GCSE tutoring at Cookie Tutoring is one-to-one and online, with tutors who sat the same exams and can teach to your specific board, whether that is AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC or CCEA. Tutors set their own rate from £30 an hour, and the first 15 minutes with any of them is free.
We also build cookie, the revision app, and every student and every tutor here gets it at no extra cost. This is what it has for GCSE to use between lessons.
Two GCSE specifications in the same subject can differ in what is examinable, how questions are worded and how marks are awarded. A student revising the wrong specification loses marks for reasons that have nothing to do with what they know.
Every tutor lists the boards they teach on their profile, and you can filter the list by board before you speak to anyone.
Usually not in explaining the content again. Most students who are struggling have heard the explanation; what is missing is exam technique, which means reading what a question is actually asking, knowing what the mark scheme rewards, and writing enough but not too much.
The second common gap is a foundation from two years earlier. A tutor working one-to-one can find it in a lesson, where a class of thirty cannot.
Every student taught through Cookie Tutoring gets free access to cookie, our study app. Their tutor can set exam-style questions, flashcards, past papers and notes, the marking is examiner-style and instant, and anything the student gets wrong comes back on a spaced-repetition schedule.
Homework set out of a textbook or a worksheet counts too. The student adds the question themselves, by typing it or photographing it, and it is marked and tracked the same way.
The tutor sees the same results, so the next lesson starts from what actually went wrong rather than from what the student remembers going wrong.
Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, from £30 an hour, and you see the exact rate on their profile before you contact anyone. The first 15 minutes is free.
One a week per subject is the usual pattern, moving to two in the term before exams. More than that is rarely the constraint. What a student does between lessons matters more than how many lessons there are.
Year 10 or the start of Year 11 gives enough time to fix foundations rather than only drill technique. Starting after mocks is still worth doing; the work just becomes narrower and more exam-focused.
Often, yes; many tutors list two or three. Each tutor profile shows every subject and board they teach.
AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC, Eduqas and CCEA for GCSE, plus Cambridge International and Pearson Edexcel International for IGCSE. You can filter tutors by board.
Yes, lessons are one-to-one and live. Parents are welcome to sit in. Students under 16 have their lessons booked by a parent, guardian or sponsor; from 16 they can book their own.
We are selective about who teaches here: we look for tutors at top universities, everybody is interviewed by us, and nobody is listed without a criminal record check on file. Lessons run in the browser with live video and a shared whiteboard.Rates start at £30 an hour, the first 15 minutes with any tutor is free, and every student gets cookie's study software at no extra cost.
