C11 REVISION TRAINING

C11 MADE TRAINING

Everyone knows that to get the best possible marks in your exams, you will need to remember what you’ve learnt – and to remember what you’ve learnt, you will need to revise. Revising for an exam can sometimes be a challenge, so inviting our C11s to attend revision training made the whole process easier and enjoyable with the proper revision techniques! A revision workshop delivered by the fantastic ‘MADE For Education’ team. The day enables the learners to try a variety of techniques in preparation for their upcoming mocks/final GCSE exams. The sessions are designed to increase motivation and use spaced learning strategies to beat procrastination, increase productivity and enable knowledge mastery. This training allowed our C11 learners to:

• Identify strengths and weaknesses and prioritise areas for improvement • Improve memory skills • Create effective revision resources • Structure your time and work efficiently • Experiment with the techniques and practise those that really work for you.

“Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.” Thomas A. Edison

Thomas Edison, known best for his invention of the incandescent light bulb, certainly knew failure in his life. His teachers said he was stupid. He was fired from his first two means of employment for being “unproductive.” He tried over 1,000 times to get the light bulb right.

But try, he did. And, as we know and can appreciate, he succeeded.

The next time you’re tempted to give up on getting that score you really want, take your motivation from Thomas Edison.
