"I really enjoyed the opportunity to participate in the Unit 3 Economics Webinar towards the end of Term 1. Ryan’s infectious enthusiasm transcended the divide over the Zoom screen and ensured that teachers, regardless of their experience in teaching Economics, was able to reflect on their work and find new and engaging ways to support their students."
Christopher Weinberg
Commerce Teacher, Melbourne Grammar School
"I found Ryan’s website a valuable resource this year. The assessment tasks included contemporary examples that addressed many of the new key knowledge and skills from the Study Design, which was exactly what I was looking for. The tasks also included more challenging questions which stretched some of my stronger students. Ryan’s online revision workshops were also a great chance for my students to engage with an experienced VCAA assessor to help them unpack exam questions and explore areas where they can add value to their responses."

"Ryan Shave is an incredible tutor. Not only is he unbelievably knowledgeable but he’s energetic, creative and wonderfully engaging with everyone involved in the meeting. I was especially impressed with his breakdowns and advice of exam-style questions. My class is already benefiting from his advice.
If anyone is new to teaching Economics and looking to improve their practice, I would absolutely recommend getting in touch with Ryan."

"Being new to teaching economics, with no background in studying it, it was a challenging time, but Learn Lab was able to provide help in a variety of ways; from answering questions to extending my higher level students via zoom sessions to providing resources that were contemporary (extra valuable in a constantly evolving subject like economics), and even just providing functional lesson ideas that engage a variety of learners and abilities."

"I developed a profound passion for economics, and taking it in year 12 proved to be an extraordinary experience. However, I faced certain challenges along the way, particularly in grasping complex concepts and theories. Thankfully, having
Ryan by my side during those times made a significant difference. Ryan was always approachable and took the time to focus on the essential aspects. He consistently reminded me of key exam topics and provided valuable guidance on how to approach them. Beyond
being a teacher, Ryan's deep love for economics was evident as he continually connected the subject matter to real-world applications, making the entire course far more engaging and captivating. Thanks to his dedication and support, I excelled in economics
during year 12, achieving one of my highest VCE scores. I am truly grateful for the time and effort Ryan invested in helping and instructing me. I would highly suggest Ryan to any student studying economics."

"Ryan is a very energetic teacher. In a time where I had no teacher at my school to teach economics, he helped me learn all the content I needed. He has been clear and concise whilst ensuring he arranges the lesson to target areas that I have struggled with the most. He is a great tutor that assigns the right amount of homework to ensure our lessons are worthwhile and he has given me lots of tips. He is an awesome tutor and I highly recommend him as someone who knows the study design and content perfectly."

"Thank you very much for an insightful session. I appreciate that you made an effort to get around to everyone's questions. The powerpoint allowed me to follow along easily and breaking down the questions with you was really helpful. I like how the session was tailored specifically to the people in it, allowing us to gain more and fill in any gaps we have in our knowledge. I liked how you made sure to take time throughout the session to make sure everyone was on the same page and allow for questions. Furthermore, I think asking us to send you questions helped push the group to think and gave people who are not as comfortable asking questions an opportunity to ask. Asking us what we had taken away was also helpful in allowing us to consolidate and identify what we had just learnt. On the whole it was very worthwhile for me to attend and I now feel more confident in my understanding of this area of study and my ability to take these skills into a SAC or exam setting. Thank you so much."

"The session was really useful in the sense that I was able to get a close understanding of the content we are covering in relation to the VCAA study design and how I can relate my knowledge of the content based on what the assessors are expecting to see in our answers. On top of that, I was really comfortable asking questions and felt that my questions were answered in a lot of depth and helped my understanding."
