Physics Year 12 May Half-term Revision Course – Online

Course Information

Course Description

Our May half-term Physics recap courses are designed to prepare students for their end-of-year exams or to round up Year 12. To ensure students only learn what they need to for their specification we offer different classes tailored to specific exam boards – all of which are taught by our professional team of highly experienced tutors.

During the course, students will review the key topics from their first year of A Level Physics, with a strong emphasis on exam technique. Through past paper questions, they’ll practice crafting answers that maximise marks while learning to avoid common pitfalls. Working topic by topic, students will consolidate their subject knowledge and focus on improving any weaker areas.

In addition to giving students the confidence to succeed in any assessments, this course provides an excellent round-up of Year 12 ahead of the new academic year.

Suitable for:

  • Year 12 students
  • Students preparing for summer assessments or looking to review content before year 13
  • Students struggling with content (we suggest booking our summer courses instead as content is covered in more depth and over more days)
  • Students working at a grade D or below

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.

How do your online AS Level Physics 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.
