Tips for improving your maths and physics 

If you are studying maths and physics at school and are struggling to keep up with the lessons or achieve the grade you want, here are some handy tips to help you study:

• Study regularly: Leaving your studying until a few weeks before your exam is ineffective and stressful. It is also very likely that anything you do study during this time will not become part of your long-term memory. Therefore it is important that you start at the beginning of the school year and study as you learn in class. Create a timetable where you dedicate a few hours of independent study a week to maths and physics. You should do this on top of your private tuition to make sure you consolidate what you have learnt.
• Study technique: You can ask your maths and physics tutor to help you identify a technique that works for you. You can also try out famous study techniques by yourself like the pomodoro technique and see if it improves your study sessions.
• Memorise the basics: Having the first 20 times tables memorised will help you solve problems faster. You can also memorise common physics equations to make sure you can solve things quickly during an exam. 
• Practise mental maths: Practice makes perfect. During your study time make sure you dedicate some of that time to improving your mental maths, you can also incorporate this into your everyday life by not relying on calculators for simple calculations. 
• Take notes: Make sure you take good and coherent notes throughout the school year- both at school and during private tuition. This will make it easier for you to study when it comes to exams. 
• Ask your tutor: If you are struggling with a certain topic, ask your maths and physics tutor to help you. Private tutors are there to help you conquer your weaknesses in a subject and resolve your doubts.
• Use online resources: The internet is a vast resource which can be used to help you practise maths and physics. Websites like BBC Bitesize and Quizlet are good resources to help you study for exams.
