Registration OPEN for JC Economics & IB Economics 2025!

At EconsLab, we do our best to provide our students with the skills necessary to conquer their school assessments and eventually the Promotional exam, GCE A Level and IB Economics exam for JC Economics & IB Economics.

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

Take a look at what some of our graduates from our 2023 cohort said about tuition at EconsLab:

“Ms Foo was vital in my leap from an S for my mid-year exams to an A for the A Levels. She placed a strong emphasis on using the right keywords and structure which helped me elevate the quality of my essays. She was always open to answering our questions and took time to write well-crafted comments after reviewing our school exam paper responses. This helped me immensely in patching up the gaps in my knowledge. Overall, as someone who didn’t want to spend big on tuition, this was absolutely worth every dollar.” ~ Muhammad Faizan, RI

“Ms Foo is a kind and committed teacher who takes great care in ensuring the success of her students! Personally I have improved from S in MYCT to B in A Levels which would not have been possible without her help. Thank you so much Ms Foo! :)” ~ Myrna Keerthi, ASRJC

“Ms Foo is an incredibly kind and caring teacher that supported me throughout my Economics journey!” ~ Athul, YIJC

“Ms Foo is an incredibly patient and encouraging teacher. She would always encourage students to clarify doubts, and is more than willing to explain concepts in greater depth when students need it. As someone who retook their A Levels as a private candidate, this not only improved my understanding of Economics concepts but also helped me develop greater confidence for Economics, ultimately inspiring me to persevere and commit more time into the subject. Ultimately I enjoyed her lessons and I would not have been able to improve by 2 grades from my previous attempt without her constant guidance.” ~ Edmund Lauw, Private Candidate

“Economics Teacher, Ms Foo, has a solid foundation in TEACHING Economics and helping students understand it to a point where 50mins essays become no problem to write. Her encouraging, yet strict when needed approach, is bound to guarantee an improvement in your Economics grade!” ~ Samuel Neo, DHS

“Ms Foo helped me improve from getting a U grade in J1 to a B grade in A Levels! Her lessons are always very informative and in-depth, and the skills and strategies she has shared with the class are very useful and improved the way I answer Economics questions I face in school! I would highly recommend EconsLab to any juniors or friends who ask me for tuition recommendations. :)” ~ Joia Lim, EJC

“Ms Foo’s lessons are very much enjoyable. She has effective teaching methods that helped me learn how to break down questions and answer questions with economic analysis.” ~ Guru, Private Candidate

“Ms Foo is a dedicated and caring teacher! She goes above and beyond to ensure concise and clear understanding of her teaching as well. Not only does she ensure that her lecture content is clear and easy to understand, she also ensures that hands on tutorial is easy to follow and teaches us how to apply certain concepts and to be able to write concisely. Thank you for bringing up my grade from a D to an A especially during my school examinations Ms Foo! Appreciate the guidance and constant help especially with school work or answering any other questions that I have.” ~ Natalie Quah, YIJC

“I enjoyed Ms Foo’s lessons very much. Her teaching methods helped me a lot. Her explanations of the different concepts were easy to understand. I love that when she guides us through questions, she manages to break down the question requirements and makes sure that we answer the requirements. This gave me the confidence to answer questions. Furthermore, Ms Foo is always passionate to teach the class and never fails to give a cheerful energy every lesson. Overall, my experience was definitely fruitful. ~ Adriana, YIJC

“I managed to jump four grades in a mere three months! Never expected to pass Econs, yet alone secure good grades for A Levels. Definitely couldn’t have done it without Ms Foo’s guidance which I am so grateful for. Thank you so much!” ~ Raeanne Tan, RI

“Ms Foo helped me to make a tremendous improvement in my Economics grade at the A Levels :) Her dedication to each student to know their strengths and weaknesses and working on areas of improvement helped me greatly!” ~ Claire Tan, CJC

IB Economics Exam Results 2024

Heartiest congratulations to our IB students who took the HL/SL Economics exam in 2023!

Our students achieved excellent results - with 91% of our students achieving the perfect grade 7 and 6! Out of which 40% of the students scored perfect 7 while 60% scored 6.

Aside from our Dean’s List star tutor Ms Foo’s guidance, our students put in the effort to study and revise hence achieving the excellent result. We are very happy that our students’ effort paid off.

