Autumn Half Term Revision Courses

Course Details

Having just started the academic year, it may seem a strange time to attend a revision course.  We think it’s a great idea.  Here at Oxford Science Studies we believe that continual consolidation of learning is a key element of exam success, starting from the very beginning.  The Autumn Half Term Revision Course is a great opportunity for students to process the new content learnt so far, overcoming any early confusion with expert tutors as their guide.

The Benefits

  • Help with all levels, be that revision for GCSE, IGCSE, IB or A Level
  • Create a bespoke timetable, selecting the specific subjects and papers to suit your revision needs, with the chance to focus on both subject content and exam practice, and maybe even touch on exam technique
  • Spend time with expert, experienced tutors in a friendly and relaxed learning environment.  Students feel comfortable, and are more at ease to ask pressing questions and gain the individual help they need
  • Fit revision in around your holiday plans, selecting dates and a course delivery to suit you, with face to face and online revision courses available
  • Choose from small group or guaranteed one to one tuition
"An excellent resource for students, both my children have greatly benefitted from the OXSS holiday revision courses at GCSE and A Level and I would highly recommend them."

The Timetable:

Please see the below example timetable, demonstrating a four day revision course.  Students may select one subject/paper per day. 

Our trusted teach and test method allows students to review subject content, working through troubling areas with our expert tutors, then putting their learning into practice via exam style questions during the independent exam practice.  This method allows students to confirm their understanding, identify any other trouble areas, and gain experience answering the type of questions that will feature in the exam, in an environment that provides them with support and feedback, aiming to build their confidence. 

We believe that a 50 minute tutorial is optimum for concentration and our timetable provides sufficient breaks to ensure that students remain refreshed, throughout the day and ready for learning.  Following the course, our expert tutors complete detailed feedback reports, to support the student with their onward study.

For small group study, our maximum timetabled class size is 6 students, though the average is usually smaller than this.
