Tuition centres are like any other commercial services, and you want to understand exactly what kind of teacher, class, and syllabus you are signing up for. Use these six important questions to guide you in picking the best tuition centre.
Memory work is essential not only in the humanities subjects, but also in math and science, such as Physics. There are many Physics formulae that have to be memorized as a formula sheet is not provided in exams. There are also specific problem solving strategies that have to be remembered….
If you approach any Physics student revising to either catch up with the school syllabus or for their school exams and ask them what is the single most important thing that they will need to keep in mind to do well in their Physics exam, 8 out of 10 students…
Every student wants to get that highly coveted A1 for Physics. You might think that only the really smart ones are privileged enough to get A1s, or you may assume that you will need to do an insane amount of work before you have any hope of achieving that. But…
I have often been asked the question: How do you study Physics? The trite answers, get as much practice as possible, and be consistent with your school work, are well known to everyone. I think when people ask me the question “How do you study Physics?”, what they really mean…
Textbooks for our school children have become much better over the years. Nowadays, authors are adept at using pretty illustrations, mind maps, and clear language to convey Physics concepts. Many of our brighter students are even able to use MOE-approved textbooks for self-study before the teacher covers the material in…
I strongly believe that zoom lectures are the new normal. When educators learn how to deliver lectures with the same degree of effectiveness as in a traditional classroom setting, many students will want to attend classes remotely.
Schools and universities increasingly require their instructors to be equipped to conduct online classes, regardless whether it is for Physics or other subjects. These are list of essential materials and equipment you will need to have.
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.
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.
