How we teach Mathematics

Each topic starts from the idea, then worked examples written step by step, then questions in the style of WJEC A Level Mathematics.

We teach the exact methods the mark scheme rewards and show where method marks are earned even when the final answer slips.

Timed practice on both calculator and non-calculator style papers, so speed and accuracy improve together.

Where students usually lose marks

  • Algebraic manipulation and rearranging
  • Problem-solving questions with several steps
  • Graphs and functions
  • Geometry proofs and reasoning

Questions parents ask

Do you teach the current WJEC A Level Mathematics syllabus?

Yes. Lessons follow the board’s current syllabus (For teaching from 2017). We check the specification before planning a course, and we tell you if anything changes.

How many lessons a week does my child need?

Most students do one or two 60-minute lessons a week. In the months before the exam, many add a second lesson for past-paper practice.

Can you help close to the exam?

Yes. Exam-season courses focus on timed practice, the topics that lose the most marks, and marking every paper like the real exam.
