**how to revise at home**
Here is a video from Free Science Lessons about how to revise effectively.
Now you are working from home, it is important to regularly revisit what you have learnt. Draw up a schedule or download this one. Students should set aside time every week to review their online lessons and revise what they have learnt. Try some past paper questions from Physics and Maths Tutor to make sure you understand what you have learned. |
