Personal Description:
I'm 26 years old and recently finished my Masters degree in Financial Economics in University College Cork. I'm currently working as a Senior Processing Executive having recently being working as a treasury dealer. I have a first class honors degree in business, majoring into Economic and Finance and received the the award for the top of the class.
Tutoring Experience:
I was tutoring during my masters degree, i taught over 200 students in three different modules. I was teaching two modules of third years and one module of second years. The classes were mainly Macro economics, therefore we covered a functions of GDP, monetary policy, fiscal policy and much more.
Before i was tutoring in University i was also a private tutor in modules such as Decision making and Finance and Capital Markets, these were one on one lessons.
Approach to Grinds:
I have quite a flexible approach to teaching, i like making complex concepts easy to understand. I use very simple examples so the student understands the logic and then we go from there. I don't mind what what level the student is at, i'm confident that i can bring you to the next level and not only get high marks but to appreciate the learning outcome of the module.
I like to see my students get high marks, however i'm also very interested to give them the knowledge to understand financial news, this also equips students to give relevant examples in their exams which lecturers admire, this is how i did very well in my honours and Masters Degree.

I am amazed at my progress so I highly recommend him.

From Steven (/5): (University Economics) I've just finished my first-year economics exams and more than likely would have failed miserably without Ian's help. I'm awaiting my results at the moment but confident of a good grade now after a few grinds with Ian and I understand a lot more about the subject. He's a very knowledgeable lad and a gent to boot. I'd highly recommend him to anybody that's struggling with economics.

From Eimir (/5): (University Accounting) I can not recommend Ian enough. He was able to deliver all the information Straight forward and make it easy to understand. It was evident that Ian genuinely cared and wanted to make sure that I understood what we were covering before moving on to something else. He went over and beyond and even sent follow up homework and feedback to ensure I had a firm grasp of the content. I can honestly say I wouldn’t have passed without having received the grinds… and now I’m confident that I will receive an A for my final exam.
Reply from Ian: Thanks very much for the feedback Eimir, it was great working with you and i'm also confident you got an A :-).
From Aley (/5): (University Economics) Ian is a top pick for exam preparation; he's very understanding of a student's needs/level and adapts his approach according. He makes sure to break things down in real terms when facing difficulties, while also being able to challenge you to meet your objectives.
After a lesson, I found his feedback questions very helpful in bench marking myself.
He is very reliable, always one message away and ready to make compromises to meet in a way that suits you.
10/10 recommend Ian

I would Highley recommend Ian too anyone looking for a tutor.
