Understanding how to help your child prepare for their exams can be a minefield.

Ensure that your child becomes familiar with the format of the National 5, Higher or Advanced Higher exams that they will be sitting by looking at past papers. This not only gives you a flavour of how the questions are phrased but also the key topic areas that the examinations tend to focus on assessing. Target your child’s revision to these areas to maximise exam success.

It is vital that your child’s life does not become dominated by revision and that they have plenty of time to enjoy their own interests. Too much revision can cause unnecessary stress. By setting up a structured weekly timetable for revision, you will ensure that your child is retaining the relevant knowledge and information as well as having all important down time.

Different strokes for different folks has never been a more apt phrase than when talking about revision. Be active and not passive when learning. Some children revise by making small cue cards, some write notes highlighting keywords and others are more visual and construct their own mind maps or diagrams. Just looking and trying and memorise from a textbook will not aid the learning process.

In order to maximise learning in the long-term, children must explore and experiment when trying to find answers. By encouraging this freedom of learning and making it acceptable to fail, your child will become more resilient and be willing to try again if revision sessions do not always seem successful.

Revision is a highly personal process and the time management and self-discipline that it requires will benefit your child beyond their exams. By booking a place on revision courses you are ensuring that your child will receive well structured, expertly delivered teaching that will cater to your child’s revision needs. Our revision courses offer an in-depth look at exam knowledge and techniques.

“Graeme of Scholar Tutoring, said ‘As a parent, it can be difficult to help your children when they come up against some of the more academic challenges. Subjects are often taught differently from when you were at school, so it can hard to help in the way that you want to.”

“Scholar Tutoring runs Revision Course at key points in the academic year,  we are always on hand to help with their revision keeping it on the right track, iron out any little difficulties and build their confidence in the run-up to their exams.”

As specialists in providing revision courses, we understand the importance of ensuring your child is as prepared and as confident as possible prior to sitting their exams. By attending high-quality revision courses throughout the academic year, our students improve their chances of attaining their target grades.

Scholar Tutoring has been providing revision course over the last seven year and one 2 one tutoring for fourteen years. Over this time revision courses have certainly grown in popularity, and they can be a really effective way for students to initiate their revision. In the same token, these courses offer content, structure and exam practice all in one go!

Many students who take these courses might already be set to pass, but might also be hoping to use their revision course to boost them into the top grades, rather than just coasting through.

An Revision course cannot suddenly convert school terms of neglect into top grades, but- of course- these revision sessions can be of huge benefit in boosting marks and potential grades.

Teachers of our courses are enthusiastic and experienced: they can fill in any gaps that students may have, as well as reiterate the learning students will previously have covered. These teachers can inform students of what examiners want, and will help to develop exam skill- with plenty of past-paper practice.
