I am an economics tutor in Singapore teaching IGCSE Economics, IB Economics and A-Level Economics. My focus is on the fundamentals of exam performance — structured essays, evaluation and answering to mark schemes.
I started teaching because I remembered what it felt like to understand concepts yet still lose marks. Most students I work with have the knowledge — they need the strategy and frameworks to show it under exam conditions.

The KiNG Economics Frameworks
Students moving from understanding to scoring
Three defined systems that Kirby Ng uses to teach evaluation, structured essays and the fundamentals of economics exam technique across A-Level Economics, IB Economics and IGCSE Economics.
A repeatable system for writing structured essays in economics. Each essay follows a defined sequence: thesis statement, theoretical explanation with diagram, real-world application and evaluation. Students learn to build structured essays that meet mark scheme requirements for A-Level Economics, IB Economics and IGCSE Economics — removing guesswork from essay writing and replacing it with a consistent, mark-scoring format rooted in the fundamentals.
A method for identifying command words, content keywords and context cues in economics exam questions. Students are trained to extract the analytical sequence from any question before writing — ensuring that every paragraph is targeted and relevant. This framework reinforces the fundamentals of structured essays and evaluation for students sitting A-Level Economics, IB Economics or IGCSE Economics papers.
A structured approach to evaluation that goes beyond generic two-sided analysis. Students learn to evaluate using real-world context, time-frame considerations, magnitude assessment and policy effectiveness criteria. This evaluation framework is specifically designed to meet the evaluation standards of A-Level Economics, IB Economics and IGCSE Economics examinations — building from fundamentals to the evaluative depth examiners reward.
Each level has its own syllabus, exam format and marking criteria. Kirby Ng's teaching is built around each one specifically.

My name is Kirby and yes, that's my real name.
Yes, Kirby is my real name. Mum did name me that. Why 51? A tribute to baseball legend Ichiro Suzuki, a player I really liked since young - Ichiro Suzuki. Ichiro was far from a stereotypical baseball player - and built his career on speed, discipline, and mastering the fundamentals.
I've always believed that how you do one thing is how you do everything. As I grew into my current self, I have always aimed to be like him - subtle, focused and disciplined.
In my lessons, I hope to train my students to be equally focused in their economics exams.
My other hobbies include writing, playing and watching baseball and the occasional manga and anime. (My students get my personal recommendations at the end of each exam year.)
I'm bilingual - fluent in Cantonese (helpful for Hong Kong students) - and I hope to take up a third language someday.