Here’s what some of our students say about our tuition:

“Ms Foo helped bring my grade up from a 5 to 7! What I love is not just that she cares a lot about each student, making sure everyone understands the concepts being taught and encouraging students to clarify their doubts, but also the way she teaches. She teaches us the ways to think about answering essay questions rather than just giving us the content answers, making the knowledge she teaches us in class applicable to almost any question. Thank you Ms Foo!” ~ Lucas Woon, SOTA

“Ms Foo has helped me so much during my IB journey as her lessons are engaging and helped me better understand Econs alongside its real world applications. Thanks to her patience and good explanations I managed to clarify any doubts I had about the content both in lesson and even outside lessons during my own revision time. I was able to secure good scores for both prelims and my IB exams. Thanks again Ms Foo!” ~ Ng Sue Ann, ACS International

“I have always struggled with writing more than the understanding of the concept itself. Ms Foo taught me how to write concisely and explain the theory logically. Also, she always encourages us to think on our own rather than forcing us to memorize stuff so that we can understand the concept by heart. I would recommend EconsLab for those who are seeking to make the difference that takes to boost the grade to 6 or 7.” ~ Kwak Joon Seong, ACS International

What do we provide to our students to help them achieve the perfect 7?

“Ms Foo is a wonderful Economics teacher who constantly goes the extra mile to help us understand our content and concepts! She is always so open to us asking her questions and she consistently guides us throughout our journey from J1 all the way to the A Levels. I couldnt ask for a better Economics teacher - thank you for everything Ms Foo!” ~ Khew Tung Chuan, RI

“Very effective teaching that allowed me to bridge the content of Economics and the writing techniques to score as many marks as possible in an exam.” ~ EJ, YIJC

“Ms Foo is a patient and accommodating teacher that helped me greatly in my preparation for A Levels! My grades gradually improved from a S to an A with aid from her lessons. :) Her meticulous and experienced approach to teaching helped me to figure out key concepts that I had struggled with previously, and to approach questions in a more strategic manner. Thank you Ms Foo!” ~ Claire Chua, NYJC

“As someone who had to learn Economics from scratch, Ms Foo has played an integral role in my success. Her lessons are beyond engaging and I will leave each lesson with my doubts cleared.

If you want a great Economics tutor look no further!” ~ Cedric Koh, NYJC

“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

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.

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. Students who achieved at least 4-grades improvement (e.g. from S to B), 67% of them attended our tuition for at least 6 months whereas the remaining 23% attended tuition between 3 to 6 months.

Take a look at what some of our graduates from our 2021 cohort said about tuition at EconsLab:

“Ms Foo is an engaging teacher who is able to effectively teach us Economics concepts as well as how to attempt questions. Her teaching has made me more confident in answering questions in my examinations and has also helped m to improve my results. She also spends time reviewing each of our examination scripts in detail so that we can better understand what went wrong. Thanks Ms Foo for helping me achieve my A!” ~ Jostedal Lau, RI (2021)

“Ms Foo is very patient and nice when it comes to teaching. She’ll slow down and take time to explain all concepts in details. The best part is she ensures we grasp the technique of answering essays.” ~ Abriale Goh, VJC (2021)

“Ms Foo conducts in depth lessons to help students grasp the technique of answering essay questions accurately. Although I only attended her lessons for a few months, she has helped me improve from a S to B!” ~ Zhang Yinuo, RVHS (2021)

“Ms Foo is an amazing teacher. Apart from knowing the syllabus inside out, she also does her best to motivate every student who is under her care. Through promoting healthy competition and constant encouragement, Ms Foo ensures that her student not only have the tools but the drive to succeed at Economics.” ~ Lim En Shian, HCI (2021)

“Ms Foo is a really caring teacher that managed to pull up my grades from a D to an A in A Levels! Thank you for all your help!” ~ Jolena Lim, EJC (2021)

“Ms Foo is a caring teacher and it’s amazing how she is able to turn around my U grade in common test to an A in A Levels! She answers my WhatsApp questions even during her off hours and clarifies my doubts with detailed explanations. Highly recommend to other students struggling to grasp Economics concepts as Ms Foo really knows what she is doing!” ~ Harry Yee, NJC (2021)

“Ms Foo has been a great help in my journey for the A Levels. She is good at explaining concepts thoroughly and consistently reiterates ideas so that we that we can learn them by heart. I managed to score an A for A Levels in the end and I could not have done it without her.” ~ Damien Lim, RI (2021)

“Ms Foo knows the ins and outs of teaching Economics. She has such a deep understanding of the subject and is able to clarify any sort of doubts. She is extremely passionate about teaching and her classes are always so fulfilling. She explains everything in detail and is always willing to explain a concept repeatedly until you understand fully. She has an abundance of resources that students can use to improve. The practices she gives in class are complete and tackles the critical concepts and skills needed to excel. I would definitely recommend Ms Foo to anyone struggling in Economics.” ~ Marcus Tan, ACJC (2021)

“I joined Ms Foo just 3 months before A Levels and I really thank her for being such a insightful and patient teacher to me! She was very responsive and comprehensive in answering all my questions and taught us many useful CSQ and essay tips that helped me improve greatly. She definitely knows how to make Economics engaging and fun.” ~ Ruth The, CJC (2021)

