Rohan S
Rohan has tutored me for economics a-level for almost the entirety of Yr13 up to my exams. he has helped me gain deeper understanding of topics and has insanely improved my confidence when approaching longer essay-based questions. Following my time with him my grades have improved significantly and I would highly recommend reaching out to him for students that are having trouble understanding what questions are asking and how to approach answering them.
