 My Child Isn’t Doing Well in GCSE Maths — and I’m Worried They Won’t Pass. They Say They’ve Revised by Watching YouTube Videos — But How Can You Learn Maths from a Video? Many teenagers insist they’ve “revised” by watching YouTube tutorials, but GCSE Maths isn’t a spectator sport. It’s procedural — like learning to drive — and real understanding only comes from doing the steps yourself. In this episode, Chris Battle explains why confidence in maths is so easily lost, how small gaps quickly grow into big barriers, and why in-person teaching often rebuilds belief faster than screens ever can. You’ll learn the psychology behind maths anxiety, how to structure effective practice, and practical ways parents can help their child turn passive revision into active progress. Because maths success isn’t about talent or luck — it’s about process, consistency, and the right kind of guidance.
