What families say
“We had struggled to find a tutor who could support our child specifically with Cambridge IGCSE Physics exam preparation. Jonathan has been a great fit. He focused on the areas our child was struggling with and spent a lot of time working through past papers, explaining mistakes and showing them how to approach different question types. We have seen a noticeable improvement in their confidence, particularly when working under exam conditions.”
“Joe has been tutoring my child in Combined Science and we have been happy with the support he has provided. He is patient, explains the work clearly and takes the time to go over areas where my child needs additional practice. The lessons have been helpful in reinforcing the schoolwork and preparing for CAPS assessments. Joe has been reliable and professional throughout.”
Is Your Child Struggling with CAPS Grade 9?
If your child is finding CAPS Grade 9 tutoring tough, one-to-one support from a specialist tutor can rebuild confidence before the next assessment or exam.
Parents often tell us:
Your child understands in class but freezes when the exam paper lands on their desk
Syllabus-aligned practice and exam technique - so they perform when it counts.
New concepts go over their head in a busy classroom
1-on-1 explanation at their pace until it clicks.
They get stuck on homework and you can't always help
Weekly support so they build confidence working through problems on their own.
Small gaps from last term are now holding them back
Targeted support to close gaps before they grow - no more falling behind.
Without steady support, they slip further behind each week
Consistent weekly lessons with a specialist who tracks their progress.

Common mistakes
Common Mistakes
And how working with a private online tutor can help your child avoid them
Answering the question you expected rather than the one set.
We practise interrogating the question: identifying key terms, command words, and scope so your child's answer stays on track.
Vague or general answers without specific evidence or examples.
We work on selecting and integrating precise evidence, quotes, or data so your child's arguments are well supported.
Weak structure: no clear introduction, development, or conclusion.
We use plans and outlines so your child builds a clear argument. We practise timed essays so structure becomes automatic.
Poor time management: spending too long on one part and rushing the rest.
We allocate time per section in past papers and practise under exam conditions so your child learns to pace themselves.
In coursework or IAs: unclear methodology or insufficient critical reflection.
We help your child plan methods and reflection so their work meets the criteria. We guide planning and feedback, but we do not write or complete assessed work for the student.
Not reading the mark scheme so your child misses what examiners reward.
We use mark schemes and example responses so your child sees exactly how marks are awarded and what to include.
Study strategy
Study plan and exam strategy for CAPS Grade 9
A clear path from your syllabus or specification to exam day
Grade 10-12
Syllabus and CAPS alignment
Cover the curriculum systematically using CAPS and the IEB NSC Subject Assessment Guidelines. Build strong foundations in core topics so your child can apply knowledge in exams. We use past papers and marking guidelines to show what is expected.
From Grade 11 or early Grade 12
NSC past papers and marking guidelines
Practise with IEB NSC past papers under exam conditions. Use the official marking guidelines (available on the IEB website) to see how marks are awarded. Identify question types and cognitive levels so your child prepares for the full range.
As per school deadlines
School-based assessment (SBA)
Complete SBA tasks with support on planning, structure, and analysis. We guide planning and feedback, but we do not write or complete assessed work for the student.
Months before finals
Final revision and exam readiness
Target weak areas and do full past papers under timed conditions. Focus on time management, question interpretation, and the presentation examiners expect. Avoid cramming; consistent revision over months works best.
Tactics
- Use IEB NSC past papers and marking guidelines from the IEB website (Resources) or your child's school.
- Study in blocks (e.g. 50 minutes) with breaks; tackle harder subjects when you are freshest.
- Create a revision timetable and stick to it; start at least 2-3 months before exams.
- Practise under exam conditions: time limits, no notes, quiet environment.
- Ask for help early; do not leave concept gaps or SBA to the last minute.
Recommended approach
The South African Department of Basic Education and IEB recommend starting exam preparation early, using past papers, and studying in a structured way. Create a timetable and dedicate 3-4 hours daily to revision in the run-up to exams.
Use past papers and marking guidelines so you know the format and how marks are awarded. Study harder subjects first when your child is fresh, and use active techniques (summaries, practice questions) rather than passive reading.
Avoid cramming in the final days; it increases stress and does not build long-term understanding. Our tutors can align this approach to your subjects and help your child target the topics and question types that will make the biggest difference to their results.
