What parents, students and home educating families say about studying GCSEs and IGCSEs with Brainy Lemons.
Real feedback, published exactly as it was sent to us.
“We have used you for Marine Science and Geography IGCSE subjects. We were very pleased with both the cost and ease of use of your online learning. We are very happy with the experience and would fully recommend you to others. Thank you.”
Marine Science IGCSEGeography IGCSE“I love Brainy Lemons so much I’ve been recommending it to others. What I found, as a parent, the most useful was the timetable feature. I could put when I wanted the course to finish into the timetable and loved how it worked out a weekly set of lessons. This gave us plenty of time for revision and exam practise and my child went into the exam feeling confident.”
Environmental Management IGCSE“My son is home educated and we signed him up to the Geography and Business courses. We got a discount when signing up for 2 courses and so it worked out really good value for money. My son has found it easy to use just following through the lessons and it really helped to be able to set a deadline to keep my son on track. I would really like to see more subjects and more options to pay where you can spread the cost as being home educated and having to pay for all education yourself can really add up.”

Set the date you want to finish and Brainy Lemons works backwards to build a weekly set of lessons, leaving room for revision and exam practice.
Courses are £49 instead of £69, with a further discount for signing up to more than one subject — something home educating families tell us really matters.
Students simply follow through the lessons in order. No complicated setup and no hunting for the next thing to study.
Self paced 30 minute lessons with deadlines you control, designed to fit around family life rather than a school timetable.
Progress tracking, quizzes and revision tools mean students walk into the exam hall knowing they have covered the specification.
Courses aligned to AQA, Pearson Edexcel and Cambridge, so you can match whichever board your exam centre supports.
Yes. Every review on this page was sent to us directly by a parent or student who has studied a Brainy Lemons GCSE or IGCSE course. We publish feedback as we receive it, including suggestions for how we can improve — you will see one of our reviewers asking for more subjects and the option to spread the cost.
Home educating families are a large part of our community. Our courses are self paced, broken into manageable 30 minute lessons, and include a bespoke timetable so you can work back from an exam date and keep your child on track without needing to plan every week yourself.
Courses are £49 each, reduced from £69, and there is a discount when you sign up for more than one subject. Value for money is one of the points parents mention most often in their reviews.
We cover a growing range of GCSE and IGCSE subjects across AQA, Pearson Edexcel and Cambridge, including Biology, Geography, Business, Marine Science, Psychology, Sociology, Environmental Management, and Travel and Tourism. You can see the full list on our courses page.
Free sample lessons are available so you and your child can see how the lessons, quizzes and timetable work before signing up. Visit our courses page to take a look.
