At Skipton tutors we insure students get the best support with maths, English and science related subjects. This week we are compiling our efforts on GCSE biology revision. Many students thoroughly enjoy Biology but others seem to find it tricky. There’s an abundance of information to memorize but less of the mathematical questions in Biology in contrast to the other sciences. The key to passing GCSE biology is to be well organised, have notes and access to the best resources. At Skipton Tutors we give students the advantage of preparing for their biology exams through the provision of 1-on-1 tuition but also recommending the best GCSE biology revision materials.
There is a magnitude of biology material online and it can be a difficult process to find which ones will be the most beneficial. There are a few factors that can feed into which revisional resources are the best for your studies. To start your learning journey it is best to begin with revising the subject itself, this may consist of working through our revision guide or online revision notes, like those on Maths Made Easy. Once you have a clear picture of a topic, the best way to backup the knowledge is to have a go at practice questions and integrate retrieving the information as this helps to embed the understanding. Once a student has moved through a number of questions and gains a sense of knowledge in a topic it is then time to proceed onto exam style problems where the use of what you’ve been learning is then tested. This is where contextualised questions involving different scenarios occur and you have to work out what the question is really asking and what answer it wants you to provide. The final step of your GCSE biology revision journey is to move onto the biology past papers.
