Content That Does Get Results
Content That Does Get Results
My child found the content very useful and it certainly helped my child feel more comfortable with their subjects and better prepared for exams.
I would strongly recommend.
Website is not working
I have just paid for the membership, and it is only showing 3 of the 5 courses I need to revise. There are no sections covering Macbeth or Jekyll and Hyde, which were the main reasons I subscribed.
I also tried using your AI chatbox, which informed me that I would be connected with a human in the next 3 days. This is simply not acceptable — 3 days is preposterous. The chatbox has now stopped communicating with me and now there seems to be no way of resolving the issue.
I would like a full refund to be issued as soon as possible.
my experience with their incredible customer service
You have probably heard about how great the revision is but have you heard about their astounding customer service? The site wasn't working for me after I paid and I was extremely worried that my money would go to waste. I contacted them through the chat bot on their website and requested them to contact me through email as i couldn't access responses via the chat bot after an hour. They responded to me, requested a few basic details and immediately got to work on my case. They frequently updated me and worked tirelessly on my case and I am happy to say the site now works perfectly. I want to thank Holly as she was so professional and was amazing throughout the experience. Thank you so much!!!
Thank you
My SEN child struggled massively in school. He watched just your short clips and they were amazing and engaging for him. Perfect short snips and he went from 3s to 6s and only watched from Feb to exams. Thank you so much for what you do!
10/10
I went from barely scraping a grade 6 at the start of year 11, with no support from my teachers and hating english, to getting 2 9s in my gcses and 5 marks off of full marks in English lit using this website!
Subscribe now
amazing website totally suggest you go buy it. I was predicted a 2 in english lit and i ended up getting a 6 by using the website legit the day before the exam. If that is not convincing enough then idk what will.
New website doesn't work
The new website is not ready for release. English Literature content is inaccessible, and there is no way to cancel a membership.
Despite sending an email, I have received no response, only the AI agent is available, which does not resolve these issues.
This is extremely disappointing, especially as the previous website functioned well. The lack of responsiveness and support for paying customer is unacceptable.
GCSE progress
At the start of the year I was predicted a grade 3 in English language and a grade 4 for English lit after using the lightup hub with their predictions and notes in preparation for my GCSEs. I was able to get a five in English language and a seven in English lit
Went up by 2 grades
Hi i just wanted to say thank you so much and recognise what you do because i found your account in march just after barely getting a C* in my GCSE English language mock exam and after watching loads of you videos and taking on your tips for sentence structure and analysis i pushed my C* to an A in under 3 months!! And i actually got 10 marks off full marks in my paper xx
Amazinggg
Light up hub helped soooo much I went from a 4 in English lit to a 7 in 2 months and on lit paper one I got 55/64. Deffo recommend 😊☺️
Went from a 4 to a 7 in eng lit and…
Went from a 4 to a 7 in eng lit and lang in just 2 weeks of using the lightuphub. I made my own digital flashcards which I would literally just memorise which got me 60/64 in lit paper 1. If I had it earlier I would’ve secured a grade 9 in lit. Very worth your money on this website and good luck to those starting year 11.
Amazing
Just got my papers back for lit and got FULL MARKS on ACC, AIC, Macbeth and Power&Conflict!
Grade 9's and full marks🥹
HI! I just wanted to say the biggest thank you ever. I was sat at 2 6's for both english lit and Lang, and ended up with 2 9's this august. Better yet I got FULL MARKS in literature paper 2! I can't explain how shocked I was when I received my papers back but then I remembered it was all thanks to you, thank you so much. I'm so grateful and proud.
What I think
I heard of this website on social media and I decided to try it out I originally had grade 4s on my English literature snd my goal was a 5 in the questions I had in my Macbeth exam I did nit revise the topic but I linked it to every other topic like the supernatural increased his ambition etc but my poetry went okay to be honest I felt like I did hired in the exam since I revised poetry but it came up wihr a poet in the exam to which I couldn’t link it except to one which I didn’t revise but had knowledge on back un year 9 but I know it was this website that helped me because I got a GRADE 6 in the end even I was flabbergasted and till this day I always wonder how so if you guys are planning to get it but think it’s expensive buy it! It is worth it IF you put the effort in it the thing is this website doesn’t just have videos but even slides and demonstrations of an essay and good context on the plays so it’s worth every penny
Grade 8 In Lit, thank you !
Im going into year 12 on Monday and just wanted to say a massive thank you ! I think for my mocks I was on a 5/6 for English literature. I used Lightuphub alot during my prep for the GCSE English exams and I not only felt more confident about my essays but also achieved a great grade for English literature! Results was a couple days ago, I got an 8 in literature so a massive you ! I've only used the freebies and YouTube videos so I actually didn't have a membership purchased due to using the website quite late in year 11 but I recomened to year 10/11 students ! Thank you so much !
Absolutely brilliant - and the results prove it!
My daughter was on a 5/6 for English however was really wanting to do better. She heard of your app through friends/social media and convinced me to sign up. Not only did her grades jump but she also really enjoyed the learning process through your app. She made time for it and was energised and motivated by your videos, tips and the easy to use website. She was so shocked and happy to open her results to an 8/9 - a 9 in English literature too!! Thank you sooooo much!!! You’ve made a girl very happy!!!

I bought a one month subscription in the month leading to my exams, before I was always a good student but with particular aspects especially context I lacked massively being a grade 7 6 student, through light up hubs resources I achieved double 9s in English lit and lang only dropping six marks in both literature papers. Deffinatly worth buying for the structure and support going into and in the exams
The light up hub has been amazing!!

My essay skills have improved so much and I received an eight in English literature 🤩
The best website to come out of 2025
The best website to come out of 2025 , everything that I studied on this is exactly what came up on the exams and I was taught in such a productive way, that I was able to fully understand and remember what it is that I have learned. The thing that I love the most is the way how each point is explained so carefully down to the smallest detail. Could not be more happy and my grades reflected just how great it was.
Got me a grade 9 in english literature…
Got me a grade 9 in english literature went up 4 whole grades from year 100 to year 11
