Revision Course Outline April 2023
For the fifth academic year running, during the Easter school holidays I`ll be offering a limited number of places for online A2 revision courses. My online Chemistry A Level Easter crash courses span three days and are designed to get Year 13 students up to speed for their final exams
During the course, students will recap everything they learned during the academic year, refreshing their knowledge and identifying and polishing any weaker areas. They’ll also develop their exam technique, ensuring they’ve got the know-how, skills and confidence to maximise their marks when they sit their exam.
My Easter crash course is a great way to take revision up a notch, giving students the knowledge, skills and confidence to succeed in their summer exams.
The course will take place online via zoom. It is entirely up to the student as to how much they wish to be involved in the sessions. I know some students like to quietly absorb the information and message me questions privately, whereas some students will wish to contribute by sharing their answers and ask questions in front of the group. Following each day students will be sent the notes for each session, and also provided with access to a wealth of question-based resources. I will record each session and can provide students with the recordings on request.
