One possible route into an exam answer
Read
Find the task
Identify the command word and the part of the text the question refers to. Check meaning before planning a response.
Plan
Say the idea first
Discuss a possible answer, choose supporting evidence and arrange a few key words in a workable order.
Write
Develop and review
Write a short response, then check one agreed priority. Add further demands as the process becomes more secure.
Separate the skills before bringing them together
| Focus | A useful practice task |
|---|---|
| Understanding a text | Summarise one paragraph in your own words. |
| Explaining evidence | Choose a short quotation and explain what it suggests. |
| Controlling a sentence | Express one complete idea clearly before varying the structure. |
| Checking accuracy | Review a small, agreed set of spelling or punctuation patterns. |
Keep the ideas visible
Avoid letting every discussion become a spelling test. A tutor can distinguish the quality of an interpretation from the accuracy of its written expression, then give both the attention they need.
Frequently asked questions
Can tutoring support exam preparation as well as reading?
Yes. Share the exam board and a marked response. Lessons can combine reading strategies with planning, writing and practice for that board’s question styles.
Will a tutor arrange extra time or other exam support?
No tutor can promise access arrangements. Discuss assessment and permitted support with the school or examination centre. Practise in ways consistent with the arrangements they confirm.
How do we check a tutor’s dyslexia experience?
Ask about their training and the learners they have supported. The listing is based on reported experience. Use the free 15-minute introduction to discuss specific needs and a realistic first goal.
