Whether it’s AQA or IGCSE, our GCSE physics tutors know what will help you succeed.
Regardless of the unique combination of topics you study, our GCSE physics tuition is super flexible and tailored to your specific goals. The physics exam is tough, and with so many formulae and concepts to get to grips with, it can be incredibly daunting.
At Tavistock tutors, our directors specially select tutors for their first-class physics qualifications (many of our tutors are Oxbridge graduates!), their passion to teach, and their ability to emphasise with and overcome your challenges.
Across all of the different subjects I teach, I always notice the same thing: the main difficulty that learners encounter is getting overwhelmed by what they're trying to learn. It could be that there seems to be simply too much material to cover; it could be that the concepts seem too difficult; it could be that the whole thing causes...
My approach to tuition is to encourage a deep understanding of the course content, instead of learning a list of facts or how to pass the exam. I do this by trying to explain how the concepts fit within previous knowledge, how it’s applied in the real world and why it’s important that we understand it. Every student learns differently,...
When teaching science and maths I stress the overlap and interconnectedness of the different disciplines. I find this helps abstract concepts to fall into perspective, makes everything less daunting when you realise that the same principles feature in so many different topics and ultimately stands the student in better stead when grappling with unfamiliar territory. My interest in the history...
I feel like my relaxed approach to content which is explained with real life examples allows for anyone I am working with to feel confident and involved in the learning process. It is important to be able relate learning to a purpose or use, as a means of finding a relevance and being able to discover what it is that...
“I am keen to discover each student’s creative potential: whether this is using a new art material or reflecting a fresh way to approach a mathematical problem, and open and exploratory manner to tuition, guided by a firm hand, is key to my approach.”...
I believe that tutor – student interactions should be more open, transparent and interactive. I consider myself to be a learner and involve with the student while teaching the subjects. Each student has a different style of absorbing things and it is very critical to know/understand that style, which makes the learning more fun and productive. My motto - If someone...
“I would explain the concept using examples and real life applications wherever possible and then pose some questions to my students in increasing order of difficulty to test their grasp of the topics we study. Regarding assignments, I would ask them to try each question in their own time and then explain each question to them leading on from the...
Mentoring one-on-one gives the opportunity to learn at the student’s optimal pace. I strongly believe that success at school and beyond is based on strategy, time management, and self-confidence. My passion, diligence and creative skill-set drive my students to succeed....
Tutoring is all about relationships and getting to know my students. I will quickly unpick my students’ areas of weaknesses and work on these topics in fun and engaging ways to make sure progress is made. I love to use mini-whiteboards, props, videos, flash cards and lots of other resources to ensure that students understand the concepts deeply but also...
