OAKBURY TUITION
Designed for students who are entering their first year of GCSE / IGCSE in September 2022, the course focuses on key skills such as analytical writing, PEEL paragraphing and essay structuring. Time permitting, we will also touch on fiction, non-fiction and transactional writing.

Students will leave with a clear understanding of what their specific course requires and how they can work towards attaining the highest grades for their examination board.
​
- The class will meet 2 times a week for 45 minute sessions
- Recommended reading lists will be provided to suit readers of all levels
​
​
​
These courses are for students who have completed their first year of GCSE / IGCSE and are looking to consolidate their key skills and revise core content of the exam. ​
​
Each intensive course or session will address a specific skill or area of the examination so that students can target their weakest elements and pull their grade up to the highest levels.
​
The 2023 Language course will start in September 2022. Lessons take place on Wednesday afternoons. Contact us for more information about enrolling.

A note on coursework:
We are more than happy to aid students in the completion of coursework, but the help given will always have to follow the guidelines of the exam board to ensure that the work submitted is entirely that of the student and is academically honest.
