For over 20 years Duff Miller College has hosted Easter Revision courses in a wide range of A-level and GCSE subjects, helping thousands of students prepare for their examinations.
Easter is a crucial period for many students. It is at this time, with examinations in sight, that they often need the most support; and it is an Easter Revision course that helps to give students an improved subject knowledge and the confidence that they need to achieve their full academic potential in the ensuing summer examinations. The Duff Miller Easter Revision course provides a systematic approach to revision which, in turn, gives students the motivation and support that they need.
The main emphasis of Duff Miller's Easter revision course is to enhance and reinforce knowledge of key topics, through extensive examination practice and analysis of past examination material. We provide the highest quality of teaching; teachers are experts in their subject areas and highly qualified.
In addition, many of our tutors are A-level and GCSE board examiners and are thus able to provide students with a unique insight into examination technique. We keep our study group size to a minimum (the average class is six students), and this enables us to make full assessment of each student’s knowledge and under- standing and ensures that teaching suits the needs of each individual.
Duff Miller College guides and motivates students throughout Easter Revision to continue the process of acquiring improved subject knowledge and help them to plan their own revision programmes for the summer. Full A-level revision courses run for the duration of the whole week, AS and A2 level for two and a half a days and GCSE revision courses run in either the afternoons or mornings for the whole week. It is possible to take two GCSE subjects in any one week with the exception of combined science, which is a full week course
The Objectives
Duff Miller Easter Revision courses are designed to enhance a student’s performance by focusing on five key aspects of exam preparation:
• Consolidating knowledge and understanding • Planning a successful approach to revision • Developing and sustaining confidence • Employing effective examination technique • Working out a personal revision programme for the run-up to the exams
By a combination of these means, our courses aim to renew the student’s enthusiasm for the task ahead and to bolster the student’s confidence.
