Each one covers a topic or exam skill where students often lose marks, such as demand and supply diagrams or command words.

About me
Economics gets easier when it's explained clearly.
When students find Economics hard, the problem is often the order they learnt it in. Many memorise definitions before they understand the idea behind them. So the subject starts to feel like a long list of words.
In my lessons we do it the other way round. I explain the idea first in plain English, with one simple example. Once you understand it, we add the Economics terms. You draw the diagrams yourself, and you plan each answer before you write it.
We learn the Economics and practise exam answers in the same lessons. A student can know a topic well and still lose marks because of how they write the answer. For example, they leave out a diagram or forget to evaluate at the end.
