Chemistry A Level Easter Revision Course – Online

Course Information

Course Description

Our online Chemistry A Level Easter crash courses span four days and are designed to get Year 13 students up to speed for their final exams. They include classes taught by experienced chemistry teachers who know what it takes to achieve excellent exam results.

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.

In addition to online classes, students will receive a physical package of high-quality revision materials. Professionally printed and bound, these tailor-made resources have been designed to make revision easy and digestible, both during and after the course.

Our Easter crash courses are a great way to take revision up a notch, giving students the knowledge, skills and confidence to succeed in their summer exams.

Suitable for:

  • Year 13 students
  • Students wanting to revise content
  • Students looking to improve exam technique
  • Year 12 students
  • Students working at a grade D or below

How do your online A Level Chemistry revision courses work?

Our online revision courses take place within Google Classroom, keeping everything organised in one convenient hub. From here, you’ll be able to access our bespoke course resources and join the live lessons which take place on Google Meet.

Students can interact with the teacher using their microphone or the chat feature.

All sessions are recorded. The lesson recordings are uploaded after each day, allowing you to watch them back for a recap whenever you like.

When will I receive the Google Classroom link for my online revision course?

You should receive your Google Classroom link via email the day before your course starts. Sometimes these emails go to the junk folder so check there before contacting us if you haven’t received it.

When will I receive my revision course handouts?

You will receive physical copies of the handouts 3-5 days before the start of your online course, as long as you book with us before the printing deadline. You can find the printing deadline in the course summary box on each booking page.

Please note: we can only send printed handouts to students in the UK. 

What if my exam board isn’t listed?

If you can’t see your exam board then we are afraid we aren’t running a course for it. However, this doesn’t mean that one of our courses won’t be useful for you. Contact us to see which course is more closely aligned with your exam board.
