about me
Hi, I’m Evelin! I’m an economics tutor with a BA from Durham University and a PGCE (QTS) from the University of Worcester. I’ve been tutoring since 2016. What started as a way to fund my own studies quickly turned into something I genuinely love. Since then I’ve taught economics to students across the UK, Malaysia, and Hungary, most recently at the British International School of Budapest. What I love most about economics is how it builds critical thinking and helps us make sense of the world around us, and that’s exactly what I try to pass on to my students, building their passion for the subject alongside their confidence, so economics can become one of their strongest subjects.
