      Agree that it is not too late to hire a tutor for your child. My daughter is in JC1 this year, and she took Pure Physics in Upper Sec. It was her weakest subject and she got F9s for Physics papers for every exam for the 2 years, including Prelims. She started Physics tuition in June, and for β€˜O’ Levels, she attained a B4 for Physics and qualified for Science course in JC as she studies at Anderson JC now.

      Harlo can you please PM me the contact for the physics tuition? My girl is oso same case to yours :slapshead:

                Just curious… if a child is doing ok for math, how likely to do similar for physics? Formulas n all… is there any correlation?

                  Doing well for mathematics would mean that he/she will be able to manipulate formulae to obtain final answers with ease, he/she will also be able to see relationships between quantities.

                  Hence having strong mathematics foundation is certainly useful when learning Physics.

My dd1 ex-tutor is a good tutor and teaches Physics too but I am not sure whether her rate is within your range. For more details, you can contact her at 93989072 (Miss Goh). Usually she provides tuition in Jurong West but she is agreeable to teach my nephew who is in CCK so it is worth giving a try.

                        Basic advice for students who are struggling with Physics.


                        Physics is a notoriously difficult subject. Many students have a tendency to memorize concepts in physics without understanding. I think that when students really try to understand and solve difficult physics problems.

                        Firstly, try to understand the situation. (Ask which chapter is this from? What concepts are being tested? Naturally, ideas that have been taught will resurface as the student re-associates the problem with his knowledge)
                        Next, read the questions carefully before organizing the information and ALWAYS draw a diagram if possible!
                        From the information available, choose the right formula to apply.
                        Check that units and significant figures are correct.



                        Learning physics the right way helps to attain a unique problem solving skill that many industries (commerce, banking and finance) are looking out for. Encourage your students to understand the problem instead of repetitive rote learning!

                        This skill will then take them far in their academic life πŸ™‚
