Patrick B
Experienced Maths and Science Tutor Physics and Science
I enjoy Mathematics greatly, having studied both Maths and Further Maths at A-Level, also while I was at sixth form I took part in working as a classroom assistant in Year 8 Maths lessons, which gave me valuable experience at teaching students. I took part in another programme which taught the elderly how to be computer literate, these two experiences have given me very different skills to utilise whilst teaching.In my experience as a one-on-one tutor I have usually found my best strategy is to utilise examples, both ones I work through myself and others I assist my students in working through,...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

How can an online physics tutor help with the 'maths in disguise' problem?

A tutor can help with the complex maths required for GCSE Physics by breaking it down into smaller, manageable steps. They'll focus on explaining how to rearrange equations, ensure your child is using the correct units, and build their confidence in applying mathematical skills to physics contexts, rather than just memorising formulas.

What's the difference between tutoring for Triple Science and Combined Science Physics?

Your child’s online physics tutor will always tailor lessons to their specific course. If they’re doing Triple Science, their tutor will cover the extra topics and greater depth required. For Combined Science, they'll ensure your child thoroughly understands the core physics content.

How do tutors help with memorising and applying the many equations?

A GCSE physics tutor won't just make your child rote-learn the syllabus, they’ll teach them effective memory techniques, understand the principles behind equations, and practise applying them to exam-style questions.

Can a tutor explain abstract concepts like electromagnetism or quantum phenomena?

Absolutely! Our experienced tutors use analogies, diagrams, and step-by-step explanations to demystify topics like electromagnetism or particle physics, helping your child to visualise and truly understand the ideas they can't easily see.

How do online lessons work for GCSE Physics?

Your child will meet their GCSE physics tutor in our virtual classroom, which has a whiteboard, live video, and instant messaging. They can work through problems together, share resources, and get instant feedback, all from the comfort of their home.

When is the best time to find a GCSE physics tutor?

There's no single 'best' time to start. Some students benefit from starting early in Year 10 to build a strong foundation, whereas others look for support in Year 11 for specific revision challenges or to solidify understanding of the most abstract topics.