“Having joined Ms Foo just before prelims, she was my last hope to get my scores up and to iron out my misconceptions. Really appreciate Ms Foo’s very interactive teaching methods and how she wouldn’t leave anyone in class behind.” ~ Marilyn Goh, ASRJC (2021)

“I joined EconsLab only in the second year of JC after struggling with it in school, where I found it difficult to apply what I have learnt into answering exam questions. What stands out from Ms Foo’s lessons would be how in-depth she goes into analysing different practice questions, allowing us to much better understand questions requirements and Economics concepts, whereas tutorials in school tend to be much more fast-paced and less in depth. Ms Foo would also constantly encourage us to participate in class discussions where we would take turns to respond to different practice questions, honing our ability to think quickly during the exam. And Ms Foo would follow up by patiently guiding us to improve our answers as well as our understanding of the subject. Thank you so much Ms Foo for increasing my interest in Economics and helping me clinch an A in the A Levels!” ~ Jordan Tan, RI (2021)

Excellent Results for Prelims in JC Economics

It has been a while since the Prelims exam and our students are finally taking their A Level exams this upcoming week. It’s been a long preparation for our students. How well prepared are they for Economics exam?

We would like to share some Prelims results of some of our achievers where they demonstrated outstanding improvement to an A grade for Economics while some went on to achieved B or C grade. Do note that 90% of these students were either doing badly in the subject with either U, S or E grade but went on to overcome the challenges to achieve the results today. Well done to our students!

Some of our students have been failing the subject but also managed to pass for the very first time in Prelims. Well done in catching up and not be held back by their past performances!

Our Dean’s List star tutor Ms Foo has been reviewing students’ exam scripts for her students since end September on top of her busy teaching schedule where she teaches daily. As much as Ms Foo is overwhelmed by the volume of scripts she needs to review, that doesn’t stop Ms Foo from doing what has been regarded as her signature over the 16 years she has been teaching - putting down her comments against her students’ answers so that students know what went wrong with their answers: why can’t they use certain concepts for some questions, what went wrong with their expression when writing out their answers, what led to the wrong question analysis and hence off focused answers etc.

Ms Foo spends time giving comments to her students as she believes that the way to improve in the subject is by identifying what went wrong through their own mistakes. Afterall, each student is unique in terms of the mistakes they make and so need to pay more attention to particular areas of concern. And true enough, students who learnt from their mistakes after reviewing Ms Foo’s comments, applying the correct techniques and content taught during lessons, do see improvement in their grades. Our students’ results speaks much for itself.

From our students’ Prelims results, it is very clear that the past do not equate the future. Doing badly in the past does not mean that they will continue to do badly in the subject. Their Prelims results is indeed a much needed boost to their confidence before the long awaited A Level exams which they have been preparing for. We are confident that our students will stay consistent and do well for Economics in A Level exams.

Wishing our JC2 students the very best of luck for their A Levels exams! Ms Foo will continue to see her students to help prepare for the Economics exams. Yes, Ms Foo stays with her students to the very end.

Excellent Improvement: 3-Grades Jump With One Lesson

At EconsLab, we do our best to provide students with the skills necessary to conquer school assessments and eventually the Promotional exam and GCE A Level Economics exam.

We would like to share one of our students’ excellent improvement in Economics which we hope can motivate other students to believe that anything is possible. Afterall, the past do not equate the present.

This particular student attended our group tuition class, having just one lesson with our Dean’s list star tutor Ms Foo just prior to his school’s Common Test in less than a week. Due to time constraint, Ms Foo revised the key concepts for the main chapters tested along with some question practice to demonstrate how concepts are applied. Ms Foo also shared some tips on answering technique, improvising questions along the way to show how different keywords in questions require different answers although revolving the same concepts.

Ms Foo did the best she could within a short span of one lesson (1.5 hours for H1 Economics). The student is also very attentive, focused, asked questions and participated in question practice which enabled Ms Foo to assess his understanding of the concepts and application taught earlier.

Eventually, the result is fantastic - with the student scoring 10/20 which is a 3-grade jump from U to D!! It is important to note here that this student has been failing all tests prior to seeking help. With this student’s hard work, ability to absorb what was taught and applied accordingly in one lesson under Ms Foo’s guidance, what was impossible became possible. Ms Foo is very happy for her student’s vast improvement when he shared his results. Ms Foo’s advice to her student is to stay consistent and look forward to greater improvement in the next exam.

In another student’s case also taking H1 Economics, our student achieved a 5-grade jump from U to B. This student was consistently failing before seeking help from Ms Foo. Indeed, another inspiring story to encourage students that anything is possible.

