I’ve taught IGCSE Physics for ten years and still enjoy mechanics more than any other part of the course. Forces and motion become much easier once students learn to draw what is actually happening before reaching for an equation. I’m quite particular about units and working, especially in multi-step calculations. During exam preparation, we use past papers regularly and spend as much time discussing mistakes as getting answers right.

Hi! I’m a Physics tutor with five years of experience working with IGCSE students. My engineering background means I naturally enjoy electricity, circuits and electromagnetism. I use a digital whiteboard for most lessons because drawing the problem usually makes the physics easier to see. We’ll solve one question together, then I’ll change the setup slightly and let you work out what still applies and what needs a different approach.

My background is in mechanical engineering, and I’ve been tutoring IGCSE Physics privately for seven years. Energy, pressure and thermal physics are topics I particularly enjoy because there are plenty of everyday examples to work with. Rather than memorising equations in isolation, students learn what each quantity means and when a relationship is useful. I also include short calculation drills where rearranging formulae needs extra practice.

Before moving into education, I worked with instrumentation and electronic systems, so practical Physics has always been a big part of how I teach. I’ve spent eight years supporting IGCSE students, with electricity and measurement among my favourite areas. We often discuss how an experiment could actually be carried out before looking at the written question. That makes variables, accuracy and evaluation much less abstract when they appear in an exam.

I’m an experienced science teacher with more than seven years in secondary education and extensive IGCSE Physics teaching experience. My lessons are structured around explanation, questioning and application rather than lengthy note-taking. Waves are a particular interest of mine, especially when we reach refraction and the electromagnetic spectrum. I use unfamiliar data and practical questions regularly so students become used to applying ideas outside textbook examples.

Aerospace engineering was my route into Physics, so I’m naturally drawn to motion, momentum and anything involving forces. I started tutoring six years ago and now work mainly with IGCSE students. My lessons are fairly informal, but calculations have to be set out properly. I like giving students a problem before explaining the method, as their first attempt often tells me more about what they understand than ten minutes of questioning would.
