Register About Us
Our Credentials
Our Physics tutors pride ourselves on the quality of our teachings and materials. Most of us possess a first-class Honours or postgraduate science degrees from renowned universities which speaks for itself. We also understand that just being competent in achieving good results in school does not necessarily equate to good teaching on our tutors’ part.
To align with our vision, we ensure that each tutor is screened carefully under our stringent hiring guidelines. This allows us to build a team of teachers who are able to impart their wealth of knowledge and understanding to students successfully. We use a unique approach incorporating hands-on experiments to ensure that students understand the concepts thoroughly, which leads to better examination results in school.
Our Story
MOE-Registered Teachers
Many of our teachers are registered with the Ministry of Education. Being MOE-registered will mean that that our teachers have been cleared by MOE as being an individual with proper ethics and morals and with no previous encounters with the law. This is usually achieved by submission of A-level results and university transcripts on the tutor’s part and strict background checks by MOE.
Many parents have provided feedback that this additional credential gives them a peace of mind, knowing that our tutors are trustworthy and professional when they hand off their children to them.
Small Class Sizes
The Physics lab is a small class size tuition centre for physics in Singapore. Our classes are designed by experienced physics university lecturers with the aim to help students understand and master the theoretical concepts in physics. We deliver personalised attention to each student, working closely with parents and teachers to ensure that we set up a learning path that best suits the learning style of students.
With a focus on small class sizes, we place an emphasis on individualized attention. Each student gets the help they need to succeed in the subject they love with tutors that care.
Comprehensive Physics Materials
On top of teaching, an equally important aspect to help students progress is the quality of learning materials and notes. Standardisation of handouts and notes is the hallmark of our value proposition that helps to maintain the high quality of our lessons.
The handouts are well structured and incorporate various learning aids like diagrams, animations, homework problems, and sample test papers. The course is designed to help students in mastering the concepts of physics effectively.
This is achieved through the review of the latest past year papers and school notes from top schools, as well as the compilation of a variety of questions with different difficulty levels for practice. This is a key part of our value proposition that helps us to stand out from other physics tuition centres.
Students who are looking for a little extra help in physics can find tuitions specifically designed for the O Level Physics curriculum in Singapore. These classes provide students with the opportunity to work one-on-one with a tutor, or in a small group setting, to receive the attention needed to succeed.
Conducive Classrooms
All rooms are set to 23 deg C for productive learning Classrooms are fitted with HDTVs and projector screens for visualisations. Our desks are corporate-styled conference tables with pinewood trimmings.
Classrooms play a big role in how well students learn. Factors such as noise level, light, and temperature can all affect how well students focus and absorb information. By creating a conducive learning environment, we can help encourage and facilitate learning. Our approach to teaching is based on the understanding that students learn better in an environment where they feel safe and can ask questions. When students feel comfortable in their surroundings, they are more likely to be engaged in learning.
Step-By-Step Exam Preparation
With our students in mind, we have carefully crafted a unique physics curriculum that stands out in the tuition industry. We want our students to reap the maximum results with what available time that they have in their busy timetables. The syllabus that we have created will allow students to excel in their school examinations once they are enrolled in our classes.
There are many abstract ideas and concepts in the subject of Physics that may make students confused and not be able to relate to them. However, with our step-by-step guidance to break down these concepts into bite-sized pieces, students will have an easier time to incorporate our teachings for the examinations.
Why Doing Well In Physics Is Important
From upper secondary school, Physics is offered as one of the key science subjects in mainstream schools in Singapore, whether is it Pure or Combined Physics. It is one of the prerequisites for many majors in University, especially those that are Engineering related.
With a strong foundation in Physics, students can go on to appreciate how Physics can be applied in the real world, such as sports application, the various kinds of constructions around Singapore, the advancement of technology and even something as simple as switching of lights on and off. Students who eventually choose science over the humanities stream in secondary schools will no doubt have to develop a good foundation on Physics early on so that they do not struggle in JC or at university level as the difficulty and scope of the subject increases.
Our Physics tutors at The Physics Lab have been trained to simplify complex concepts using heuristic techniques and model representations for each chapter so that students have an easier time in class and in answering examination papers. In addition, we showcase the relationship between Physics concepts and real life applications to inculcate an appreciation for the subject so that they develop a genuine and keen interest in the subject and not just rely on the memory work. This will help students achieve the desired results at the end of the day.
