Exam Preparations tips for GCSE maths

GCSE Maths students take three GCSE maths exams between late May and June, each lasting 1 hour and 30 minutes. These include two calculator papers and one non-calculator paper. The course is entirely exam-based, with no coursework required. For GCSE Maths, you can choose between two types of exams: the foundation paper or the higher paper, depending on your skill level and goals. Although all exam boards grade students equally to ensure fairness, the foundation and higher-tier papers are assessed differently. With a foundation paper, the highest grade you can achieve is a 5. The foundation paper and higher paper from the same exam board share some similarities, but many questions are tailored to match the skill level of the intended audience. The foundation paper focuses on questions suitable for students targeting grades 4 or 5, while the higher paper is designed for those aiming for a grade 5 or above, featuring more challenging question styles. While the GCSE Maths curriculum may seem challenging at first, it is an invaluable opportunity to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. But there’s no need to worry—Tutorful is here to support you with expert tutors and helpful tips and tricks for effective GCSE Maths exam preparation.

Liam W
Liam has been my tutor for almost 3 years now and I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. He has taught me for both GCSE maths and GCSE Further maths in which I achieved 9s in both subjects. He has also taught me A-level maths over the last couple of years, and although I don’t yet have my results, he was a great help nonetheless. What I liked the most about his teaching was that he had a methodical approach to most things but also was willing to explore other avenues in which to complete a problem to accommodate to ways in which I would prefer more. He is also great at the explaining most things which a lot of school teachers struggle to get across properly. I would definitely recommend him as a great tutor for most that are doing their GCSEs or A-levels.

Lewis J
Lewis has contributed to great GCSEs for our son, whilst we are waiting for the results in August, our son already knows he will be getting top marks in the two subjects Lewis is an expert in. We have been incredibly fortunate to have him as a tutor for our son. He has been dynamic, engaged, and consistently reliable. Always punctual and accommodating, he adapted seamlessly to our scheduling needs and tailored lessons to suit both physics and further maths, Lewis has an impressive and varied skill set. His teaching approach kept our son motivated and confident, and the flexibility to switch between subjects made a significant difference in maintaining momentum across both areas. We highly recommend Lewis to any student or parent seeking a knowledgeable, committed, and adaptable tutor. An excellent experience all around!
