Interactive teaching style

Online teaching can also be interactive and engaging as what our Dean’s List top Economics star tutor Ms Foo has demonstrated via this short video. This helps to enhance her students’ learning and makes teaching more effective.

Ms Foo’s teaching style does not vary offline and online - this is how she usually engage her students so that lesson can be interesting and helpful in remembering the key concepts to apply when answering questions.

It is important to master the techniques of question analysis, structuring answers and develop accuracy in points generation. Ms Foo provides a step-by-step approach to guiding her students which helps them eventually become independent in generating the points with much accuracy and speed.

Would you like to give our online lessons a try first before we switch back to physical lessons offline only when the island-wide suspension of centre-based tuition is lifted?

Online Tuition Works Just as Well

EconsLab conducted our first online Economics group tuition today following the new ruling where all centre-based tuition is suspended island-wide due to Covid-19.

From our students’ response during the session, our online lessons are equally effective as our usual tuition held physically in terms of content delivery and mastery. With each online session capped at maximum of 8 students, it allows for ample opportunity for students to learn effectively and post any questions when in doubt.

Do try out our online tuition. Hope to see you online soon! Contact us at 9723 5149 to find out more.

Hi Ms Foo! Thank you for helping me improve in my Economics since JC1. Your lessons have made me actually like Economics and want to study it in the future! Though sometimes lessons may get tiring, your “shocked” reactions to weird answers like negative externalities on animals really keeps the class alive and something I look forward to! After about 1.5 years in your class, I have started to see how Economics is applicable in the world making me interested in the subject. I will get that A grade!!

Thanks Ms Foo for being so supportive and inspiring these few months! I only joined your tuition after Prelims but it is safe to say that I have benefited alot since attending your lessons. It has been such a ride! I’m so glad as now I understood many Economics concepts that I used to have no idea about. My confidence for Economics has also grown since joining your tuition. I can only thank you for that! Thanks for everything!

Economics Prelims Scripts Review

It’s the time of the year that our Dean’s List Super Star Tutor Ms Foo review Prelims scripts for her students.

While most students are still waiting for their results as Prelims just ended not too long, some students who had their exams prior to September holidays got back their results. In particular, a U-grader student showed vast improvement with a 3-grade jump to D ! Well done to this student and also the rest who improved !

Would you like to have your Economics exam scripts reviewed? It is important to identify why it is wrong to bring in certain Economics concepts even if you have elaborated them well. This is because that concepts might not even be relevant to answering the question. And so, have you analyzed the questions correctly then? Why not? Or is it more like a case of not knowing how to elaborate your point even though it is relevant?

Let Ms Foo give you a complimentary review of your exam scripts to uncover the issues you have been facing. It is not useful to just read the answer key provided to you to know what should have been the correct answer. In addition, it is important to understand why it is wrong to use certain concepts, why it is incorrect to use certain points in your answers although theoretically correct and well elaborated.

You could very well be the next one to see a huge jump in your grades in the A Levels exams which is just a month away. Contact Ms Foo now for a crash session.

Hope to see you soon!

Quick Tip on Monopoly vs PC: Allocative and Productive Efficiency

This video goes through a step-by-step analysis of how the equilibrium output and price is determined under the Monopoly and Perfect Competition.

The performance of these two market structures are also explored in terms of their ability to achieve allocative efficiency and productive efficiency.

Note:

Allocative efficiency refers to an efficient allocation of resources where societal welfare is maximized. The condition for this to occur is where Price = Marginal Cost (P=MC).

Productive efficiency refers to the production of good using the least-cost combination of input. The condition for this to be fulfilled is at minimum Long Run Average Cost curve (min LRAC).

Do subscribe to our Youtube channel to get updates on our Quick Tips from time to time. Economics lessons are available online and offline.
