Cambridge-educated A-Level Economics Tutor

“Tom is an absolute lifesaver. He gave my daughter knowledge, confidence, exam technique and, I’d even suggest, a love of the subject that she’ll now be focussing on at uni. His sessions were tailored, well-organised, comprehensive and effective. We could not have been happier with the process from start to finish. My daughter found the sessions invaluable. This is how tutoring should be done – regular homework and, later, timed mock exam-style questions and papers set with answers thoroughly reviewed and detailed feedback provided. I have already recommended Tom to other parents (who were also delighted with their child’s progress) and would recommend him to anyone wanting their child to do better in Economics.” Angela, parent of an AQA Economics A-Level student.

“Tom is an excellent Economics tutor who tailors every lesson to each student’s individual needs. His expertise shows through in-depth, well-organised class notes and constructive feedback on practice questions and essays. Beyond the A-Level syllabus, he’s always eager to discuss wider economic concepts and current affairs, which really helped develop my interest in the subject.

“Over the two years of the A-Level Economics course, I saw significant improvement in my knowledge of content and essay writing technique. Ultimately, this led me to achieve an A* in Economics, scoring 91% overall. I would highly recommend Tom to anyone looking for a dedicated and engaging economics tutor.” Mary, Edexcel A Economics A-Level student.

“Tom tutored my daughter Olivia in Economics for the 5 months leading up to her A-levels. At the start of this period, she was regularly achieving a C grade in her formal and informal tests. Being new to economics, she was finding it difficult to know how to revise and how to approach homework and exam questions. 

“Tom’ lessons really helped her around specific topics and he helped her find a framework for answering questions. He always came with a fully prepared lesson plan and followed up on previously set questions. 

“I think it is important to note that for a 1 hour paid tutoring session, you really do get much more; fully pre-prepared sessions, marked homework’s with suggests, marked practice papers, review of questions completed in college. 

“Ultimately, Olivia achieved a grade A in her Economics A’level, an improvement of 2 grades from the grades she was achieving at the start of her sessions. I really do think Tom was instrumental in this improvement and we would definitely recommend him to future students.” Andrea, parent of an AQA Economics A-Level student.

“I first came across Mr Furber’s notes and found them very helpful in consolidating all the content. I approached him for lessons after struggling in my mocks; prior to this, I would get 12/25 in my 25 markers! Mr Furber has been so useful in teaching me exam technique, on how to craft perfect conclusions, and helping me understand difficult topics like the financial market. After 3 months of guiding me, I managed to get an A* in the actual A Level! I’m so grateful, thank you so much!” Kay’ien, AQA Economics A-Level student.

Parent’s perspective: “Tom tutored my son Aidan for his A-Level Economics studies for around 6 months leading up to his exams in May/June 2026. Aidan was finding Economics the hardest of his three A-Levels and achieving B/C graded work at college. Tom was recommended to me by a friend whose daughter had also been struggling with her Economics. The tutoring Tom provided was excellent – he had weekly sessions with Aidan across that period providing homework tasks he always marked and provided very clear feedback on areas for improvement ahead of next week’s session. As a parent it was very helpful to be copied into the emails so I could see the tasks Aidan was being asked to complete and the feedback from Tom so I could add my own thoughts and encouragement. Aidan was galvanised by the tutoring not only in terms of steady progression in his marks but in terms of his level of interest in Economics. Aidan seemed to genuinely look forward to the sessions and he ended up deciding to pursue Economics at University. Throughout the process the marks Aidan got for his homework steadily improved – not dramatically but you could see progress was being made. When it got close to the exams Tom marked various practice papers Aidan attempted and gave super helpful feedback – again the marks kept improving which was encouraging for Aidan. Aidan ended up just missing an A* in the real exam but he was delighted with such a solid A grade and it was his highest mark across all his subjects. He is now off to Nottingham University to study Economics. Thanks Tom – you have been a fantastic tutor for Aidan and have helped inspire his passion for the subject.” Phil, Aidan’s father.

Student’s perspective: “Tom is an excellent tutor with outstanding knowledge that improved my economics knowledge and passion massively over my second year of A-Levels. His effort outside of sessions such as in-depth marking of exam questions and practise papers as well as preparing for the next session gave me the best possible chance of success. Tom puts real emphasis on exam practise and real-world examples which were key to improvement. Additionally, Tom was incredibly helpful in guiding my university application by giving me ways to stand out and structure my application. I would strongly recommend Tom!” Aidan, Edexcel A Economics A-Level student.
