Take control of your learning with a six-step AI-powered study system used by students across every subject and level. No more guesswork. No more wasted hours. Just purposeful, effective study.
The Velvet Method is grounded in decades of cognitive science research — schema theory, retrieval practice, Bloom's Taxonomy, and metacognitive learning. Each step uses AI to make these principles accessible and personalised for every student.
Every resource on this site is a demonstration of what's possible when you use AI intelligently. The AI Study Guide teaches you the exact prompts and techniques — so you can apply them to any topic, any subject, any level.
Start every subject by asking AI to map the full specification — topic by topic, showing connections and mark weightings.
Ask AI to build a custom game around any topic in any subject — tailored to exactly the content you need to learn.
Move beyond recall — ask AI to present real-world scenarios that require you to apply and analyse your knowledge under pressure.
Structured courses that walk you through the full methodology — with worked examples, a complete prompt library, and practice exercises for your subjects.
The View step builds a mental framework before any content is learned — new knowledge attaches more deeply when there's an existing structure to connect it to.
Retrieval practice — the Verify step — is one of the most robust findings in cognitive science. Testing yourself strengthens memory far more effectively than re-reading.
The Explore step targets higher-order thinking — application and analysis — which consistently differentiates grade boundaries in every subject at every level.
John Hattie's research identifies self-regulation as one of the highest-impact educational interventions available. The Transform step builds this habit deliberately.
The AI Study Method works with teachers from Eton College and Wycombe Abbey School to develop subject-specific courses across the platform.
Most revision resources help students prepare for one set of exams. The Velvet Method teaches students to use AI as a learning partner for the rest of their education — GCSE, A-Level, university, and beyond.
The free resources on this site demonstrate the methodology in action. The courses teach your child to apply it independently — to any subject, any topic, any level — so you're not paying for a tutor every time a new challenge arises.
Courses are built by qualified educators — including teachers from Eton College and Wycombe Abbey — and grounded in well-established educational research.
