Our one-day GCSE Chemistry exam technique courses are designed to help AQA GCSE Chemistry and Edexcel IGCSE Chemistry students master the skills needed for Paper 1 and Paper 2. With expert guidance from experienced tutors, you’ll gain a clear understanding of what examiners look for and how to secure top marks.
You’ll refine your approach to different question types, tackle practical-based questions with confidence, and learn how to understand and use mark schemes to structure your answers effectively. With a focus on clear and logical answering techniques, you’ll develop the skills to avoid common mistakes, improve accuracy, and present your answers clearly and concisely.
By the end of the day, you’ll feel confident, well-prepared, and ready to achieve your best results in your GCSE Chemistry exams.
If you need help deciding if you will benefit from this course you can contact us. Alternatively, you may prefer to book 1-2-1 tuition instead.
9:30am - 4:30pm (UK Time)
Classes are from 9.30am to 4.30pm. Registration starts from 9.15am.
There will be a 1 hour lunch break and a couple of 10 minute breaks in the morning and afternoon.
We are running one course for Edexcel IGCSE, unlike AQA where we are running a separate course for each paper. This is because all topics listed in the Edexcel IGCSE specification have the potential to appear on both Paper 1 and Paper 2. Therefore, the skills and topics we review in our course are applicable to either paper.
