Contact the student you'll be tutoring. Arrange a time and place to meet.
Ask the student what areas she is having the most difficulty with. Listen openly and take note of issues she may be having.
Start with the basics. In many cases, a student will have misunderstood one or two founding principles of economics, such as opportunity costs or supply and demand curves.
Work upward toward more difficult issues, such as gross domestic product or inflation.
Ask questions along the way to make sure your pupil is understanding the work. Test him through sessions together, just to verify that he understands as much as you think he does.
Assign homework or key items to consider. This will help bridge the gap between tutoring sessions effectively and will keep your pupil thinking about economics, even while away.
