I am passionate about supporting students to achieve their potential. I love teaching, but get frustrated with the conventional classroom learning style as this is not suited to all students. You cannot measure the ability of a fish by watching it climb a tree. No two students are the same and therefore teaching and learning needs to be tailored to support the needs of the individual student. Working with students on a one-to-one basis is highly rewarding. I relish seeing my student’s succeed and improve their grades, but also, it provides me with an opportunity to discuss the subject more widely beyond the constraints of the specification and instil a passion for the subject in my students.
Tutoring Experience
I have 12 years experience in private tutoring at both GCSE and A Level in Economics and Business. I am familiar with and an examiner in the Edexcel exam board and AQA.
I have been teaching Economics and Business at GCSE and A Level in a Grammar School since 2013. I introduced GCSE Economics and ran that department successfully, with students achieving outstanding GCSE results significantly above the national average. My students have been known to achieve 87% A*-A grades or 8-9 grades at GCSE. Prior to this, I was responsible for introducing Economics at A level at a comprehensive school in Basildon. Before I moved to the UK, I taught Economics and Business at an independent school in Ireland.
Tutoring Approach
My sessions focus on establishing a core foundation to build confidence and knowledge. Economics is a hard subject. It is like learning a new language and those initial few weeks can be daunting. Students often get lost in the new terminology introduced in the first couple of weeks and this can be a reason for some students not continuing with the subject. By securing knowledge through a variety of interactive teaching techniques, students gain the confidence to access the more difficult parts of the specification.
As part of your sessions, all resources and materials will be provided. Work will be set as appropriate for you to complete and I will mark it and provide feedback. We will look at core content, exam technique and practice questions. There are many different issues which are likely to impact a student’s exam performance, but notably application of the subject in a wider context, the skills of analysis and evaluation and decoding the exam questions. These areas will be developed within our sessions and my years of experience have enabled me to devise strategies to address such areas successfully.
I have a wide range of experience in teaching a variety of subjects including:
English
Economics
Business
History
Psychology
Music
1-2-1 mentoring
Accounting
Law
EPQ supervising
I have experience working with all ability levels and a wealth of training and experience working with students who present with additional needs, including, anxiety, ASD, ADHD, ODD etc.
Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions. I will be more than happy to help you, and if I cannot help you, I am sure I know someone who can!

I am an audio engineer and guitarist, with over four years of experience teaching. I believe the best approach to teaching is that the student should always leave the lesson having a good understanding of what was taught in the session.

Hi All!
I am Marty, I am the Owner/Director and one of the tutors at Double M Studios.
I decided to launch DMS due to the passion I have for music and to make it a platform to be able to offer opportunities to students and adult learners that they may not be able to get anywhere else.
Music has been part of my life for a very long time. I was lucky enough to have two of the most amazing guitar tutors that anybody could have asked for. One of which became a very big inspiration for what I am doing now.
(More about my extensive experience to be added very soon)
