What attendees say
Absolutely great! I knew I was lacking application and evaluation in my papers, however, the workers at the Grade Booster really clearly explained everything for us and now I feel much more confident to go into my exams! The best part about it was how they got everyone involved and made it a positive atmosphere along with the chance to win prizes for correct answers! Amazing.
Student
Excellent provision and information. Sometimes students need someone who is not the teacher to reaffirm advice and content and give some positive momentum - the cinema workshops do this and more!
Head of Business & Economics
A great way to learn for the present media-focused generation. The big screen format makes key points ultra-clear to the audience and the cinema atmosphere seems to encourage much more interaction than in other types of student workshops.
Head of Department
The presenters are engaging, the activities are interactive, and the guidance is outstanding. Our pupils always come away from the day with positive things to say, and their grades have been boosted.
