About Revi

In the past 12 years, I've officially lectured and taught students at leading institutions including at LSE, University of Oxford, Sciences Po and Stanford University. During these years, I've been the recipient of five teaching awards, awarded from the LSE, including an award in Innovative Teaching. I've also taken part in the selection process of incoming undergraduate students at both the University of Oxford and the dual degree of Columbia and Sciences Po. I believe both my experience and past performance make me one of the best tutors in London for undergraduate and graduate students studying economics, management or related subjects. *Official* teaching experience: LSE: Introduction to Economics (EC102), Mathematics and Statistics for Economists (EC400), Econometrics: Theory and Application (MG205), Managerial Economics (MG207 & MG431), Quantitative Analysis in Management (MG461), Marketing (MG101), Intermediate Microeconomics (EC220), Econometrics for Graduate students (EC402), Industrial Economics (EC313) etc University of Oxford: Finance, Introduction to Economics (Prelims), Industrial Organisation (3rd-year option), Quantitative Methods (2nd-year course), Econometrics (Graduate-level course for MPhil in Economics) Sciences Po: Macroeconomics, Development Economics, Introduction to Statistics, Econometrics Stanford University: International Trade (for visiting student at University of Oxford) I've also privately tutored a wide array of Economics, Statistics, Management and Business courses from GCSE to PhD level.

My approach to tutoring borrows from the Socratic approach of a question-centric form of teaching. A serious emphasis is placed on the structure and content of the exam in question. I structure my tutorials so that relevant past exam questions are always an integral part of learning. Here is what my former LSE students have said, via anonymous surveys: “Even though Revi was not my assigned class teacher, whenever I did attend his classes, he would always go the extra mile to make sure we understood inside out the topic of the class. Wherever possible, Revi would apply what we had learnt to the real world, making every class stimulating and inspirational. His teaching made the course one of my favourites at the LSE, and he made the course a joy to study.” “Made subject matter inspirational” “He inspires the class and motivates each one to push in more.” “Excellent variety of teaching methods which allows students to engage with the course material in a practical way. Also goes beyond the course to ensure students have relevant theories which can be applied in a practical sense. Uses current market issues and structures to teach the theory of industrial economics from a modern-day perspective” “Revi's intelligent use of well-placed questions to engage students and involve them in his explanations removes the abstractness of microeconomics and brings the subject to life. As an applied discipline, this is obviously of huge importance, and Revi's frequent use of "look around you" examples transforms odd, theoretical concepts into simple, intuitive ideas. Whereas the rest of my teachers at LSE use questions arbitrarily without purpose (often slowing the class down, especially as students are reluctant to put their hand up to answer easy questions), Revi has clearly put thought into when, how and what he asks. He also picks out students to answer. I cannot stress how much of a difference this has made. As students, we're all on our toes, we're actually paying attention and when we're thrown a difficult question, we make an effort to answer it (there's no longer a fear of putting your hand up and looking stupid). I would love to go on but the character limit cuts me off...” “Is a teacher that is passionate about his subject and makes himself available to students at all times. He is an excellent teacher of the course content. For example, he taught us Game Theory by giving us an interesting history of the subject and then asking us what problems we had with the problem set, before specifically addressing these issues and clarifying all of our problems. He consistently gets people outside his class attending his classes because he is a quality teacher.”

  • When did you develop an interest in your chosen field and in private tutoring?

    My mother was a mathematics teacher and she tutored in the evenings both maths and physics. One evening she couldn't make her scheduled lesson with a student 2 years younger than me and she asked me to replace her. I was in 8th grade and loved the experience! I have been in love with teaching and tutoring ever since. I developed a passion for Finance and Economics while a graduate student at the LSE in 2009-10.
  • Tell us more about the subject you teach, the topics you like to discuss with students (and possibly those you like a little less).

    I teach a variety of subjects that are centered around Economics, Finance and Mathematics. I have taught a wide range of subjects at both undergraduate and graduate level officially and privately. I am happy to talk about any topics that interest the student, but I'm very fond of Finance and Industrial Economics (or Microeconomics in general).
  • Did you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you?

    When I was a graduate student at the LSE in 09-10 I was taught by Prof. Vassilis Hajivassiliou. His way of teaching Econometrics was both unique and inspirational. He went from general to specifics, and that is the point when econometrics came to light for me. I have borrowed a lot from his teaching style in Econometrics. Prof. Alwyn Young at LSE was also an inspiration. As one of his graduate teaching assistants many years ago, I was able to see first hand his dedication for teaching and I found particularly engaging and insightful the way he taught Macroeconomics. Finally, my supervisor while a PhD student at University of Oxford, Prof. Steve Bond, taught me to be more patient and improved my clarity of expression while at the same time making me a better economist and econometrician.
  • What do you think are the qualities required to be a good tutor?

    Love for teaching, a deep and genuine care for your tutees, a desire to constantly improve your technical skills, and a willingness to adapt to your students.
  • Provide a valuable anecdote related to your subject or your days at school.

    I believe I got this joke from Prof. Chris Pissarides (Nobel Prize winner of 2010), as he was teaching labour markets one day at LSE he said to the class something along the lines of "the benefit of being an economist is that if you are ever unemployed, you will know why!"
  • What were the difficulties or challenges you faced or still facing in your subject?

    I think Economics and Finance have become increasingly mathematical in nature and I only realized this as a graduate student at LSE. It took some getting used to the formality and the rigour of economics as a student. Today a lot of my tutees are facing the same difficulties and I can certainly sympathise with them.
  • Do you have a particular passion? Is it teaching in general or an element of the subject or something completely different?

    Teaching is my main passion. In addition, finance and the world of investments is another passion of mine.
  • What makes you a Superprof (besides answering these interview questions :-P) ?

    The love of teaching, my technical skills, and a sense of duty and care towards any of my students and their families.
