What is an Economics tutor job?

An Economics tutor job at Edutara is part-time, one-to-one teaching of senior secondary economics.

What a strong economics tutor brings to each class

Edutara asks for no degree certificate, no B.Ed and no set years of experience. College students who know their economics well are welcome to apply. Here is what helps a learner most.

Command of the four courses

  1. Statistics: mean, median and mode, correlation including rank correlation with repeated ranks, and index numbers such as WPI, CPI and IIP
  2. Microeconomics: indifference curves and the budget line, price elasticity by the percentage-change and total expenditure methods, and perfect competition
  3. Macroeconomics: GDP, GNP, NDP and NNP at market price and factor cost, the GDP deflator, the investment multiplier and the government budget
  4. Indian Economic Development: the 1947-90 years, reforms since 1991 under LPG, demonetization, GST, human capital and sustainable development

Feel for how each board marks

  1. The CBSE question design: 40% remembering and understanding, 30% applying, 30% analysing, evaluating and creating
  2. ISC numericals on dispersion, index numbers and elasticity by the percentage method, with diagrams wherever needed
  3. Producer equilibrium by the TR-TC and MR-MC approaches, with the shut-down and break-even points drawn clearly

Patience with curves and words

  1. Redrawing a demand or supply shift slowly until the learner can sketch it alone
  2. Asking for the economic interpretation after every numerical, as the CBSE curriculum expects
  3. Calm help for a humanities learner meeting index numbers and the ogive for the first time

Set up for online economics

  1. A device with camera and microphone and a connection that holds a video call
  2. A whiteboard app or shared screen for cost curves, circular flow diagrams and frequency tables

8 questions answered

  1. Which classes and boards will I teach as an economics tutor?

    Mostly Class 11 and Class 12. CBSE learners study Statistics for Economics and Introductory Microeconomics in Class 11, then Introductory Macroeconomics and Indian Economic Development in Class 12. ISC learners take Economics 856, where Class 11 adds Indian economic development and statistics to the basics, and Class 12 is micro and macro theory. You tell Edutara which of these you are comfortable teaching.

  2. Do I have to teach statistics as well as theory?

    Statistics is 40 of the 80 theory marks in CBSE Class 11, so a learner in that class will usually want help with it: data presentation through bar and pie diagrams, histograms and ogives, central tendency, correlation and index numbers. If your strength is Class 12 macro and development, say so on the form and Edutara matches you to learners who need exactly that.

  3. Will learners want help with their economics project?

    Often, yes. CBSE asks for one project per session of 3,500 to 4,000 words, preferably hand-written, presented to an external and an internal examiner. ISC Class 11 sets two projects of 10 marks each with a viva, and Class 12 projects are assessed by the teacher and a visiting examiner. You help the learner choose a topic, plan the work and prepare for the viva, and the learner writes it.

  4. Can I teach economics to CUET-UG aspirants?

    Yes. CUET-UG lists Economics / Business Economics as paper 309, and its syllabus covers Introductory Microeconomics, Introductory Macroeconomics and Indian Economic Development. Per the 2025 NTA bulletin, each paper had 50 compulsory questions in 60 minutes, with plus 5 for a correct answer and minus 1 for a wrong one, so practice under time pressure matters.

  5. Can I teach economics in Hindi medium?

    Yes. CBSE notes that its prescribed economics books are also available in Hindi medium, and many learners prefer to study the subject in Hindi. Mention on your application that you can teach in Hindi, English or both.

  6. Economics tutor job part time while in college, is it possible?

    Yes. College students are welcome to apply, and there is no degree or experience requirement. Classes are arranged around the time you can give, so you can keep a learner or two alongside your own lectures and exams.

  7. How do home and online economics classes differ?

    At home you sit beside the learner with their NCERT textbook and notebook. Online, the class is a live video call with one learner; you draw curves and tables on a shared screen or whiteboard app, and the learner holds written work to the camera or sends a photo of it.

  8. How am I paid for economics lessons?

    The learner pays Edutara, and Edutara pays you for every lesson you teach and log once it is confirmed. Each class offer states its rate before you accept it, and you never collect money from a learner. Joining costs nothing, and there is no charge per lead.

Teach economics one learner at a time

If you can make elasticity, national income and India's reforms since 1991 clear to a Class 12 learner, Edutara pairs you with Class 11 and 12 learners who need exactly that.
