Real, board-specific feedback every month so improvement is measurable, not guessed at.

Grade 9 Exam Technique

Targeted teaching of analysis, evaluation and application — the skills that separate a 7 from a 9.

Long-Answer Question Support

Dedicated coaching on 6, 9 and extended-response questions — structure, evidence, evaluation and the language examiners reward.

Homework and Independent Tasks

Builds the consistent study habits that produce top GCSE Geography grades.

Recorded Lessons

Students can revisit difficult topics, consolidate before assessments and never miss content.

Small Group Teaching

Cohorts stay under ten so students can ask questions and receive individual support.

Frequently Asked Questions

GCSE Geography Tutor FAQs — Everything Parents Ask

Who is the GCSE Geography Blueprint suitable for?

Year 9, 10 and 11 students who are serious about Geography and want a structured route to Grades 7, 8 or 9. Suitable for students rebuilding confidence and high achievers pushing for a Grade 9.

Which year groups can join?

Year 9 (early advantage), Year 10 (building foundations) and Year 11 (full exam preparation).

How many students are in each class?

Cohorts are kept under ten students. Small enough that every student gets individual support and feedback.

When are lessons held?

Lessons are typically held between 6 pm and 8 pm on weekday evenings, giving students time after school.

Are lessons live or recorded?

All lessons are live and interactive. Recordings are provided so students can revisit difficult topics and revise before assessments.

How much homework is set?

Targeted weekly tasks that consolidate the lesson and develop exam technique — meaningful, not excessive.

How are assessments marked?

Monthly assessments are marked by senior examiners against the exact mark schemes used by AQA, Edexcel or OCR.

How does feedback work?

Students receive personalised written feedback identifying the specific changes that will move their grade upwards.

Can students join after September?

Yes — students can join during the year subject to cohort availability. We will discuss fit on the Discovery Call.

Which exam boards do you teach?

All major UK and international specifications: AQA, Edexcel A, Edexcel B, OCR A, OCR B, Eduqas A & B, WJEC, Cambridge IGCSE (CIE) and Edexcel IGCSE. Teaching is tailored to each specification — command words, mark schemes, fieldwork and question styles all differ.

How much independent study is expected?

Around two to four hours per week outside lessons — case study consolidation, practice questions and reading.

Can high-achieving students join?

Absolutely. The Blueprint is designed to take strong students to a Grade 9, not just to lift weaker grades.

Can students currently struggling join?

Yes. Many students join at Grade 4 or 5 and build steadily to a 7, 8 or 9 across the year.

How do parents stay updated?

Parents receive regular progress updates and have a direct line of communication with the team.

What technology is required?

A laptop or tablet, a stable internet connection, a notebook and a quiet space to work.

What happens after I book?

You receive an immediate confirmation and a short pre-call form to help us prepare for the conversation.

How does the Discovery Call work?

A 30-minute conversation with our team to understand your child's position, identify what is holding back top marks and design a personalised roadmap.

Take The First Step

Your Child's GCSE Geography JourneyStarts With One Conversation.

The Discovery Call is designed to provide complete clarity about where your child is now, where they want to be and the most effective route to getting there.

If the GCSE Geography Blueprint is the right fit, we'll explain exactly how it works. If it isn't, you'll still leave with a clear action plan.

Places are intentionally limited — cohorts remain small to maximise feedback and interaction.