Our JC Economics H1 and H2 classes are separated so that students can learn effectively what is required - afterall, H1 and H2 Economics have different syllabus and exam format. We do not group our students together for H1 and H2 Economics.

As much as Ms Foo applies the same teaching to all students, results may vary from student to student. Afterall, every student is unique in their own way. Ms Foo overcomes this issue by getting students to do timed practices during lessons to identify each student’s weaknesses and to eventually overcome them.

Looking to sign up for our H1 classes? There are still some slots available for JC1 and JC2 students. For JC1 students who are looking for H1 Economics tuition but cannot find a suitable class timing, please look out for 2022 registration for JC2 H1 Economics tuition. You may also drop Ms Foo a whatsapp/text message at 9723 5149 for enquires.

Besides JC H1 Economics, Ms Foo teaches JC H2 Economics as well as IB Economics (SL & HL). Classes are conducted daily by Ms Foo from Monday to Sunday.

Hope to see you soon.

Excellent results for MYE 2021

Despite the pandemic which caused centre-based tuition classes to cease from 18 May to 13 Jun 2021, lessons at EconsLab was not at all disrupted. Learning went online during this critical period where we continue to prepare our students for their Economics Midyear Exams.

We are happy that our students are not at all affected by the pandemic and went on to achieve fantastic results in Economics - ranging from 2 to 5-grade improvement in this MYE! Good effort put in by our students and we look forward to see even greater improvement in their results in the upcoming Prelims and Promotional exams.

Learning face-to-face and online makes no difference to our teaching - all classes are taught by our Dean’s List star tutor Ms Foo. Ms Foo is a full time tutor and armed with more than 16 years of teaching experience. Ms Foo has excellent track record in helping her students see good turnaround in their grades. Ms Foo is friendly and approachable so her students do not feel intimidated to ask her questions.

What is our track record? The release of 2021 GCE A Levels results showed that our students did well be it opting for face-to-face or online weekly tuition:

👍 Achievers with 5-6 grades improvement from U to As and Bs: 73%

👍 Achievers with 4 grades improvement from U to Cs: 27%

👍 Achievers with at least 3 grades improvement: 100%

Specifically, students who scored As, Bs and Cs are 41%, 32% and 23% respectively. Around 90% of our cohort scored either U or S grade prior to Economics tuition at EconsLab. You may know some of our achievers (refer to “Results” page).

Ms Foo helps her students review their tests and MYE scripts to help them identify area of weakness so that students understand what went wrong with their answers. It is okay to make mistakes but important not to repeat them in the next exams. Reviewing students’ scripts has always been a signature at EconsLab where Ms Foo patiently and meticulously uncover students’ weaknesses - afterall, not all student is the same and so weaknesses differ.

JC Economics Crash Course - 2021 June Holidays

EconsLab is a premier provider of JC Economics to students taking the GCE ‘A’ Level exams.

Our principal tutor Ms Foo is highly experienced and has been teaching Economics for over 15 years. She has been placed in the Dean’s List for Masters in Economics. Ms Foo has an excellent track record in her teaching which has won her many praises from her students past and present. Learning Economics under Ms Foo is fun and enjoyable. Ms Foo encourages her students to ask questions when in doubt. Afterall, there is no such thing as stupid or silly questions - students learn from the questions they ask.

Midyear exams is coming up soon. Do you need a quick yet effective review of key Micro & Macro concepts during the June school holidays to help you better prepare for the midyear exams? At EconsLab, we have specially put together a crash course offered on a topical basis where students get to to select the topics they would like to cover which they find difficulty in understanding. We believe this makes help more targeted and relevant to each student which enhances the learning outcome and results.

Our topical revision programme is designed in such a way that it gives our students the content knowledge, mastery of exam skills and hence the much needed boost of confidence to set them in the right mode to excel in the upcoming exams.

✔ Content mastery through detailed teaching of key concepts

✔ Step-by-step guidance in question analysis, points generation and development

✔ Materials provided

What is our track record? The release of 2021 GCE A Levels results showed that our students did well be it opting for face-to-face or online weekly tuition:

👍 Achievers with 5-6 grades improvement from U to As and Bs: 73%

👍 Achievers with 4 grades improvement from U to Cs: 27%

👍 Achievers with at least 3 grades improvement: 100%

Specifically, students who scored As, Bs and Cs are 41%, 32% and 23% respectively. Around 90% of our cohort scored either U or S grade prior to Economics tuition at EconsLab. You may know some of our achievers (refer to “Results” page).

Do not worry about large class size and hence inability to follow the content covered. Our small class size allows for ample interaction between students and our Dean’s List Star Tutor Ms Foo. With a small class, students would not feel left out. It is also easy for students to ask questions at any point in time without feeling awkward. Students’ struggle in class will not go unnoticed due to the small class size.
