Year 8 Maths and Science Tuition
In Year 8, Maths and Science get harder. New ideas build on Year 7, and gaps that are not fixed now make GCSE much harder later. Our live classes help students understand each topic properly and feel confident in lessons and tests.
What Year 8 students usually learn
Every school teaches topics in its own order. Most schools cover topics like these in Year 8, and we match the class to what the students are doing at school.
Maths
- Algebra: expressions, equations, formulae and sequences
- Fractions, decimals, percentages and powers
- Ratio and proportion, including best-buy problems
- Angles, area, volume and constructions
- Probability and statistics
Science
- Biology: digestion, breathing, photosynthesis and ecosystems
- Chemistry: atoms, elements and compounds, the periodic table, chemical reactions
- Physics: energy, light and sound, electricity and magnetism
- Working scientifically: planning experiments and reading graphs
What your child gains
- Secure understanding of the Year 8 topics

How classes work
- One live class for the year group on Zoom. There is no travelling.
- Maths in every session, with Physics, Chemistry and Biology in rotation, matched to what schools teach.
- Homework and notes on Google Classroom.
- There is no trial class: it is a structured course that builds week by week.
