We booked your courses for my 14 year old daughter and we are all highly surprised about the great support and also about the results! Congratulations to your big work! We will definitely book more and also when time comes for our younger daughter!
We have a really really good private school here in Germany with very engaged teachers but your system is so great what we never expected. Also our daughter already was a good student, but she now learns much more effective and is the best student in the courses we booked in her class! This is not just advertising that it is possible to reach an A+...it is reality! Thank you for that!

Confidence has been instilled outside normal classroom settings
I am writing to sincerely express my gratitude for the wonderful job that you TEAM are doing to ensure OUR children perform well in their exams. From the bottom of my heart, I am truly grateful. What I am grateful about is that this exercise has boosted his confidence to a level I had not seen before in the subjects that he took his revision in. Grades may say otherwise but for me that confidence has been instilled outside his usual classroom setting.
To any parents considering registering their children for this revision, I can attest that this revision is worth it not only to make the children get good grades but to also re-assure them that they just need the confidence to believe in themselves.
With many thanks,

Extremely well organised, intensive, focused and importantly, time management
While the program was intensive and focused on the finer aspects of language skills, I firmly believe that it has also taught him some very important life skills - the first and foremost being time management.
Advance planning and a workable schedule for the duration of the course made the target achievable in a very comfortable manner. At no point of time did he feel as if he was rushed, this is in addition to being in the school basketball team , keyboard player in the band and other extracurricular activities. I will not hesitate to recommend these revision classes to my friends. Continue the good work, IGCSE Team.

My son achieved a Grade A in his AL exam!
Skolatis is the best online tutoring school! The tuition team puts in tremendous effort to support their students. My son, an international student from Hong Kong, used their resources two years ago and successfully passed his English IGCSE. Last year, he took the newly offered Biology AL course and achieved a Grade A in his AL exam this summer! Now, he is on the path to his ideal university, and we are immensely grateful for all that Skolatis has done. They are truly wonderful people, from customer service to the tutors, and we can't thank them enough!

Hi, how can I solve math problems faster under timed conditions? I tend to hesitate and make careless mistakes, any tips?
Thanks!
Hello Hanah!
It’s great to hear from you again.
Our advice is to practice lots of past exam papers. Practice gives you familiarity and speed.
Set your working out clearly so that it is easy to follow. This makes it easier to track what you have done and makes checking back through your work easier.
We hope these tips help. Good luck!
Hi,
Looking through, Paper 2 (Extended), May/June 2021 (0580) Mark scheme.
For (question 8) I obtained 13/24 as the answer which is correct, however, the mark scheme says I should perform the correct method to find the common denominator, I found 33/24 and 20/24, but why have they included an additional pair of fractions : 9/24 and 4/24?
I just want to know, as my workings will determine the marks as well.
Thanks so much!
Hi Hanah,
Our subject matter experts will answer your questions during the Free Lessons and Q&A sessions.
For 1-on-1 attention and step-by-step solution on how to score A*, kindly check out our Revision Courses. Please visit our Revision Course page for more details: https://skolatis.com/revision-courses/

Hi, when are the free q & a sessions? when can I post my questions?
Hi Hanah,
It’s nice seeing you here again.
You may now post your questions here in the comment section and wait for our subject matter expert to reply.
Some reminders. If your question is taken from past exam papers, please indicate where it is taken from the exam year, paper and variant.
Thanks!
Thanks!
We’re happy to help, Hanah.
We look forward to answering your questions.
Hi,
Could please explain to me how to work out this question?
It’s in :
MATHEMATICS 0580/21
Paper 2 (Extended) May/June 2021, Question 5, a) and b).
What does the numbers in parenthesis mean?
They don’t have a ( / )as well as a numerator and denominator which means they are not fractions, so how should I add/multiply them?
Here is the paper: https://www.cambridgeinternational.org/Images/569924-june-2021-question-paper-21.pdf
Thanks.

