It’s exam season… but not to worry! Our free TikTok textbook is here to help you every step of the way. Over the next 10 weeks, we’ll be posting a series of helpful study videos on our TikTok account to help you smash revision.
Study tips, topic explainers and self-care videos
Watch our expert tutors break down the trickiest GCSE and A-level questions. We used data from Google and our Answers resource centre to find out which topics students look for support with the most – and find the hardest. And with the creativity and subject expertise of our team of tutors, this video series should help you master the toughest parts of your subjects.
They’ll also give you loads of tips on how to answer exam questions (it is a skill!) and how to tackle revision. Because our tutors are students at top unis themselves, they know what it’s like to sit exams–and how to study to get their best grade. They also know how this time of year can be stressful too, so they’ll go over ways you can switch off and just relax.
Here are our tutors and what topics they’ll cover in their video series…
