JC Economics & IB Economics at econsLAB
At EconsLab, we do our best to provide our students with the skills necessary to conquer school assessments and eventually the Promotional exam and GCE A Level and IB Economics exam.
Our Dean’s List star tutor Ms Foo reviews scripts for her students for her students’ March Block Test, Midyear exams and Prelims. Ms Foo’s constructive feedback to her students’ work helps identify their blind spots and areas needed for improvement. Our students’ excellent results and testimonials speaks for itself. You may know some of our accomplished achievers (view from Results page from our website www.EconsLab.com).
The key to doing well in Economics is first to master the content well. Next is learning the exam techniques of question analysis and points development to ensure answers meet the question requirement. Lastly, it is through structuring the answers to ensure arguments are presented coherently.
What do we provide to our students to help them achieve such good improvement in their grades?
✔ Detailed lecture delivered to students for concept reinforcement
✔ Class timed practice held from time to time to help assess students’ understanding of content and hone time management skill
✔ Skills mastery: answering techniques and question analysis taught to ensure correct application to question for relevance and to score well
✔ Concise notes to help students with revision
As much as Ms Foo has been branded as a turnaround specialist with excellent track record, joining our tuition earlier definitely helps to relieve students of unnecessary stress and secure a higher chance of achieving greater improvement in their grades.

“Great teacher and fun lessons” ~ Elliot Heng, YIJC
“Ms Foo is a super effective and engaging Economics tutor who is always really patient with her students. Despite attending the lessons online, the experience felt as though it was similar to that as it would be in-person, with how interactive Ms Foo is even with the online students, as she constantly invites us to answer questions and share our ideas with the rest of the class. I really appreciate the way she teaches students how to tackle all types of Economics questions, teaching us a systematic approach which is easy to apply across all the different Economics topics no matter how obscure the question may be along with this, each lesson felt very productive and meaningful with the way Ms Foo went through the content, bringing in real life examples to explain the theory to make it easier to digest, as well as going through numerous example questions per topic wherein students were always encouraged to participate, which gave me a much better understanding of how to go about attempting questions. Ms Foo also always been very willing to answer questions and provide individualized feedback outside of lessons, which allowed me to better understand my weakness and effectively use her advice to work on improving myself. The combination of all these things is what helped me improve my Economics grade quite significantly in just the span of J2 :) thank you Ms Foo!!” ~ Taniska Singh, RI
