My Passion & How I Inspire

STEP 1: Getting to know the tutee to understand their motivations and thinking style.

STEP 2: Ensuring full coverage of the exam board syllabus by assessing gaps in the tutee’s knowledge and making a structured plan to close these gaps in the time available. Setting goals to focus efforts on maximising exam scores and to feel good about the progress being made as the exam dates draw closer.

STEP 3: Tackling each topic by relating abstract concepts to a real world context and creating strong links to knowledge that the tutee already possesses. This will make the topics more interesting, easier to understand and store in long-term memory.

STEP 4: Utilising fun and creative note-taking techniques that are aligned with how the human memory system works to make revision more effective and engaging.

STEP 5: Practising past exam papers and providing plenty of personal feedback on answering different types of questions with an aim to internalise answering procedures for each topic. Developing procedural knowledge to compliment the conceptual knowledge will build up answering speed and confidence that is necessary to be successful in exam conditions.
