Science

Every one of our Science tutors scored a distinction+ for Science in high school, has studied Physics, Chemistry or Biology at university, passed our intake Science exam with distinction, and then completed our tutor training programme with distinction.

• First, we assess the student to identify gaps in the fundamentals (what content don’t they know?) and common error types (how are they losing marks?).

• Then, we select a mentor from our team of science tutors. It is crucial for a student to ‘like’ their tutor and look forward to the lessons.

• The trained tutor comes to the house for high-impact one-on-one lessons where they actually teach the ideas and concepts.

• We set structured homework for the student to do in between lessons. When it comes to science, practice is key.

• We use projects, practical demonstrations, and experiments to excite the student and pique their interest.

• The student sits regular mock tests so that they can practice the skills under exam conditions, and we can monitor progress and increase their confidence.

• A student needs to familiarise themselves with the technical requirements of the memorandum in order to excel. We teach test-taking techniques.

• We supervise, guide and support the programme to ensure a great result.
