About

I have been a fully qualified A level teacher for over 25 years. I am a committed professional who really enjoys teaching. I am friendly and approachable with (my students tell me!) an excellent sense of humour. My interests apart from Economics and business are cycling, walking, playing guitar and local history.

I have been teaching “A” level Economics for over 25 years, so I have a wealth of experience of the subject content, exam board requirements and revision and examination techniques as well as examiner experience. I have an excellent track record on pass rates and pride myself on getting students to achieve the grades they need. I particularly enjoy working with students who lack confidence or have had their learning disrupted for whatever reason. Students will be provided with the resources they need for each topic free of charge.

I have a highly professional approach to tutoring. I have a relaxed, encouraging style that brings out the best in students. I like to establish what the needs of the student are and adapt my teaching approach accordingly. I have developed a number of my own techniques for helping students get to grips with the more difficult topics.

Reviews from First Tutors

5.0 8 from First Tutors

Imported from Laurence M.'s First Tutors profile before the site went dark. Shown separately from Tutorperch reviews — today they don't feed this tutor's Tutorperch rating or ranking.

How we verify these

Each imported review went through admin review. The tutor proved ownership of the First Tutors profile via one of two paths:

  • Photo match. The First Tutors avatar matched the tutor's identity-verified Tutorperch photo, confirmed by admin.
  • Cryptographic email check. The tutor uploaded an original First Tutors email (.eml). We verified the DKIM signature against First Tutors' signing keys and cross-checked the embedded tutor ID against the claimed profile.

The review text is the original reviewer's own words, quoted as-is. We verified the tutor's ownership of the profile, not the truth of what each individual reviewer wrote.

    Laurence has been brilliant with my daughter in preparing for her A Levels. He went above and beyond to help her, and both her knowledge, exam technique and confidence really soared. We are extremely grateful for all the support Laurence gave to Amy and would wholeheartedly recommend him as a tutor.

    Thank you Catherine for your feedback, it was a pleasure to work with Amy.

    Laurence tutored my daughter A-level Economics (first year - lower sixth form). He is very knowledgable in the subject, professional, and has many tips for the exam techniques and resources to strengthen her knowledge. My daughter is very pleased that she achieved A in her end of year exam. Thank you Laurence for your help. We thoroughly recommend him as a tutor. Nicky

    Laurence is everything you would wish for in a tutor. He is professional, reliable, accommodating and engaging. In a brief period my son has come along leaps and bounds in his understanding of Economics and more importantly in his enjoyment of the subject. Laurence has gone above and beyond in setting work and marking some of it outside the time paid for. I couldn’t recommend Laurence more highly and it is obvious he is a skilled and very experienced educator. I feel very fortunate we managed to find him as we had a brief experience with another tutor who on paper should have been good but was very disappointing.

    Laurence prepares my son for his A Level Economics exam. We are very happy with the way Laurence structures and tailor-makes his lessons to help my son to achieve higher results and to work on the areas where my son needs improvements. Laurence explains things very thoroughly and is very patient. He has vast resources incl past exam papers to help my son to enhance his performance. Laurence is also punctual, knowledgeable about A Level curriculum and exam techniques and very well prepared for the lessons. We are very happy for Laurence and can highly recommend him as Economics tutor.

    Laurence is an amazing teacher! My daughter has gained so much knowledge and confidence in just a few lessons since she started with him. His style is relaxed and engaging which works well with my daughter. He sends extra work ahead of his lessons and checks what topics she wants to cover. Excellent all round and I can’t thank him enough!

    Laurence is knowledgable, punctual, friendly and knows what is required for exams. His lessons are interactive and he takes the time for the student to understand the topic in hand. Laurence is also quick to respond which is very helpful. I would highly recommend Laurence for A level Economics.

    Laurence is reliable and professional. He has excellent subject matter knowledge and extensive teaching and coaching experience. He combines these attributes well to enable him to explain the concepts and theory of Economics clearly and simply. He has the patience to cover and recover areas till they are fully understood by his students. Laurence has significantly helped my son in preparation for his A level Economics exams to help him get the high grade he needs for Oxford.
