What you need to know and how we support your child
Matric is the Grade 12 year. Learners write either IEB examination papers or the Department of Basic Education NSC papers, depending on the school. The content is related, but the papers are not the same. We recommend a tutor based on your child's subject, level, and goals.
Our tutors specialise in Matric Tutoring and align every session to your child's curriculum and assessment objectives so your child can achieve their best.
Tell us which board and which subjects your child is writing. Tutors then use that board's past papers and marking guidelines.
Assessment includes school-based assessment and the final examination. We guide planning and feedback, but we do not write or complete assessed work for the student.
Tell us whether your child is writing IEB or DBE NSC papers. The content overlaps, but the examination papers do not.
1-on-1 sessions tailored to your child's level and curriculum
Qualified tutors with curriculum and exam-board experience
Flexible scheduling to suit your calendar and timezone
Past papers and exam technique aligned to your child's board
Support for internal assessments and coursework where applicable
If your child understands in class but freezes in exams, you're not alone - and it's fixable with the right tutor matched to their curriculum.

And how working with a private online tutor can help your child avoid them
We practise interrogating the question: identifying key terms, command words, and scope so your child's answer stays on track.
We work on selecting and integrating precise evidence, quotes, or data so your child's arguments are well supported.
We use plans and outlines so your child builds a clear argument. We practise timed essays so structure becomes automatic.
We allocate time per section in past papers and practise under exam conditions so your child learns to pace themselves.
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.
We use mark schemes and example responses so your child sees exactly how marks are awarded and what to include.
Study strategy
A clear path from your syllabus or specification to exam day
Grade 10-12
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
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
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
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.
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.
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.
What your child will achieve
Realistic outcomes when your child commits to the process
