With the first A Level and GCSE exams now upon us, the atmosphere at BA English Tuition is electric. Our tutees have been working tirelessly and are raring to go! Now is the time to channel that hard work into focused, confident exam performances.

Looking After Your Mental Health During Exams

We understand that exam season can be stressful. If you're feeling overwhelmed, remember you're not alone. Here are some organisations that offer support:

Remember, taking care of your mental health is just as important as your academic preparation.

Upcoming Mastery Webinar: Power & Conflict Poetry

Our final mastery webinar, Mastering AQA Poetry (Power & Conflict) is scheduled for Sunday 18th May at 6.30pm. This session is strategically timed to provide you with last-minute insights before the English Literature Paper 2 exam on Tuesday 20th May.

We'll delve into key themes and provide strategies to tackle the poetry section effectively.

If there are specific poems you'd like us to focus on, please email your requests to info@ba-english-tuition.com.

Life Outside the Books

Despite the busy exam season, we've managed to enjoy some family time. Arlo had his first experience of the Bel-sit restaurant in Woodford and like us, he couldn't get enough of that garlic bread! Over the bank holiday weekend, we balanced sessions with some relaxation, with Bradley's spirits lifted by the new TV show Your Friends and Neighbours (Apple TV) even though the Arsenal result on Wednesday left much to be desired. For now, Bradley, Jemma and Arlo have everything crossed in wishing all exam year tutees the very best of luck.

 

We know that you will all stay focused and will stay BA...Tuition!
