Description

This is a course for anyone thinking of doing A-Level maths. With 60+ videos and 40+ quizzes, we will go through all the GCSE topics that are needed most at A-Level, taking each a little further than you will have gone before and stepping into A-Level territory along the way.I created this course especially for all the students who had their GCSE's cancelled this year, as you guys missed out on so much education and might be feeling under-prepared for your A-Levels. This is the course that will get you where you need to be to begin the A-Level course with confidence.The topics covered are:Straight linesQuadraticsEquations and InequalitiesGraphsTrigonometryCalculator UseLogarithmsAlong with the 60+ video lectures and 40+ quizzes to check your understanding, there is also a section on calculator use and a chapter at the end where we explore logarithms - a brand new topic from the A-level.
