About Me

I’m a qualified teacher (QTS, PGCE with Distinction) and a full-time tutor specialising in A-level Economics and Business. I teach students in the UK and internationally, from those building confidence and subject foundations to high-achievers targeting A/A*.

My tutoring is structured, interactive, and exam-focused: clear explanations, real-world examples, strong diagram/chain-of-reasoning technique, and mark-scheme-led practice so students know exactly what examiners reward.

I changed career into teaching after 25 years in the corporate world because I wanted to help young people reach their full potential - academically now, and in the opportunities they can access later.

I began teaching Economics and Business in London schools, where I focused on helping students close gaps in attainment through high expectations, consistent routines, and practical, confidence-building teaching. That experience now shapes everything I do as a tutor: calm clarity, ambitious targets, and a step-by-step approach that turns understanding into exam performance.

Outside sessions, I’m interested in how economic and geo-political events and business decisions play out in everyday life - and I bring that into lessons to keep learning relevant, engaging, and memorable.

I have a BSc Economics & Business Finance from Brunel, a MBA and MA Organisation Studies from Warwick Business School.

I also have an interest in sustainability with a PG Dip Carbon Management from University of Edinburgh, and I am an associate of The Institute of Sustainability and Environmental Professionals with accreditation from the CFA Institute and United Nations in ESG.

I am a member of The Tutor Association, Chartered College of Teaching, with an Enhanced DBS certificate.
Safeguarding is a priority in my work, and I complete accredited safeguarding training annually.

Tutor Experience

I am a qualified teacher (QTS and PGCE with Distinction) and a full-time professional tutor specialising in A-level Economics and Business across all UK exam boards (Edexcel, AQA, OCR, Cambridge, Eduqas) and international variations.

I tutor students online worldwide, supporting learners from different school systems and cultural backgrounds, and I adapt each programme to the student’s starting point, confidence level, and target grade.

My experience ranges from building strong foundations for students new to Economics/Business to stretching high-achievers towards A/A* by refining exam technique, evaluation, and judgement. I’ve taught and supported students through key A-level skills such as diagrams, chains of reasoning, data interpretation, and applied case analysis.

My approach is structured and highly interactive: I diagnose gaps quickly, teach concepts clearly, then consolidate with exam-style questions using mark schemes to make examiner expectations explicit.

Students learn how to plan, structure, and write high-mark responses, including effective evaluation and well-supported conclusions. Between sessions, students receive focused independent tasks, actionable feedback on written work, and clear next steps so progress is measurable and sustained.

Client Reviews

great lesson. interactive lessons make me feel more confident for my upcoming AS exams.

- Economics

Amazing lessons. I enjoyed the structure and the way of explaining the material as well as approach to past papers. Lessons with Cengiz helped me in a span of less than a year go from a U to a B. Would highly recommend.

- Business

I really enjoy these business lessons, they help me work on areas that I am weak in and I definitely feel way more confident after these lessons. They feel friendly and fun but also help me become more confident in the subject and get closer to achieving an A o A*.

- Business Studies

Cengiz is very good at explaining how to approach exam questions and the way in which you apply the knowledge to other topics to deepen your understanding.

- Business Studies

Very helpful and insightful teaching

- Economics

Cengiz is superb with analysis, engagement, and making the lesson enjoyable. He strives to make sure you have full udnerstanding of everything you go over. Simply amazing!

- Business Studies

Very interactive and informative lessons, Cengiz is always very prepared with diagrams, theory and real world applications of which he explains clearly and in huge amounts of detail.

- Economics

Cengiz is a brilliant tutor. He is extremely knowledgable about the content from all exam boards and understands how and when to draw upon knowledge from his tutees. His tutorials are fun and engaging, and really attack the depths of the subject that will not be covered in the classroom, such as a practical understanding and real world application. Would highly recomend his services for students looking to elevate their grades, especially those looking to unlock an A*.

- Economics

Cengiz has really helped me improve my understanding and confidence in the subject. For example, he helped me build stronger chains of reasoning and evaluation by forcing me to dig deep and really get in between the lines such as explaining how higher interest rates can reduce inflation by lowering aggregate demand. His lessons are clear, supportive, and focused on improving my exam technique. I would highly recommend Cengiz to other A-level Economics students.

Testimonials

Kali - A-level Economics 2024/25

"My experience with Cengiz has been nothing short of exceptional. He has fully embraced the fact the fact that I am studying economics as an accelerated course. I am appreciative of the time he took to know me and present me with lessons featuring examples from both my home country and current country of residence. I approach each lesson with a sense of excitement which I have not found elsewhere, and I am now more confident in my ability to achieve my desired marks."

Becca - A-level Economics 2024/25

"Cengiz has really helped me to structure my approach to my A Level economics course in a well targeted and relevant way. He has been flexible and adaptable in his teaching styles, tailoring his approach to my needs and using a mixture of problem-solving tutorials and timed exam questions for me to complete outside of tutorials. His feedback and clarity of explanations has enabled me to consistently achieve significantly higher grades in practice questions – most especially in the 25 mark essays. I feel much more confident, thank you!"

Ivan - A-level Economics 2025/26

"Cengiz is a great tutor, and one of the best I had. He knows and covers the material in great depth and explains it in an understandable way. All his lessons are tailored to me specifically, covering my weak areas which he asked me to outline for him at the beginning of our sessions. This individual approach is what’s helping me understand the material better. The lessons are carried out in a very professional manner, with no time wasted on anything irrelevant, Cengiz focuses solely on our lesson. "

Khaled - A-level Economics 2024-26

"Cengiz played a huge role in helping me improve my grades — taking me from a C to an A. His detailed, constructive criticism on every essay helped me understand exactly where I was going wrong and how to improve. He didn’t just point out mistakes; he explained them clearly and pushed me to develop stronger arguments, better structure, and more precise evaluation. Thanks to his support and guidance, I became much more confident in my writing and exam technique."

Anika – A-level Economics 2024-26

My classes with Cengiz have helped me a lot and were of big support throughout the course. I really appreciated the structured approach he brought to every lesson. Cengiz’s clear breakdown of 14 and 20-mark questions - focusing on planning, structure and writing - made complex tasks manageable. Each class had a clear objective, and his consistent method for answering exam questions helped build both confidence and exam technique. I’m grateful for the clarity and support that I got from Cengiz. Thanks!
