Magnify the impact of your tutoring sessions!

Tutoring is incredibly effective when teaching students to apply core subject knowledge to answer exam questions. Unfortunately, students don’t always have the core knowledge, and it’s time-consuming for the tutor to know where the knowledge gaps are.

This is where GCSE Prepper comes in. Set realistic exam practise for your students to complete in their own time; then use GCSE Prepper’s intuitive reports to guide your lesson planning. When students turn up for the lessons, you can be confident they have a firm grip on the basics, and you’ll know what interventions will deliver the biggest impact.

 

Everything required to maximise the impact of every second spent

Decades of research by learning experts has shown spaced sessions of retrieval practise are the most effective way to prepare; particularly if the practice questions are as close as possible to those that will be faced in their final exam.

This is what GCSE Prepper does. Not only this, we provide students with detailed, tailored feedback after every attempt AND adjust the question selection to the individual needs of each student.

Tutors can access the marked homework to inform future lesson planning; confident in the knowledge that they will have secure foundations to build on when the time comes.

 

Realistic exam practice

The split of questions in GCSE Prepper exactly mirrors that of the final exam; uniquely offering the full range of question styles found on a science GCSE (including 6-markers). 

Adaptive learning

GCSE Prepper’s ‘optimised’ mode tailors question selection to meet the needs of the student; based on their ability, strengths and weaknesses and what they’ve been taught.

Detailed, tailored feedback

After every attempt, we provide students with a mark and comprehensive advice on how to improve if they’ve lost marks. It’s like having an expert tutor sat beside them as they revise.

Complementary revision guides

The ‘need a hint’ button on each question opens the correct page of our online revision guide – so students can quickly close any knowledge gaps. Links to relevant revision content are emailed after every session.

Intuitive reporting

Helping tutors and parents to track effort and identify any knowledge gaps so that they can focus future lesson in the areas that will generate the biggest uplift in exam performance.

Exam board-specific content

All content is completely bespoke to the exam board AND to the qualification. We cover 100% of each specification and NOTHING more. 

Scientifically proven revison techniques

A massive amount of scientific research has been spent investigating which revision techniques deliver the best return on effort expended. Two clear winners have emerged:

  1. Test yourself.
  2. Spread your revision out (AKA distributed practise).

GCSEPrepper was designed to enable students to test themselves as effectively and efficiently as possible to maximise the return they receive from every minute of revision. Click here to find out more.
