Step Forward Tuition host revision groups on Thursdays 7.30-8.30pm where higher level students come and assist lower-level students in English, Maths and Science. The sessions are free of charge as we believe revision in conjunction with quality tuition is one of the most effective ways for our students to pass.
In our revision sessions we give our students lots of scaffolded resources to complete in topics we believe they struggle in most and that have been requested the most. We also have 3 study rooms in the centre that are free to use and have multiple resources to access.
Paired and grouped revision has been found highly effective when revising for exams. It increases motivation and mutual support and feeds similar expectations. It enables peer learning and ensures that students are engaged throughout.
Students often struggle to know how to revise, so what are the options?
Creating power points of a chosen topic
Researching information on the internet
Writing out flashcards and using textbooks
Quizzing and brainstorming in groups
Watching video clips
Presenting your information to friends
Some helpful revision websites to access whilst at home in one of our revision sessions or when in one of our study rooms:
