A-Level Economics
Revising A-Level Economics but still losing marks?
It's the most common thing parents tell us, and it's almost never about effort. Usually, it's one of these
Knows the theory, not the marks
They can explain the concept, but the answer doesn't score.
Evaluation that never decides
Lists of counter-points, but no justified judgement at the end.
Short chains of analysis
The point is right, but the steps in between are missing.
Diagrams that don't help
Wrong labels, wrong shifts, or a diagram the answer never mentions.
Ignoring the extract
Data questions answered from memory instead of the evidence given.
Running out of time
The 25-mark essay gets the last ten minutes it doesn't deserve.
More tutoring hours won't solve the problem if you're working on the wrong things. That's why we start by finding out exactly what's holding your child back.
How does A-Level Economics tutoring improve grades?
The tutor won't be sitting beside your child on exam day.
So our job isn't to make Economics feel easy while the tutor is there. It's to help your child reach the point where they can:
Building chains of analysis
Building chains of analysis
Linking cause and effect step by step, so every point is fully developed.
Evaluating with purpose
Evaluating with purpose
Weighing arguments by magnitude, time frame and likelihood, then reaching a judgement.
Using diagrams properly
Using diagrams properly
Accurate, labelled diagrams that are referred to and actually do work in the answer.
Applying the extract

Using the figures and details provided, not a pre-learned answer.

How does Edmento A-Level Economics tutoring work?
No random tutoring. No guessing. Just a clear plan.
1
Tell us where things stand
A free call about current performance, targets, school feedback and exam board. No sales script.
2
Meet a matched tutor
We match by subject, level, exam board, your child's needs and how they learn. Try a lesson before committing.
3
Work a focused plan
The tutor pinpoints where answers lose marks, from analysis to evaluation, then fixes the biggest gaps first, with updates for you.
Your child's current and target grade set the plan
The goal isn't simply to finish the A-Level Economics course.
It's to prepare your child for the grade they're capable of achieving.
Grades C–B
Working towards a C or B?
We strengthen application and analysis, and build the essay structure the mark scheme rewards.
Grades A–A*
Aiming for an A or A*?
We raise the challenge. Unfamiliar contexts. Sharper evaluation. Confident, justified judgements. Less hand-holding.
Ready to give your child a clearer route to their target A-Level Economics grade?
Tell Edmento where things stand and we'll take it from there. Free. No packages to buy. No pressure.
Why choose 1-to-1 A-Level Economics tuition?
Schools do a lot well, but a teacher has to mark essays for the whole class. A tutor only has to teach your child. An Economics tutor can read your child's answer as it's written, show exactly where the analysis stops or the evaluation drifts, and fix it on the spot.
Their pace, not the class's
More time on the topics that don't click, less on what's secure.
No audience
The questions they'd never ask in class get asked.
Built on their gaps
Not on what the rest of the class needs that week.
Feedback while they write
Not weeks later, when the essay is already forgotten.
Someone notices
Whether the practice essay got done, and whether it improved.
Their thinking, in view
The tutor sees exactly where an argument goes off track.
How much does an A-Level Economics tutor cost?
At Edmento, lessons start from £15 an hour. Across the UK, the cost of an A-Level Economics tutor depends on the tutor's experience, how much exam preparation is involved and what support comes with the lessons.
1-to-1 lessons cost more than group tuition, but every minute goes on your child's gaps. You won't be asked to buy a large block of lessons before you know the tutor is right: start with the free consultation and a trial.

FAQs about A-Level Economics tutoring
How much does an A-Level Economics tutor cost?
At Edmento, lessons start from £15 an hour. Across the UK, A-Level Economics tutoring costs vary with the tutor's experience, the level and how much exam preparation and support is included. We start with a free consultation and a trial lesson, with no large upfront package, so you can judge the value before committing.
+
Is A-Level Economics tutoring worth it?
It usually is when lessons target the specific reasons your child is losing marks. General revision rarely moves a grade on its own; a tutor who diagnoses gaps, sets focused practice and gives feedback on your child's own work can. The trial lesson lets you judge before committing.
+
When should my child start Economics tutoring?
Early in Year 12 is ideal, because the step up from GCSE catches many students out and gaps compound quickly. Starting in Year 13 still helps, particularly with exam technique, full past papers and the high-mark questions that decide top grades.
+
How often should my child have Economics tuition?
Once a week suits most A-Level students. Some move to twice a week before mocks or the summer exams, or while catching up on a difficult topic. We'll suggest a frequency based on your child's target grade and plans after school.
+
Can tutoring improve my child's Economics grade?
It can, though no honest tutor guarantees a result. Progress comes from fixing the specific gaps and technique problems that cost marks, practising regularly and getting feedback. We track progress and share updates, so you can see whether it's working.
+
How can my child improve evaluation in Economics?
By weighing arguments against criteria like magnitude, time frame and likelihood, then reaching a justified judgement. Listing counter-points isn't enough. A tutor practises this on real questions with feedback.
+
How should my child structure a long Economics essay?
Plan first: define key terms, build two or three developed chains of analysis supported by a diagram, apply them to the context, then evaluate and conclude with a clear judgement. At A-Level this matters most on 25-mark questions.
+
How important are diagrams in Economics?
Very. An accurate, labelled diagram that's referred to in the text strengthens analysis and often carries marks directly. Common errors include wrong labels, wrong shifts and diagrams never mentioned.
+
Why does my child know the theory but lose marks?
Usually because answers aren't applied to the extract, chains of analysis are too short, or evaluation doesn't reach a decision. These are technique problems that improve quickly with targeted feedback.
+
How can my child use the extract better in Economics?
By quoting or referencing specific figures and details, and explaining what they show. Data-response questions reward answers built around the evidence provided.
+
Do you support AQA, Edexcel and OCR A-Level Economics?
Yes. We ask about your child's exam board during the free assessment and match them with a tutor who knows that specification, its papers and its mark schemes. Not every tutor teaches every board, which is why we match rather than assign.
+
How does online Economics tuition work?
Lessons happen live, 1-to-1, over video. Your child's essays go into a shared document the tutor annotates live, and diagrams, sources or data are worked through together on screen. Your child needs a laptop or tablet and a quiet space; many families find it easier than travelling to lessons.
+
How do you choose an Economics tutor for my child?
We match on subject, level, exam board, your child's needs and their personality. After the free assessment we suggest a tutor, and your child has a trial lesson so you can both judge the fit before committing.
+
Will I know how my child's Economics lessons are going?
Yes. You can receive lesson feedback and progress updates, and your Student Success Manager is available whenever you have a question or concern.
+
What if the tutor isn't the right fit?
Tell your Student Success Manager and we'll find a better match. It happens occasionally, and it's easy to fix.
