I’m doing my maths level 2,this learning from home is becoming a bit of a pain because some parts of it I’m really struggling with.
Percentages I’m quite good at, fractions I’m not bad at addition I’m not bad at the areas where I’m really struggling is Ratio and proportion, long multiplication and improper fractions.
I would just love to get back to class as soon as possible.

Aren't you allowed a calculator for the long multiplication?
Have you tried some past papers and then looked at mark schemes?

When I took my GCSE they had one non-calculator paper... although a calculator can often be used it can possibly be necessary in exams to do it the hard way!

I agree with the past papers. The best way of learning by far.

This YouTube channel is rather good for teaching you how to solve things, step by step. :)

You may find this video useful as it focuses on ratio, one of the areas which you say you're struggling in.
Excellent suggestions. I know after I left school that they were beginning to implement Hegarty Maths as one of their main platforms. Glad to see it still up and running.
