The Challenge of Mastering JC Economics

Economics is one of the most skill-based subjects in the A-Level curriculum. It trains students to think critically, analyse policies, and understand real-world trade-offs.

Yet many JC students find it challenging because they: 

  • Memorise definitions without understanding the underlying concepts
  • Struggle to apply theory to case-study questions
  • Write essays without clear economic structure or evaluation

At That Econs Tutor, we show students how to do more with less. By distilling the syllabus into key examinable themes, we help them see the big picture early, focus their revision, and enter exams with clarity and confidence.

How We Help Students Overcome These Econs Challenges

Our lessons transform memorisation into mastery through clarity, structure, and application.

Complex concepts → Simplified Frameworks

We break down abstract theories into clear, visual models that make sense.

Passive Learning → Active Engagement

Students discuss, analyse, and connect theory to real-world issues.

Unstructured Answers → Strategic Writing

Through guided practice and feedback, essays become logical, focused, and examiner-ready.

Our Signature Method — The Parachute Concept Approach

Every lesson at That Econ Tutor is guided by our proprietary Parachute Concept Approach.

Just like viewing the landscape before landing, this top-down method helps students see how every topic connects — from micro to macro — before diving into details.

Students learn to recognise question patterns, use proven frameworks, and write L3-standard answers confidently under time pressure.

How the Parachute Concept Works

Economics is one of the most skill-based subjects in the A-Level curriculum. It trains students to think critically, analyse policies, and understand real-world trade-offs.

Interactive Economics Lessons

Students discuss, practise diagrams, and analyse real-world events — transforming passive learning into active mastery.

Personalised Learning Plans

We identify weaknesses early and address them with structured drills, model essays, and detailed feedback.

Clarity, Structure & Results

This method sharpens analytical thinking and writing structure. Students often see notable grade improvements within weeks.

“I went from an E to an A in one term. Mr Koh’s feedback completely changed how I wrote essays.” – Clarissa, JC2
