Hello, I am Akshay Kumaar

I specialize in the areas of Intermediate Microeconomics, Mathematical Economics, Intermediate Macroeconomics, Statistics and Econometrics. I also have good experience in tutoring students for A level Economics Course. I have detailed lecture modules for the above mentioned papers which enhance the learning process of the students and problem sets which enable them to apply the theoretical concept to solve various economic and quantitative problems.

I have good communication and inter-personal skills which enable the students to comprehend and reap the benefits of my lectures.

My role as an Economics Tutor

I believe my role as an economics tutor is to provide my students with individual assistance and support with their problems, and equally importantly, to try and ignite their interest in studying Economics at higher levels. I try and engage my students to think like an Economist and come out with solutions to various economic problems. It is essential that students not only get good grades at Universities, but also understand all Economics concepts, learn to think mathematically and solve problems themselves.

Rather than just showing them how to solve problems, I encourage students to think out of the box, while only gently prodding them in the right direction. This tends to greatly enhance their knowledge and self-confidence, and many are surprised at how well they do.

Teaching methods @DSE

An early and enthusiastic adopter of online teaching methods, I pioneered their use during the global COVID-19 pandemic. I now teach more or less exclusively online, believing this to be the superior teaching solution in most cases. I prefer to use interactive whiteboards and live quizzes for my lessons with active participation from the students. I prefer one on one tutoring or a group of atmost 3 students in an online lesson. I also believe in the phrase that ‘Old is Gold’ and students are most welcome to meet me for face to face tutoring at my office.
