Tuition Background

Tuition/Teaching Experience
I have been teaching Economics for 20 years with various education institutions. Some of my ex-students are doctors, lawyers, teachers and other professionals. They scored A by completed my well planned assignments and followed

comments on their work. Even my H1 students taking Economics as a second subject in their university after my tuition. I


believe understanding of concepts, memorising good explanations, writing the answers by students and correcting
mistakes.

My highest record was marking more than 30 essays personally for one student in 2015. I even provided support to my regualr students with whatsapp, emailed model answers and hourly website updates hours before their exams.
