Private tutoring

Private tutoring in Terminale: when to start and how to organise the year

In Terminale (the final year of lycée), private tutoring is effective when it targets a specific difficulty (a specialism, Philosophy, the Grand oral). Start in September for a gap identified in Première, or after the first assessments if the level is uncertain. One session a week is often enough for a targeted need, avoiding overloading an already busy timetable.

Methods and revision

Active recall: the revision method that makes the brain retrieve information

Active recall means retrieving information from memory, without looking at your notes, and then checking your answers. It is a more effective method than simple rereading for long-term memorisation. To use it well, you need to space out recall sessions and use your mistakes to target the gaps.

Methods and revision

Flashcards: how to create and use them without wasting time

A flashcard is useful when it asks a precise question, when the student looks for the answer before checking it and when the cards are reviewed at spaced intervals. Stick to one idea per card and vary the types: definitions, distinctions, examples and common mistakes. For complex skills, flashcards remain a complement to practice, not a substitute for it.
