Advert description
I am an Economics teacher with nine years experience teaching Economics and Business at leading independent schools including Rugby School, Winchester College and Charterhouse School. I have been Head of Department since 2021. Every department I have run has achieved exceptional results year-on-year with A*/A results that have always exceeded the national average and my own school's average. With an MSc in Behavioural & Economic Science (Distinction) from Warwick, an MA in Economics (First Class Honours) from Aberdeen, and experience as an examiner for both AQA and Edexcel, I bring deep subject expertise and insider knowledge of how mark schemes are used to evaluate work and what examiners are looking for in top-grade responses.
Over the years, I have developed extensive experience supporting UCAS applications for Economics and related degrees, as well as preparing pupils for admissions tests including the TSA, and more recently, TARA. In schools I have served, I have been responsible for preparing Oxbridge Economics applicants. I believe in tailoring a bespoke programme for each pupil, reflecting their interests and needs. This will involve discussing chosen readings, giving feedback on their personal statement, conducting mock interviews, and preparing for admissions tests. With this approach, I have helped pupils secure offers from Cambridge, Oxford, Harvard, Chicago, Stanford and Yale.
