About General Exam Prep at Dreaming Spires
From time to time, our experienced IGCSE and A-level examiners at Dreaming Spires will run short crammer courses in addition to the longer, more detailed year-long courses that closely align with syllabi published by exam boards.
Year-Long Option: All the English courses have been designed by an examiner to prepare students for English Language and English literature IGCSEs and even A-level, but specifically, Middle Ages Literature covers tasks found on the CAIE 0500/0990 exams, and Renaissance Literature's writing extension teaches how to write in a way that's required for the 0475/0992 exam.
Six-Week Crammer Option: These 1-hour live, online revision sessions teach tips and tricks for tackling the exam via close study of past exam papers, and include a live, invigilated, marked mock. Up to two additional mocks may be offered for revision practice.
