A-Level Economics Easter Revision Crash Course 2026 - (35 hours)

Course 1: Edexcel (A) Syllabus | Central London Location | 9:00–16:00, Monday 30 March - Friday 3rd April | Max 11 students (avg. 7)

Course 2: Edexcel (A) Syllabus | Central London Location | 9:00–16:00, Monday 30 March - Friday 3rd April | Max 11 students (avg. 7)

A high-intensity, four-day revision programme designed to raise grades fast. We cover the entire Edexcel A specification with ruthless focus on exam technique, evaluation, and synoptic application. Many past students have moved from C/B to A/A* between mocks and finals.

The single most important factor in how effective any crash course is the tutor running it. This course is taught personally by Mehdi Naqvi (profile below).

Past student experiences

  • “My daughter went in panicking before her mocks, barely scraping a D. By the end of the week, she was explaining concepts back to me. She achieved an A in her final results. We are so grateful we found this course

    Parent, Wellington College - Final Grade A

  • “The course was intense but clear. The teacher was very engaging, and helpful. I highly recommend.”

    Student, Rugby School – Final Grade: A *

  • Didn’t think it was possible to cover the full course in four days, but we did. Mehdi made every topic click, and the constant essay and exam quesiton practice helped me jump from a B to an A.”

    Student, MPW London - Final Grade A

  • Joined the course after getting a C in the February mock exams. By the last day I genuinely understood everything. Final result: A in A-level Economics.

    Student, Marlborough College - Final Grade A*

  • “Outstanding week. Went through the entire course from start to finish, tutor answered all the quesitons I had and explained all concepts very clearly. I achieved a low C in my mock exam prior to the course, and ended up with an A* in Economics"

    Parent, Eton College - Final Grade A*

  • Great course and great tutor! loved it. Clear explanations, lots of exam question practice and quick content coverage. Achieved a high A in the end, 2 marks off an A*, which is fine as I got my place at UCL. Thanks!"

    Student, Bancroft's School - Final Grade A

Why Choose This Course

  • This course is built for serious A-Level Economics students who want to see real results, whether that means turning things around, building confidence, or pushing for the very top grade.

    Over the years, I’ve taught students from every starting point, from those walking in with a C/D grade in their mocks to those already on an A aiming for an A*. What matters isn’t where you start, but how you show up.

    Many of my past Easter crash-course students have seen extraordinary jumps, including several who moved from a C to an A or A* within a single exam cycle, just weeks after the course.

    The programme is intensive, practical, and results-driven. Across the four days, we’ll:

    • Cover the entire Edexcel Economics specification clearly and efficiently

    • Tackle high-frequency exam questions and common examiner traps

    • Build mastery of essay technique and evaluation skills

    • Refine time management, structure, and precision under pressure

  • Whether you’re catching up, consolidating, or chasing perfection, this course will give you clarity, structure, and momentum — all in a motivating small-group environment.
