Getting to Cambridge: STEP by STEP!

OP

Update:

Okay, so I didn't quite manage to finish off chapter three, given all my procrastination, I'm not surprised. I've only got 3 or 4 pages to go, though. I'll see if I can finish it off tomorrow, but I've got kids coming over for lessons in the afternoon and I was planning on doing a STEP III mock in the morning, so I'll be very drained.

But Sundays are meant to be a day of rest and you know what he's like :no:

Just tie him to a leash outside your house. Knowing him he'll keep occupied doing loci calculations :biggrin:

I can think of a STEP question that's exactly this. :lol:

Btw what motivated you to start tutoring? And what levels do you tutor?

Oh, shush. :lol:

I just tutor a few of my brothers friends so that I've got something else to do with my time and earn a teensy bit of pocket money, it's nothing really major. They're all like year 8/9, I think... twelve/thirteen year olds.

I know how you feel. I woke up early but I didn't really do anything other than a few review exercises. I'm starting to get ever so slightly better at conics so that can't be a bad thing...

Do FP3 June 2012 and tell us how it goes. :smile:

Ah my student bailed today! He has AICT mocks or something. How many days do you need to teach in a week?

That's the one you did, right? I'll do it later, thanks. :smile:

Ah, what level is he at? I was planning on doing only Tuesdays a week, but the kids really like the sessions so they want to do Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays as well. So we're trying out this Monday thing today.

Yep. It's fairly straightforward but I'd like to see how you time on it. I didn't time very well.

He's doing AS Maths and ICT this June. I swear he drops by when he feels like it and then unloads all the weird **** his teacher does on me... I've been trying to get him started on past papers for a while :redface:
