Lessons over the internet can be difficult to be gripping, however, my use of interactive methods like using games and creating stories to help remember theories/topics can solve that problem. While studying for my final A level exams myself, my teacher asked me to tutor a fellow classmate who was struggling at Economics. With just an hour each week in tutoring, I helped him go from an E in his January mock exam to a B in his final A level exam, imagine with a bit more time what I could do for you/your child. For example, in A level Economics there’s the theory of crowding out, which can be hard for students to grasp, yet I would take a concept like this and turn it into a story. Instead of the government taking up funds that could be used to finance private investment, I would say the government are buying all the apples in the local market, so now no one can make apple pie. Basic but memorable techniques like this worked wonders for myself, helping me achieve an A*, and would definitely help any other students who need a bit more support in their learning. I also have a sporting background, having grown up playing football, and so I feel I can be relatable to current students, especially as I am still only 18 myself.
