject for students to study both at secondary school and at university as it can lead to a number of interesting and promising careers in finance, business, management, teaching, and accounting. Economics is technically the study of wealth, how it's generated, and how it's consumed, but in short, economics is money.

Let's see what the advantages of studying economics are, the challenges students face when they do, what they can learn about it at school, and how private tutoring can help.

The Advantages of Studying Economics

Economics is a popular subject because of how directly it leads to promising careers in business, finance, accounting, and management. They say "money makes the world go round" so learning about it is definitely a good idea.

You can study economics at school, but it's on a university degree course where you'll gain the necessary qualifications to break into these lucrative careers. Economics graduates often move into work as economists, financial risk analysts, data analysts, financial planners, accountants, financial consultants, economic researchers, actuaries, etc.

For more advanced lines of work, students can also continue their studies at a graduate level and get a Master's in Economics. Of course, before dedicating more time to your studies, you may want to check whether or not your dream career actually requires the master's degrees.

In addition to the obvious skills and knowledge you'll gain by studying economics, there are also transferrable skills that are useful in other types of work. Those who study economics will also learn about communication, problem-solving, time management, and mathematics.

Challenges in Studying Economics

If economics was that easy, everyone would be doing it. We mentioned that studying economics can help develop maths skills, but a lack of them will also greatly hold you back. Maths is such a big part of economics that most university degree courses have A Level maths down as a requirement. If you're not great at maths, economics mightn't be for you or you may need to focus on improving your numeracy skills.

It's also not one of the most exciting subjects as a lot of the teaching will cover concepts and learning about intangible things. For students who prefer learning by doing, the whole experience can be offputting, especially if they don't have a teacher or tutor who's willing to offer hands-on exercises and activities to fully engage their students.

Areas of Economics Studied at School

Students in Glasgow will have the opportunity to study Higher Economics before going onto a university course in economics. With that in mind, let's see exactly what they'll study.

The Higher Economics course is split into three main areas: Economics of the market, UK economic activity, and global economic activity. These areas of study have been chosen to help students learn about the topics, analyse economic data, understand how economics affects individuals, firms, and governments, and analyse the importance and impact of aid and trade.

Again, remember that a lot of university economics degree courses in the UK list Higher Maths or A Level as a requirement and not economics. Of course, there's certainly no harm in learning about economics at school, just make sure that you're also studying maths.

Private Tutoring in Economics

If you need help studying economics at school, college, university, or work, remember that a private tutor can help. Private tuition can help students learn in a way that will work for them. One of the main problems with teaching in schools and universities is that the teachers have too many students and not enough time or support to tailor every lesson to optimise each student's learning approach.

With a tutor, however, the student can supplement their studies with a learning approach that's adapted to them, their level, how they like to work, and their strengths and weaknesses. A tutor can help school students study for their Higher Economics exams or show them new ways to make their studying more effective.

Adults who've already finished school can study economics, finance, business, or management in order to get a promotion, change careers, or learn new skills that they can put on their CV. Your average lesson at school mightn't have been tailored to you, but your private tuition certainly will be.

Whether you're studying economics, business studies, English, maths, or science, private tutoring can help everyone from primary school pupils to graduate students by providing lessons that work for you.

Finding an Economics Tutor in Glasgow

If you're looking for private tutors in Glasgow (or anywhere in Scotland, for that matter!), you can search for lessons on Superprof! You're free to view each tutor's profile and compare their experience, education, and fees and read reviews left by the other students they've taught.

Generally speaking, tutors with a higher level or more experience will charge more than university students offering tuition alongside their studies. There are a lot of factors that affect the price of a tutor and you'll probably learn more about how this all works in your economics tutorials.

If you can't find any suitable or available tutors in or around Glasgow, you can always look for online tutors on the website. As long as you have a webcam and a decent internet connection, you can learn from tutors all over the world. Of course, if you need help with exams specific to Scotland, you might want to make sure that your tutor is familiar with the National 5, Higher, and Advanced Higher rather than the GCSE and A Level.

For those on a budget, there are also tutors who offer group tuition. While you won't be able to benefit from lessons that are completely adapted to you or your child, you will be able to share the cost of the tutor's time while still benefitting from their experience and expertise.

Don't forget that a lot of the tutors on Superprof offer their first hour of tuition for free and you can use each free lesson as an opportunity to try out different tutors, interview them, and work out whether or not they're right for you or your child.
