Make This Summer Count: Summer Revision

Summer is just around the corner, and while it is the perfect time for a break from school, it’s also a golden opportunity for students to get ahead with their studies. At Gabbitas, we make sure students make most of their summer break and get a head start for the upcoming academic year. We offer comprehensive subject support covering all the key stages and exam frameworks – from GCSE, A-levels, IB, and Common Entrance Exams like 11+ and 13+, and many more.

How can we support your child? 

Summer revision isn’t just about catching up; it’s about staying ahead. Here is how Gabbitas Tutors can help your child stay on top of their grades, challenge themself with new tasks and prepare for the next school year.

  • Exam Preparation: Our team of tutors focuses on exam techniques, covering past papers, and revising key topic concepts. Our tutors are experienced with various exam boards and can provide targeted preparation to help you excel in your exams.
  • Flexible Learning Options: Summer schedules can be unpredictable, with holidays and other activities. Whether you prefer in-person tutoring, online sessions, or a hybrid approach, our tutors make sure the classes suit your lifestyle and learning style.
  • Progress Tracking and Feedback: Regular assessments and feedback from our tutors help students understand their progress and identify areas that need more attention.

“As an experienced tutor, I love working with Gabbitas as I know my students are not only getting the benefit of my subject expertise, but they are also getting excellent advice on school and university choices. I have taken some of my students through 8+ examinations, then scholarships and GCSE preparation. I get to know my students and their families and can provide support at every step of their educational journey.”

Top Tips For Effective Summer Revision From Our Tutors: 

Create a schedule. For example, keep a reading diary in which you record the books you have read, along with synopses and your personal comments on the topic.

Be organised. Check out the syllabus you are expected to have covered.

Plan. Make sure you know the format of the exams you will sit, along with the dates.

Stay consistent. Practise skills often as it’s easy to forget how to do something that you have learned 6 months ago.

Top Advice for Entrance to Independent School: 

Take advice on the right choice of school based on UKiset, or other exam scores. The top UK independent schools generally require a minimum of 125. Aligning your results with your academic goals is crucial.

Where to start?

The right tutor can help students to stress their strengths in exams, applications and interviews.
