Imran

I completed my Ph.D. in economics at the University of Leicester in 2012. I have substantial experience (more than 18 years) in teaching and module leadership in various UK based higher education. In addition to teaching I am a research active academic. I also have a strong background in economics, econometrics and statistics and I enjoy teaching and helping students. I am engaged in high quality research on time series econometrics, monetary policy, energy economics, fiscal policy and applied macroeconomics.

Tutoring Experience

I am currently working as a Lecturer (teaching focused) in Economics. I design all course syllabuses, select textbooks and write lectures and tests over the material. In addition, I have been supervising PhD students (currently, one in number), master’s dissertations and undergraduate final year projects, who have been producing high quality work to a publishable standard. My teaching experience at different universities (Bath, Bristol and Leicester) includes teaching a variety of class sizes, from 25 to 365 students. Subjects of teaching include Econometrics, Economics for Events and MarketingMicroeconomics, Macroeconomics, Maths for Economists, IT for Economics, Statistics, Time Series Econometrics, Multiple Regression, Stata, and EViews.

Tutoring Approach

I believed that the best teachers are those who care the most about teaching, who are well organised and who approachable by students. This passion of effective teaching is achieved through preparation, continuous evolution of teaching skills, and the pleasure of watching students succeed in all other economics courses. Truly passionate teachers help students transfer the economic training outside of the classroom and into the real world.
My teaching evaluations display a high level of appreciation on the part of students. I have always received excellent student feedback and was highly rated by students for my performance. I pay special attention to delivering lectures that combine high academic standards with passionate teaching and a clear policy focus when relevant. Students appreciate the positive learning environment that I provide them with, and my availability to answer their concerns and questions with enthusiasm. Clearly stated learning objectives for the students are at the heart of my pedagogy, together with fair evaluation based on a comprehensive coverage of the material. Students should always be able to assess what’s being expected from them, and to anticipate how successful fulfilments of course requirements with translate into their final grade.
