Train strategy, speed and decision-making.

UCAT Preparation

UCAT preparation is taught as a performance skill: students learn a repeatable approach for each section, practice under time pressure and use their results to target the areas that will make the biggest difference.

Parent progress tracking

See what your child is learning — and exactly where they need support.

Parents will have access to a secure progress portal, giving you a clear lesson-by-lesson view of your child’s tuition. After each session, the tutor records what was covered, progress made, strengths, weak points and the next areas to focus on.

How we teach UCAT

We establish a baseline using timed questions and identify whether the main issue is strategy, accuracy, pacing or confidence.
Each section is taught with practical methods for recognising question types, eliminating options and managing time.
Students practice in short timed sets before moving to full section conditions, so speed is built without sacrificing accuracy.
Performance is reviewed using error patterns so future practice is targeted rather than random.

What we want to help with

Developing reliable methods for each UCAT section.
Improving speed, accuracy and time allocation.
Knowing when to skip, guess and return to a question.
Reducing avoidable errors caused by pressure or overthinking.
Building a realistic practice schedule and learning how to review mocks productively.

Progress tracking between sessions

Tutors keep track of section performance, recurring errors and weaker question types so each session builds on the last.
Areas that remain weak are deliberately revisited in later sessions through timed retrieval and targeted practice rather than being treated as finished after one lesson.

What a session looks like

A typical UCAT session combines strategy teaching, live timed practice and performance review. The tutor explains not only which answer is correct, but why a particular approach is faster or more reliable under exam conditions.

Quality & safeguarding: all tutors are DBS checked and safeguarding trained. With student consent, sessions may be recorded for quality assurance so teaching standards can be reviewed and maintained.

How the parent progress portal works

A clear record of each lesson, not just a general progress update.

Once your child begins tuition, parents can be given access to the secure progress portal used by Trojan Tutoring. The portal acts as one place to follow the tuition taking place between lessons.

After the lesson, the tutor records the session. This includes the main topics covered, what the student understood well and any areas where they struggled.
Weak points are identified and carried forward. If a topic is not yet secure, it is recorded so the next tutor session can revisit it through recap, retrieval questions or further exam practice.
Parents can follow the history over time. Rather than relying on occasional verbal updates, you can see what has been taught from lesson to lesson and how previously identified weaknesses are developing.
Next steps stay visible. The tutor can use the previous lesson record to plan what should be reinforced, practiced or progressed next.

Important: The portal is used to organise and share the information. Your Trojan tutor is the person who assesses the student’s strengths, identifies weak points and decides what needs to be revisited.
