About Charles
1. I was lucky enough to be mentored in teaching economics by the then chief examiner for the London exam board, now known as Edexcel, who showed how important it was to bring a seemingly abstract subject with lots of graphs into the real world. I enjoy tutoring because I can tailor help so good students who have perhaps been in a large group or there has been high staff turnover so they can achieve the grades they deserve.

Economics at A level is an applied subject and I bring the subject to life using relevant examples that are likely to be examined in the next exam cycle. All IB paper 1 15 mark questions start, "Using real world examples...." so I have developed a wide range of international examples to ensure that students can access the higher mark bands. For A level, I have written a bank of model answers covering topics from all of the exam boards. In addition, I teach reading templates so that students can select the information they need from the stimulus material provided by all exam boards. Many long economics answers focus on a controversial issue that requires high level evaluation, therefore I work with students so that they can assess an issue, apply their understanding, and write cogent chains of reasoning. Students evaluate issues in their everyday lives, what is different in an economics exam is they need a comprehensive knowledge of economic concepts and theories to be able to evaluate. Students often find evaluation difficult because they lack the required knowledge base which I rectify in lessons. I like to use active learning techniques to aid long term memory.
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by the students of Charles.
Perfect! Charles is the real deal. As a secondary teacher myself, I can see that he demonstrates the patience, knowledge, strategy of the best of us. In just 2 weeks, my daughter has made huge amounts of progress in her confidence and ability in Economics, from not being able to finish a paper to being happy to challenge herself through all 3 papers. So glad we have Charles' help. I know she is in the most capable hands.
- Angelle progressed well, but was badly let down by the Sixth Form College she attended who changed her exam entry at very late notice which changed the focus of what we needed to cover. Angelle showed considerable resilience in difficult circumstances.Charles's response :

Charles was an excellent tutor for me, whilst studying my A-levels. He allowed my to gain a deeper understanding and a new insight into Economics. He helped me increase my grades by 3 levels over his tutoring period with me.
He also was very friendly and was happy to listen to my queriers and give his advice.
I highly suggest using Charles as a tutor.Mr Charles was my economic tutor. He helped break down concepts for me and link it to the real world to further my understanding. He was also very helpful in providing previous exam papers to practice with and review me based on. He is very patient and a very good teacher.
Charles tutored both my children for A level Economics.
He was patient and explained topics in good detail. He helped them understand how the theories can be applied in real terms
He was reliable and supportive and helped them achieve their predicted grades.
I would be happy to recommend Charles as a tutorCharles is a very good tutor. He taught me economics. I needed help understanding various economic concepts and he explained them to me very clearly in a way that would I understand. His method of using an online whiteboard made understanding various economic graphs much easier.
Charles has a track record of good teaching results. He has excellent subject knowledge and is quick to build relationships with students helping them improve.
Charles has tutored me for 3 years in both Economics and Geography and I can honestly say had it not been for him I would have never passed my A levels and got the required grades to get into a very tough course. His approach to teaching was very much based on how I learnt, I felt that he understood me and how I approached learning and tailored the classes to not only keep me interested in the subject matter but also gave me the tools to be able to answer specific A level question to optimize my marks.
Charles is extremely knowledgeable and I would recommend him without hesitation. He was always on time, always prepared and kept me always looking forward to my next session.
Charles will remain a great friend forever and I am so extremely grateful our paths have crossed.I was really struggling with Economics during my A level. I was predicted a D, Mr Charles being a fantastic tutor in one year made a huge difference. I passed with a B and I am so grateful for all effort which Mr Charles put in to make Economics fun, engaging and easy to understand.