Hi, I am in Sri Lanka and I want to know if I can do Mathamatics 0508 exam on May/November? Is it possible?
Hi Hanah,
The syllabus code of Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics is 0580. Please be careful with the subject code as you might be registered to Arabic – First Language, which has the syllabus code 0508.
Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics (0580) is available in both June and November exam series. You can decide when to sit for the exams if you are a private candidate. If you are a schooled candidate, please confirm with your school.
We hope this helps. Thank you.
Oh no! Thanks for the reminder, I often get confused with the syllabus code 0580 and 0508!
Thanks for the information!
I find it really comfortable to ask these questions from you all and appreciate your swiftness.
Hello Hana,
You’re most welcome.
If you ever need help with the syllabus code, you may check it here: https://skolatis.com/cambridge-igcse-subjects-syllabuses/
Hi,
Any advises on how should I excel in 0508 mathematics, I fairly know the topic questions in the syllabus, however, how should I gain confidence on implementing those topics to Paper 2 and 4?
Also, I have approximately 4 months for my IGCSE exam, and I have been able to complete only half of the syllabus due to personal reasons, do you have any fast – track tips for me to finish the syllabus + practise past papers + revise for the exam?
Thank you so much.
Hi Hanah,
Thank you for checking out Skolatis.
The key to getting good grades, especially for Mathematics, is to practice past exam papers.
Aside from familiarising yourself with the kinds of questions you can expect on exams, doing past exam papers will help you learn how to manage your time wisely during exams.
We suggest you minimise your reference checks when working on past exam papers. Try solving a problem with the formula without looking it up. You MUST do this as many times as you can. You can remember the formulas/key equations better when you repeat this step.
Furthermore, during revision, you will see what areas you need to improve and what questions you have trouble dealing with. When you know this, you can find confidence in areas you are strong in and learn to work on areas you still need to improve.
You might be interested in our single payment revision courses to help you revise. You can access all the lessons and practices at once for three months. It also includes unlimited Q&A sessions with our subject matter experts, and selected Exam Model Answers are provided free of charge.
Please kindly check our single payment revision course page for more details here: https://skolatis.com/single-payment-courses/
We hope you find our tips helpful. If you need further assistance, please feel free to write to us again.
Thank you, and good luck!
Thank you so much, I will check out the revision courses as well!
Hi Hanah,
We’re happy to help.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need assistance with our revision courses. Thanks.
Where can I get the latest CIE past papers from?
Hi Hanah,

Hi!
Kindly help me with Question 3d from Paper 42, May/June, 2010 (Syllabus Code 0580).
Firstly, what does the question mean exactly?
Secondly, kindly explain the answer as mentioned in the marking scheme.
Thank you!
Hello Sahlarasul,
Thanks for writing to us!
Here we have to understand the real life scenario of the situation given in the question. Before arriving at 2, we do not know how may times this will spin without stopping at number 2. So we can take the number of total times as “n”. We can take the probability of arriving at 2 as, 2/6 by looking at the spinner. The probability of the number not arriving at 2 is 4/6. Therefore we can write the equation as,
(4/6)^(n-1) x (2/6) = 16/243. [Arriving at 2 in ‘n‘ th time – 2/6. (n-1) times is for the probability that does not arrive at 2.]
When solved, n becomes equal to 5. Therefore the answer is 5.
Hope this helps! We are here for you.
Best Regards,
Mathematics Department
Thank you so much for all your help!

could you please tell me how to find the centre in rotation and enlargement
Hi Saanvi,
To find the Centre of enlargement, draw lines through the corresponding vertices of the two shapes. And these lines will intersect at the Centre of enlargement.
And to find the Centre of rotation, draw lines through the corresponding vertices of the two shapes. (Drawing only two lines will be enough for a triangle) And then, draw the perpendicular bisector of each line. And finally you will get the Centre of rotation, where these bisectors meet each other. (the point of intersection)
Hope this will help. We are here for you!
