What attendees say
Attending the annual Grade Booster session hosted by tutor2u has been an absolute delight for both me and my A-level economics students. The experience has been nothing short of exceptional, providing an invaluable opportunity for students to bolster their understanding and preparation for their exams...
The atmosphere during the session was incredibly positive and conducive to learning. Students not only enjoyed themselves immensely but also felt motivated and inspired to excel in their studies. The interactive nature of the session fostered a sense of camaraderie among the students, creating an environment where they felt comfortable asking questions and collaborating with their peers.
Economics Teacher
We are bringing our A-level economics students every year and the workshops have become an essential part of getting ready for the exams. The students love coming and always give positive feedback. They were especially positive about the sessions on marginal gains and application.
Head of Economics
The A Level Economics Grade Booster has been a revelation for me. It addressed my confidence issues head-on and honed my exam technique flawlessly... This program isn't just about grades; it's about empowering students to excel. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking academic growth and confidence.
Economics Student
Amazing workshop. Engaging and interactive. Pacey to avoid student boredom. To the point with nice tips and simple, easy to follow exam technique. It's great to be able to expose our students to the calibre of other A-level students in a healthy way.
