Revision tips

Everyone revises differently but you can try this active revision technique called: look, cover, say, write, check, which essentially meant that you look over the content, cover over it, you say it out loud, you write it down and then you check it.  Writing while revising is very important because it instill in your brain choice and spelling of words.
