Lesson Flow
From Confusion To Calm, One Lesson At A Time.
Our tutors build accounting from first principles — from the accounting equation and double-entry through to full sets of final accounts — so students can both prepare accurate statements and analyse them for the extended questions.
Step 1
Pinpoint the gaps
We start with recent marks, confidence blockers, and the exact exam board so sessions feel personal from lesson one.
Step 2
Teach the mark scheme
Tutors connect concepts to examiner language, worked examples, and the habits that turn knowledge into marks.
Step 3
Track the lift
Parents see what changed after each session: topics covered, next steps, and the grade trajectory we are building toward.
What we cover
A Syllabus Map Students Can Actually Follow.
Break the specification into manageable topics, then build confidence from the first concept to exam-ready application.
01
The Accounting Equation & Double Entry
Start hereAssets, liabilities and owner's equity, the dual effect of every transaction, and posting debits and credits to ledger accounts — the foundation the whole syllabus is built on.
02
Books of Prime Entry & Ledgers
The sales, purchases and returns journals, the cash book and petty cash book, and dividing the ledger into sales, purchases and nominal sections with correct posting.
03
The Trial Balance & Correction of Errors
Balancing accounts, extracting a trial balance, the errors it does and does not reveal, the suspense account, and using journal entries to correct mistakes.
04
Bank Reconciliation & Control Accounts
Updating the cash book, preparing bank reconciliation statements, and constructing sales ledger and purchases ledger control accounts to verify the ledgers.
05
Adjustments to Final Accounts
Accruals and prepayments, depreciation (straight-line and reducing-balance), irrecoverable debts and provisions for doubtful debts, applied through the matching principle.
06
Final Accounts of Sole Traders
Preparing income statements and statements of financial position, distinguishing capital and revenue expenditure, and dealing with incomplete records.
07
Accounts of Other Organisations
Partnership accounts (appropriation and current accounts), limited company accounts, manufacturing accounts, and the receipts and payments and income and expenditure accounts of clubs.
08
Analysis & Interpretation
Calculating and interpreting profitability and liquidity ratios such as gross margin, mark-up, current and quick ratios, and evaluating performance for the extended questions.

Common Blockers
Where Students Struggle And How We Fix It.
1Getting double-entry the right way round+
We drill the debit and credit rules until they are automatic, using a consistent 'give and receive' method. Once students can post any transaction confidently, ledgers, trial balances and control accounts all fall into place.
2Adjustments in the final accounts+
Accruals, prepayments, depreciation and provisions are where marks are lost. We teach a fixed sequence for handling each adjustment and where it appears in both the income statement and the statement of financial position, so nothing is missed under exam pressure.
3Ratio analysis and written evaluation+
The higher-mark questions ask students to calculate ratios and then comment. We provide a formula sheet and a structured way to interpret each ratio, linking the numbers back to the business so answers earn the analysis and evaluation marks.

Quick questions
FAQs About IGCSE Accounting
Helpful answers about exam boards, syllabus topics, tutor matching and lesson support.
What is the difference between Cambridge IGCSE Accounting 0452 and 0985?
The content and skills are identical — both cover the full accounting cycle from double-entry to analysis. The only difference is the grading scale: 0452 reports on A*–G, while 0985 (9-1) reports on the 9–1 scale. We tutor both in exactly the same way.
Do I need any prior knowledge before starting IGCSE Accounting?
No prior accounting knowledge is required. The course starts from the accounting equation and double-entry, which we teach from first principles. Comfort with basic arithmetic is helpful, but everything else is built up step by step during tutoring.
How are the two Cambridge Accounting papers structured?
Paper 1 combines multiple choice and short structured questions testing knowledge across the syllabus, while Paper 2 is longer structured questions requiring full accounts, adjustments and written analysis. We prepare students for both using official Cambridge past papers and mark schemes.
Which topics do students find hardest?
Correction of errors and the suspense account, adjustments in the final accounts, control accounts, and the written ratio analysis are the most common pain points. These are exactly the areas we focus on, using consistent methods that make the marks reliable.
Is IGCSE Accounting good preparation for A-Level?
Yes. The double-entry foundation, final accounts and ratio analysis map directly onto A-Level Accounting and support A-Level Business and Economics too. Students who reach Grade 7 or above are very well prepared to continue into A-Level Accounting.
