Four concepts underpin every economics course: scarcity, supply and demand, trade-offs, and incentives.

• Scarcity is the gap between limited resources and unlimited desires, which forces trade-offs.
• Supply and demand describes how prices form in a market: when demand rises and supply stays fixed, prices tend to climb.
• Rational choices involve comparing total benefits to total costs, especially the hidden cost of alternatives not taken.
• An incentive is anything that motivates a person or firm to act differently, from bonuses to regulations.

Understanding these four ideas gives you a solid framework for analysing almost any economic question.⚡ What does studying economics involve?

A private economics lesson in Woodcroft averages $40/h.

The exact cost varies several factors:

• The student's level (beginner, intermediate, or advanced)
• The tutor's experience and qualifications (university-trained, exam markers, working economists)
• The length and frequency of sessions (regular lessons or short-term revision courses)
• The lesson format (in-home, at a library, or remote)

Many tutors offer discounted rates when you book multiple sessions, which helps lower the per-hour cost.

Studying economics means exploring how individuals, firms, and governments make choices about money, resources, and policy.

• Micro focuses on small-scale decisions: what drives consumer behaviour, how firms maximise profit, and when governments should intervene.
• Macroeconomics examines the economy as a whole — GDP, inflation, unemployment, interest rates, and international trade.

The subject trains you to think systematically about trade-offs, making it useful in careers from finance to public policy.
