About Leo
Hi there,
I’m a tutor with 8 years’ experience helping students reach top grades in A-level Economics. Every child has the potential to succeed in their studies and I’ve seen first-hand how students can grow to achieve grades they never thought were possible in the beginning.
Here are a few words on my approach and beliefs when it comes to tutoring:
The difference between a good tutor and a top one is the ability to instil confidence in a student that they can realistically achieve an A* grade, regardless of where they were when we started or the expectations set by their teachers. This confidence comes from seeing their academic competence grow each week as well as realising that nothing in the syllabus is beyond them. This confidence carries over into their other studies, stays with them as they progress to higher education and positively affects other areas of their life. A great tutor isn’t just a teacher, they should act as a mentor and motivator as well.
A few words on exam technique – the difference between an A and A* can be a few lines in each answer. My job is to help the student to understand the paper to the point that they know exactly what they need to do in the exam hall - where one would usually experience ‘Exam nerves,’ I want my students to experience combat-readiness, like an elite athlete would feel stepping onto the field. This comes from removing all uncertainty from the equation – the student knows exactly what they need to do, it’s now just a case of executing it.
As for the economic theory, when we cover the material my focus is on making sure the student truly understands the mechanics behind everything. This isn’t a memorisation exercise as that’s of little use in the exam – the student’s knowledge should be dynamic enough that they can link concepts together and tackle any question that’s presented to them, even if it’s something they haven’t seen before. Concepts can seem a lot simpler than their teachers made them out to be if they’re explained correctly. I’m doing my job right if the student leaves the session thinking “wow, that was way better than school.”
Get in touch and we'll hit the ground running!
Kind Regards,
Leo
