I like that it starts fairly basic, then looking at the course content I can see that it descends from basics in revision to calculus... Looks good so far.

By Liya Khongbantabam on 2/20/2023

The explanations are well said and thoroughly explained. But sometimes I have a hard time keeping up and often new terms appear out of nowhere and I can't seem to keep up with them.

By Oung Oung on 7/11/2022

This course is amazing , I have learned a lot from this course ,it does help to have additional resources and to practice more. But overall this course has incredible value. I highly recommend this. However logarithms and trigonometry could be added to it.Other than it.Amazing course , and an amazing instructor.

By Joanne Tiu on 5/1/2021

I learned something new which improved my basic understanding of integers and helped a lot with solving integer problems quickly and correctly.

By Hamish on 4/19/2020

I am finding this an invaluable resource to improving my maths tutoring skills. The approach is very through; Ruchi leaves no stone unturned ... and I feel much better prepared.

By Rena Brown on 1/10/2020

Yes, so very clear and understandable so far. I have just started, but I am so so happy that I don't have to try and teach myself anymore which is what I was doing! I have already done A-level but years ago, so this is a great way to get back on track. The fact that the course revises the basics is essential and that is where I am at the moment.

By Shaikh Muhammad on 11/23/2019

What an amazing course and instructor. Upon completing the entire course, I feel satisfied and glad. At first, I was sceptical of whether this course was right for me or not, and if it would help me accomplish what I intended to aim for. Ms.Ruchi hastened to response to my queries and doubts. Moreover, she updated and modified the course thoroughly to provide a seamless experience. In a nutshell, she is a genuine online teacher who cares about her student's response and feedback. This course is an excellent choice for learning Pure Mathematics 1 concepts and for putting them to use through practice problems and past paper problems (with solutions), which are provided in the course. In general, this course is an archetype of what online courses should provide in terms of quality learning and not wasting precious time of students with redundant and incomplete content. I thank Ms.Ruchi for putting in the hard work and effort in making this course.

By Carolyn Steel on 7/10/2019

Totally not what I was expecting. Not worth the money and very hard to understand what she is saying with her accent.

By Vedant on 4/22/2019

This course is really good especially binomial, differentiation, and geometry lessons of this course can really help the beginners. The best part of the course is the Essential Revision where you can learn most of the important things again.

By Abdullah-Al- Mamun on 11/10/2018

I need to improve my skills about A.P and G.P and the instructor gave a nice and easy method that helps me a lot. So, I am recommended this course who wanted to brush up their skills for the exam and as well as some other issues. Nice, short and easy method to understand. Thanks for the great course.
