Third and Fourth Level (S1, S2, S3)

Our sessions are designed to help students master the expectations of the Third and Fourth Levels — supporting their growth in subject understanding and learning skills as they move toward the senior phase of schooling.

1. Advanced Reading and Writing

   We support learners in building critical reading skills, identifying themes, analysing language, and structuring thoughtful responses. Writing sessions include persuasive essays, reports, creative storytelling, and formal writing techniques.

2. Mathematics and Problem Solving

   Tutoring covers key numeracy areas such as percentages, algebra, equations, ratios, and problem-solving techniques. We also guide learners through interpreting data, working with graphs, and solving multi-step word problems.

3. Science Foundations

   From biology and chemistry to physics basics, we help learners understand core scientific principles, conduct virtual experiments, and apply theory to real-world situations.

4. Study Skills and Independent Learning

   We teach learners how to organise notes, revise effectively, and stay on top of assignments. These skills lay the foundation for future success in National 4 and 5 qualifications.

5. Critical Thinking and Communication

   We encourage discussion, reasoning, and confident communication — essential for success in both exams and future academic work.

6. Personalised Help with School Assignments

   Students can bring current classwork or homework to sessions, and we’ll guide them through understanding instructions, tackling tasks, and checking work for accuracy.

The transition to the senior phase of secondary school can be daunting. At Jaya’s Academy, we aim to make that shift smoother by reinforcing essential skills and boosting self-belief.

Our tutors support learners in developing the academic maturity, structured thinking, and clarity they need to succeed as they approach National qualifications. We help them identify their strengths, tackle weaknesses, and stay engaged in their learning.

The skills developed during the Third and Fourth Levels provide a strong base for future SQA success. Whether your child is headed for National 4s, 5s, or beyond, building a strong academic foundation now is key.

At Jaya’s Academy, we’re committed to helping students gain the knowledge, strategies, and mindset they need for long-term achievement.
