In this course, I take you through each topic of your A Level Mathematics syllabus (9709) Mechanics section, clearly explaining the core concepts you are required to master. For each core concept, I share the technique required to solve related problems with the use of past exam questions. This approach will give you the requisite skills needed to tackle Mechanics problems with ease and confidence and eventually lead you to acing your final exams.
The course consists of approximately 9 hours of video content. However, the time you will take to finish the course will depend on the amount of time you will dedicate to working on the content. If you set for yourself a fixed learning schedule, say 2 hours of study per week, you should be able to go through the whole course in a month.
If you thoroughly go through this course watching all the tutorials, taking notes, attempting given problems and following up with solutions, you will be set for exam success. When you are finished with the course, you might want to do a lot of past paper revision. You will find my paper walkthrough videos on my Youtube channel or in the Community.
