All parents who actively enroll their kids in private tuition (Physics or otherwise) would have pondered on this question at some point: “Should I send my child to a tuition centre where lessons are conducted in a class of 10 to 20 students, or would my child benefit more from…
The Ministry of Education had announced in December 2020 that students from secondary schools and junior colleges will have one day of home based learning every fortnight. This move signified that home based learning will gradually become an integral part of the Singapore school curriculum.
These are some of the things I do to monitor the progress of my Physics students, and also help them gauge themselves. This has been religiously carried out to great effect as I found that my students are having an easier time for their revision and being more productive with…
Everyone knows that Singapore is a highly competitive society and that from a young age, even kids face exam pressures and parents often feel compelled to compare notes to determine which schools are faring better and which teachers are outperforming their colleagues.
Parents and tutors have definitely encountered such a scenario where trial lessons are requested for their children before they decide to commit to further lessons. Most people think of the term “trial lesson” as meaning one of two things.
If you are a secondary two student in Singapore who is going to have to decide what subjects to take up when you progress on to your upper secondary education, you may be thinking if you should take up Physics as a Pure or Applied Science subject. It is fortunately…
One can only agree that being good at memorising will no doubt help in one’s Physics exams as some questions do rely on pure regurgitation of Physics concepts to get the marks. Such questions will include definitions and basic formulas that do not require much understanding of the subject itself.
While conducting research for Stanford University, psychology professor Mark Lepper and certified paediatrician Maria Woolverton interviewed tutors who teaches primary level Science and secondary level Physics to find out what common qualities do successful tutors actually share.
Over the years, as schools around Singapore start to shorten the duration of time spent in classrooms due to additional commitments such as co-curricular activities, the demand for tuition classes has also seen a corresponding increase, especially for hard subjects such as Physics tuition lessons.
As Japan implemented a new educational measure, also known as Yutori – which translate to “relax”, to reduce the time spent in school and provide some level of autonomy in self-cultivation back in the 1980s, the average grades started to decline.
All of us have had the experience of taking an exam, and recognising the question type as one we have done before, but ultimately losing marks due to our careless mistakes.
Physics is a niche science subject that students can choose to pick up on as a Science elective in upper secondary level in Singapore. However, simple concepts of Physics have already been taught in General Science in primary schools in Singapore.
Ever wonder why some students can do well for Physics examinations while others constantly struggle throughout their school years in Singapore? Is Physics tuition really necessary to do well for Physics examinations?
As school hours get shorter, Physics tuition is becoming more sought after by parents in Singapore. Students who have a natural inclination towards subjects that relies on logical thinking will fare better at Physics but generally speaking, there have been a growing number of students who face difficulty grappling with…
Like any subjects, one can only get better with Physics if sufficient amount of work and effort is put into learning the subject. Physics is definitely one of those subjects where last minute preparation does not work at all since there are a lot of conceptual theories that build on…
The education system in Singapore has been well lauded by people from other countries as being robust and comprehensive. This is apparent as there are many instances of overseas students coming to Singapore from a young age to seek education here.
The Physics Lab is dedicated to providing the perfect study environment for students of all levels to understand the subject better.
We believe every student has the potential to be excellent in Physics, but also that this potential needs to be unlocked. The Physics Lab is our attempt at unlocking that potential by providing quality notes, study material, and coaching to students who wish to excel in the subject.