How to Choose the right Physics Tuition Center
Physics tuition is an essential part of learning physics and physics tuition in Singapore is a unique industry that has been growing rapidly over the last few years. Getting your child a tutor to help them with physics will ensure that they are getting all the help they need to succeed. However, you must be sure that you pick the right tutor for your child otherwise, you might end up wasting your efforts and your child will end up struggling in their studies. There are a lot of physics tuition centers in Singapore, and it can be very difficult to choose the right one for your children.
It is important that you choose tuition centers that will teach your children in the best possible way so that they learn something new. There are many choices of physics tutors around Singapore, but when it comes to choosing one, you may want to consider some factors:
Tutors' relevant experience
Tutors that are naturally high achievers will have the most impact on your child. Besides having great qualifications, they also enjoy the work that they do.
Tutoring is more than just simply instructing a student, it is also about engaging with them and nurturing their love for the topic. An ideal tutor will be a master of the content of the topic and also a master at keeping their students on their toes.
Tuition fees
Tuition classes don’t come for free, but for the sake of your child, the fees must be paid. So to get the most value for your money, you should always do thorough research before choosing the right centre. It is best to survey around and choose the best that’s within your budget. Not all tutors are expensive, there are many affordable options to choose from. It is also good to keep in mind that being expensive doesn’t always mean better.
Teaching methods
Many tutors have different ways of teaching, some may be helpful for certain students but not for others. It’s important to choose a tuition centre that uses suitable teaching methods that are best for your child. It would be even better if a centre offers a range of methods and are able to be flexible when working with your child. Factors to look out for that could give you an idea of the environment are the qualifications, experience, and communication within the centre.
Availability of topics and subjects that require more attention
It’s impossible for a tuition centre to provide for every single subject, even if they do, the quality of the teaching might be questionable. Therefore, it is important to check with your child which parts they are struggling with, then locate a centre that may specialise in those topics. It would be useless to send your child to a centre that only teaches or concentrates on topics that they have no problem with.
Tutors dedication to their students
Time management and approachability are great characteristics that a tutor can possess. However, dedication is the most important characteristic to look out for. Having tutor that is dedicated, commited and passionate about teaching your child will ensure that they will excel. Tutors can be seen as a role model for your child to follow. To have a driven individual teach your child is providing them with the proper guidance to grow into a successful adult.
Class Chats
We have established an online chat function for our students and teachers to communicate. Our physics tutors often host Q&A sessions for students, especially for difficult topics. If you require an answer to your question, feel free to hop on to our discussion chats!
SuperTeen Programme
We want the best for our students beyond just achieving excellent results in their exams. That is why we try to inspire students to adopt a self-improvement mindset by disseminating a series of self-help books for free!
Online Feedback
Get in touch with your physics tutors on a daily basis! Students can now take a snapshot of their work and send it via Whatsapp or Email to our teachers for prompt review and feedback. Our teachers will get back to you within 24 hours while you can go on with your daily activities without a fuss.
Helping Needy Students
We envision equal education amongst all students. That is why we have come up with a initiative to help students with financial difficulties so as to bring out the best in them.
Take-Home Practices
We emphasize that practice makes perfect. For each student, we provide sufficient practice questions for student to handle as homework each week. Our practice problems are progressive and helps to ensure the continuous improvement of our students in the curriculum.
Getting to University
Our end goal is to ensure that students are able to enter university with a smile on their faces. Seeing our students embark on another journey is always a sentimental moment. We are lucky that students still keep in touch with our tutors and their tuition friends even after their journey ends with us.
Recipe for success
Every child learns at a different pace. We recognise this fact and help our students of all levels to excel using our unique teaching techniques. Our teachers are experienced in keeping a look out for any stumbling blocks and will provide each child with the attention that they require.
Confidence is key
We know that confidence is essential to the development of a child’s learning. Consider that a classic classroom setting in school involves an average of 40 students all equally vying for a teacher’s attention. Our teachers at The Physics Lab, on the other hand, ensure that every student receives individual attention due to our small class size of 5-10 students.
Progressive Lessons
Our classes are designed to aid students to progress to a higher competency level in Physics. We do that with step-by-step guidance for your child in an easy and manageable way.
Guide to Exams
Rest assured that we have compiled quality materials and teachers to help your children unleash their full potential.
