An AI tutor for GCSE revision and homework
TutorAura · Updated
GCSEs cover a lot of content in a lot of subjects, and the students who do best practise answering exam-style questions and get feedback on them. TutorAura's AI tutor helps GCSE students (years 10 and 11) in every subject: it quizzes you on what you need to know, explains what you don't understand, gives feedback on longer answers, and helps you plan your revision.
For GCSE Maths there's a structured course: an original question bank by topic, a diagnostic, a study plan and timed mock papers with mark schemes.
Key takeaways
- Revision quizzes and explanations in every GCSE subject.
- Feedback on longer answers and essay plans, without writing them for you.
- GCSE Maths: topic practice, a diagnostic, a study plan and timed mock papers.
- Free revision timetable generator and maths calculators that show their working.
How GCSE students use it
- Revising a topic: "Quiz me on the causes of the First World War" or "Test me on cell transport."
- Understanding something: "I don't get moles" or "Explain how a bill becomes law in simple words."
- Exam technique: practise a 6-mark science question and get feedback on what's missing.
- English and humanities: plan an essay and get comments on your draft.
- Maths: work through a problem on the whiteboard; the tutor finds the step that went wrong.
GCSE Maths, in more depth
The GCSE Maths pathway includes an original question bank for selected topics, a diagnostic that finds your weak topics, a study plan built from it, and timed mock papers in the style of Paper 1 (non-calculator) and Paper 2 (calculator), marked with a mark scheme. You can also try two free GCSE Maths mock papers without signing up.
These are original materials, not official past papers, and we don't claim full coverage of any specification. Use your exam board's past papers too.
Revision that works
The most effective revision is testing yourself and spacing it out over weeks, not rereading notes (Dunlosky et al., 2013, summarised in our active recall guide). The tutor is built for this: it quizzes you, comes back to what you got wrong, and keeps notes on what you find hard.

Honest limits
The tutor doesn't know your exam board's exact specification unless you tell it, and like any AI it can make mistakes, so check key facts against your notes and textbook. It's a revision partner, not a replacement for your teachers.
