STUDY GUIDE
Build your study week in 30 seconds
Tell us when your classes are and how much time you have. You get a week that turns every lesson into marks: watch, recall, practise, return.
Your week

Mixed revision (all chapters so far)
This is one week. Repeat it every week.
The days stay the same; only the lesson changes.
Week 2 →
Lesson 5 the same way, and Return goes back to Lesson 4.
Every week after →
Same days, next lesson. Return always picks up last week.
Why this order works
Short returns help you remember the lesson. Recall first, practise next, then revisit what you found difficult.

Illustration of the forgetting curve, not measured Tabashera data.The four moves
Watch
in classCome in with one question. Leave with the minute you got lost.
Try: Pause after each worked example and do the next step yourself.
On Tabashera: Each lesson is split into short parts, so you can jump straight back to the one you didn't get.
Recall
10 minClose the notes. Pull the ideas out of your head first.
Try: Write the three main ideas from memory, then check.
On Tabashera: Type or say a question about the lesson and get an answer based on your teacher's explanation.
Practise
day 2Answer first, check after. Exams don't show the solution.
Try: Do the assignment on your own before checking your notes or the lesson.
On Tabashera: After each quiz, see every question you got wrong, grouped by topic, so you know what to practise.
Return
day 7Go back before you forget, not after.
Try: Solve two questions on last week's weakest topic.
On Tabashera: My results shows your score in each chapter and points you to the one to go back to.
Got a question wrong?
Pick what happened. The fix is different for each.
“I didn't know where to start”
- Find the lesson section that covers it and rewatch only that part.
- Redo the worked example with the answer covered.
- Try one new question of the same type tomorrow.
“I knew how, but the answer came out wrong”
- Redo it slowly, writing every step on its own line.
- Check units, signs and decimal places at the end.
- Keep a list of your repeat slips and read it before quizzes.
“I answered a different question”
- Underline what is given and circle what is asked.
- Rewrite the question in your own words before starting.
- Check your final answer against the circled part.
Your tutor's plan comes first.
Use this week around their lessons and deadlines. Start small and keep it going; a short loop you actually do beats a long plan you skip.
