Testimonies
Sec 4 Pure Physics, Class of 2019
Mr Leon is an extremely patient and nice teacher who never failed to answer my queries whenever i texted him. He also targets the main points and narrows down selective questions that often tend to appear in the past exam papers which really helped. I really am extremely thankful for Mr Leon for helping me jump 5 grades within only half a year of tuition!

Mr Leon has great teaching experience and a very thoughtful teacher who puts a lot of thought into how he presents his material that my daughter till today refers to his quality materials from time to time for her exams revision. His lessons were engaging, useful and very patient and encouraging with my daughter. He paces the class just right so that my daughter feels challenged enough but not overwhelmed. His lessons engages the student to respond in a fun way and thereby promotes faster learning. He is especially patient and eager to help and that has motivated my daughter to improve tremendously thereby doing well in her exams last year despite the odds of missing a lot in school due to some health issue. And as a parent, I am indeed fortunate to have found his class online and would highly recommend him for his passion and dedication is beyond words.

Leon is a very professional and patience teacher. He will explain concepts in details which is very important for my daughter to conquer her physics questions. My daughter scored A for her A level. She was not confident at the beginning of JC1. Thks Leon. She's awarded scholarship with SUTD now.

Leon helped me to realise the gaps in my understanding and was extremely open to consultations whenever I needed them. He was the only reason why I could consistently be getting my As throughout year 6.

Approached Leon late in April 2021 for Physics tuition to my nephew whose result has been poor since JC1. Only 6-month's and my nephew got a sterling 'A'…grateful for Leon's personal guidance and patience and keeping me informed when he identified issues beyond academic scope. Positive: Sincere, Attentive and Dedicated.

How do we come in?
Each Physics lesson will be taught with the following key areas of focus
Key Highlights of our Physics Classes
Simplification Of Content
As the contents are abstract, the lessons are structured to simplify the concepts and teachings with relevant examples for ease of understanding.
Qualitative Answering Technique
The know-how to tackling explanation questions would be explained with a comprehensive structure, breaking them down with clear pointers to follow.
Detailed Summary Notes
Content is being summarised to give the key ideas in each chapter. Notes will also include worked example with a step-by-step guide to enhance understanding of each lesson.
Key Highlights of the Lesson
Knowledge Acquisition
Information related to topic of interest is delivered in the class with a mixture of practice questions in between to grasp basic understanding of each topic.
Knowledge Application
Concepts taught would be discuss during the class in the form of pictures/videos to spark greater interest in the topic involved.
Knowledge Mastery
We conduct bi-monthly revision of past topics with a summary of key concepts and revision practices.

Learning Physics at the ‘O’ / ‘N’ level exposes students to the occurrences in the physical world around them. The syllabus aims to equip students with the knowledge to explain and account for events that occur in the real world in a qualitative and quantitative manner.
Sign Up For JC H2 Physics Tuition
As an extension to the ‘O’ Level syllabus, our ‘A’ Level JC H2 Physics classes aims to deepen the understanding of the physical world around us through the introduction of advanced content knowledge and greater appreciation of the subject. Students will learn to analyse relationship between quantities with the use of equation or formulae.
100% Grade Improvement within 3 months
Through our “learn-by-example” approach with “follow-up”
exercises, students are able to grasp the concepts and use them
with precision in applications.

O Level Physics Tuition
Learning Physics at the Secondary level equips students with the knowledge to explain and account for events that occur in the real world in a qualitative and quantitative manner, through the use of theories, formulas and calculations.
A total of 5 branches of Physics is taught in the ‘O’ level syllabus. Of which, 4 are covered under the Combined Science ‘N’ level syllabus.

General Physics
Topics covered includes physical measurements, describing and explaining changes in motion in terms of force and energy. This forms the foundation of the remaining topics in Physics.
Thermal Physics
The concept of heat and how it can flow between objects with different temperatures is explained in this part of Physics. Expanding further in the Pure Physics syllabus, students would also learn how to quantify the energy transferred when temperature changes or state changes.
Waves
Understanding how periodic motion can be caused by oscillating sources. Students will learn to describe and explain daily phenomena such as water waves and the production of sound through vibrating sources. For the ‘O’ level syllabus, the ray model of light and its application would also be introduced.
Electricity and its Application
The understanding of the accumulation of charge, the basic quantities used to describe an electrical circuit and how to measure them would be introduced. Students will learn to quantify the energy needed for an appliance to work and learn the possible arrangement in the circuit with or without safety features.
Magnetism and
Electromagnetism (‘O’ level only)
The relationship between Magnetism and Electricity would be discussed in this branch of Physics. The generation of electricity through induction would only be discussed in the Pure Physics syllabus. At ‘O’ level, the use of formulas to make quantitative calculations involving Magnetism is not expected. However, students should be able to describe the factors that could affect the strength of the magnetic field created by electricity and its effect.

Measurement
This is the foundation of Physics. Students will learn to appreciate the use of uncertainties in physical measurements and be able to make approximation in real life.
Newtonian Mechanics
This includes an explanation of motion in topics such as Kinematics, Dynamics and Energy. The basic concepts are further extended to understand objects in Circular Motion and the effect of Gravitational Field on masses.
Thermal Physics
Thermal physics include the introduction of absolute temperature scale and the kinetic theory of ideal gases, which is branched out into engineering application using the 1st law of Thermodynamics. At the end of this part, students should be able to appreciate how thermal energy is utilised in real-life application such as engine and refrigeration.
Oscillation and Waves
This section touches on the study of Simple Harmonic Motion as an example of Mechanical Oscillation. Advanced knowledge on the energy of waves and the effect due to the interaction of several waves through the principle of superposition is also introduced.
Electricity and Magnetism
A quantitative approach to analysing electrical circuits, forces due to magnetic field and the production of electrical energy through electromagnetic induction is introduced in this part. This is an extension to what was taught previously in Secondary school, where more formulae are introduced.
Modern Physics
The study of Quantum and Nuclear Physics would form the final section of Physics at the ‘A’ Level. Students would be learning an alternative theory to explain the behaviour of light through the use of the Photoelectric effect experiment. Nuclear Physics, on the other hand, provides a glimpse of how nuclear fusion and fission processes release energy which can be applied and vital to the energy production of an electrical power plant.
How Do We Come In?
The aim of this course in Path Finder is to build the analytical skill required to tackle real-life applications questions expected of students at the ‘A’ Level.

JC H2 Physics Tuition
Our “A” level physics tuition classes focuses on deeper content knowledge, a higher level of critical thinking and the ability to analyse relationships between quantities with the use of equations or formulae. With the addition of Modern physics, students can gain advanced knowledge and the ability to relate physics to the physical world around them and in everyday life even the laws of Physics or life of science could not explain.
