AS Level General Paper is unlike any content-based A Level subject — there's no fixed syllabus of topics to memorise. Instead, it tests how clearly and critically you can think and write about contemporary issues, from science and technology to culture, politics and the environment, using comprehension passages and discursive essays. Students who are used to revising fixed content are often surprised by how much General Paper rewards structured argument, wide reading and precise written English instead. This is exactly where working with a dedicated General Paper tutor makes the biggest difference.

Our General Paper tutors work one-to-one with AS Level students preparing for the Cambridge International specification, building essay-planning technique, comprehension speed and genuine command of current affairs. Lessons are built around your target grade and the university offer you're working towards.
