Here at Bristol Tutor Company we offer Functional Skills tutoring in both maths and English. Functional Skills is a qualification that has been Ofqual approved, it is also equivalent to a GCSE Grade 4/C/PASS meaning it will be treated as such by all employers and universities. This is ideal for those looking to change/start their careers. When looking at booking in for functional skills there are a large number of websites to check through and can seem quite intimidating. We here at Bristol Tutor Company would like to help save you some time by recommending Pass Functional Skills.
If you haven’t studied or been in an environment requiring functional skills knowledge for a while you may find it difficult to achieve passing the exam. We help learners revise in preparation for their English and maths functional skills exams by offering quality local tutors that have experience within these subjects. They will offer helpful information to help you be ready for when the exam date arrives. Due to coronavirus preventative measures most of these functional skills services take place online. This however does not mean the exam will be any easier as exam conditions are still to be maintained, the only real difference being you can relax a lot more within the comfort of your own home instead of being cooped up at a desk in a hall.
Your tutor will help you by offering tips and resources such as past papers that you can also access online at any time. However when accessing these please ensure to only use the past exam papers from 2019 onward as this was the time when the new specifications came into effect. Therefore any exam papers prior to 2019 are much less relevant and may contain questions that are no longer in the exam. The different exam boards all offer their own past papers but as they all use the same government curriculum, there is little to no difference between them. These different exam boards consist of: City & guilds, OpenAwards, AQA, Pearson Edexcel and more. Most providers are partnered with at least one of these exam boards.
