JC ECONOMICS

H2 Economics

“Economics is the art to meet unlimited needs with scarce resources.” – Laurence J. Peter

Our H2 JC Economics Programme equips students with an in-depth understanding of key economic concepts that are covered in the syllabus. During group sessions, students will discuss real-world events that had raised debate amongst economists, and learn to question economic theories, ie. how applicable are those theories in real-life situations? Additionally, they will receive carefully-crafted notes which are fruits of labor from our tutors, after many years of teaching experience and taking into consideration the common struggles faced by students. Most of all, our teachers make lessons interactive and engaging for the students, encouraging them to speak up in class and clear their doubts proactively. At the end of the day, students will learn to explain and analyse economic issues using economic reasoning and come up with their own evaluations.

In our JC Economics class, students will delve into exciting discussions and debates regarding the economic theories in their syllabus. Instead of merely understanding the topics taught in school, our students will be trained to pose questions and form a detailed analysis of real-world events. They will be able to use economic reasoning to derive their own evaluations. Our JC Economics program introduces students to different question types that are similar to the structure of the ‘A’ level Economics examination. Apart from developing a keen mind, students will also have the opportunity to hone their academic writing, critical thinking, and vocal skills in a safe classroom scenario.

• Understanding of economic theories and application on real-life examples
