GCSE Science tuition
£50 per one hour session
GCSE science come in several options:
- Combined Science where all three sciences are taught with the outcome of two GCSE exam grades.
- Triple Science where each of the biology ,chemistry and physics subjects include further topics meaning that it has a ultimate exam value of three GCSE grades.
Then of course you can have the options of higher or foundation levels. As well as the main two specification options of Edexcel and AQA. There are of course other specification options but these two are the options I've taught in my 20 plus years of teaching and tutoring.
My starting point GCSE is to start from tutee's and parents initial feedback on current grades and strengths and weaknesses. We then work on filling gaps, clearing up misconceptions and giving plenty of practice in the type of questions that will come up in assessments.
As an experienced examiner for both GCSE and A level I can direct tutee's to the key area's to work on, what to watch out for and how to develop their answers fully.
Each session is fully resourced with carefully curated materials to engage students using a wide range of engaging and interactive activities including quizzes, short video clips and short and long answer questions.
My aims are to boost tutee's confidence in their own ability, in order for them to acheive the very best exam result they are capable of. I work to help the student understand that they often know and understand far more than they think they do. I encourage students to trust their intincts and take leaps of faith which they often struggle to do in the classroom setting.
Students learn to verbalise their undertanding and explain how they came to the answer they did .We will work together to help them develop their scientific reasoning and how to write their answers down using the correct keywords to maximise their marks in assessments.
I have a lots of experience teaching and tutoring students of all abilities and needs. As each session is tailored to the individiual student.
Tutoring can be helping high level students to attain the highest of grades by challenging their understanding and applying them to the hardest topics and questions.
It can also be working with struggling students who may lack engagement in lessons with significant gaps in knowledge and low confidence in their scientific knowledge with significant misconceptions .
I have had numerous messages from parents expressing their joy that their child has rediscovered an earlier love of science once they have had just a few tuition sessions with me , due to them being able access the learning in lessons once again.
