About Kishen
- Qualified Economics teacher at a top-performing selective grammar school, teaching Economics across GCSE and A Level.
- Over 9 years of tutoring experience, across both group and 1-1 settings.
- Specialist in A Level Economics and GCSE Economics across all major exam boards (OCR, Edexcel, AQA). I have an in-depth knowledge of the specifications and how examiners reward different question types, from short-answer recall to extended evaluative essays.
- Track record of strong results: over 90% of students have exceeded their target grade under my guidance.
- Educated at the University of Warwick (undergraduate) and King's College London (postgraduate), giving a strong academic grounding in economic theory that allows me to both explain fundamentals clearly and stretch high-achieving students beyond the syllabus.
- Experienced in equipping students for success in the exam hall itself: building familiarity with question formats, timing, and command words so students walk in feeling confident and exam-ready.
-Extensive experience preparing students for admissions to the most prestigious universities, including Oxbridge. I can advise on personal statements and interviews for courses such as Economics and Management, Economics, PPE, MORSE, EFDS, Politics.
- Experienced at preparing students for the TARA (used in the admissions process at both Oxford University and UCL).
Tutoring Style
-Every lesson is tailored to the individual student. I identify strengths and gaps early on and adapt pace, content, and difficulty accordingly, rather than teaching to a generic plan.
- Real-world, relatable examples bring economics to life, drawing on current news, everyday markets, and familiar local contexts so concepts feel tangible rather than abstract.
- A relaxed, encouraging atmosphere is central to how I teach, so students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes, which builds genuine motivation and enjoyment.
- Structured analytical frameworks help students move beyond memorised answers to real understanding, so they can construct strong, logical arguments independently.
- Regular questioning and past-paper practice reveal exactly which areas need further focus, rather than revisiting everything equally.
- Exam success stays firmly in view throughout, with every topic linked back to how it's assessed, what examiners look for, and how to structure high-scoring answers.
- Building genuine confidence is as important as content knowledge, so students walk into exams feeling calm, prepared, and capable of performing at their best.
- High expectations paired with recognition of progress help students see tangible improvement, keeping motivation high over time.
- My prior experience working in the civil service and in management consulting adds a practical, real-world dimension to my teaching, helping students see how economic theory applies to actual policy decisions and business strategy, not just exam mark schemes.
- I talk students through what the mark schemes actually mean and what the examiners are really looking for. I work through past papers alongside my students, so they know how to secure the highest marks.
- Lessons are designed to be interactive and thought-provoking, encouraging students to debate, question, and defend their reasoning rather than passively absorb information. I want my students to enjoy the process of learning with me.
