Eddie Woo records every lesson he teaches and his videos are easy to understand, although his accent is annoying. He has covered pretty much every topic there is to Maths.

BBC Bitesize is a great revision app for phones and has helped dramatically with my revision as well. Covers all GCSE subjects.

Depends if you are doing a modular or linear course personally my teacher said you should spend 5 hours a week revising for each A level if you are doing modular obviously practice work for that topic aswell as work which links other topics if you don’t understand go to your teacher for help if a teacher isn’t willing to help you outside of their class speak to your Head of learning/head of sixth form and ask them to help you personally. You might thinking AS is a waste however it teaches you the fundamentals for the A level exams so don’t waste it.

Edit:Also give your homework 100% effort as it will be marked and can provide useful feedback
