Experienced global professional teaching IGCSE and A-Level Economics with clear, exam-focused methods

About

I hold a BA in Liberal Arts (majoring in History) from the University of Florida and a Master's in Management from Boston University.
For many years, I worked globally in digital marketing at companies including UPS, Charles Schwab, Cofinoga, BetterTrades, and Antevenio—in cities like Madrid, New York City, San Francisco, and Buenos Aires.
I later transitioned into teaching, becoming a university lecturer at Luoyang Institute of Science and Technology in Henan Province, China, and at the Mediterranean School of Business in Tunis. Since 2021, I've been teaching IGCSE and A-Level Economics at an international school in Tunis.

English Proficient C2

Teaching experience

I've lectured in negotiation and digital marketing at Luoyang Institute of Science and Technology in China and the Mediterranean School of Business in Tunis.
Since 2021, I've taught IGCSE and A-Level Economics at CIS Tunis. I have also prepared students for the IELTS exam in China and Tunis.
Due to family obligations, I've returned home this year and am fully dedicated to providing targeted support lessons in Economics.

Teaching methods

I'm fiercely exam-oriented, aligning every lesson to how concepts are tested in IGCSE and A-Level papers. I work through past papers multiple times, breaking down model answers to show exactly what earns full marks.
To make theory stick, I weave in real-life examples and graphs—drawing from my global business career at places like UPS and Charles Schwab. Students love how these stories turn abstract ideas into relatable 'aha' moments.
Classes are high-energy: fast-paced, fun, and interactive. No dragging—we keep the vibe lively, with quick debates, instant feedback, and the occasional econ meme to seal the deal.
