Description
This course is designed for students taking GCE “O” Level Physics examination. It is carefully developed to help students prepare for examination in the shortest possible time. Each video lesson is carefully crafted with animated illustrations so that students grasp each concept visually in under 10 minutes. It makes the learning process simple, fast and effective. Students will gain in confidence to tackle examination questions after going through the course.
Whether you are a teacher/tutor looking for teaching materials or whether you are a parent sourcing for GCE "O" level Physics materials to help your child, this course will be excellent.
Every lesson consists of a short video that explains the concept with animated illustrations using everyday-life examples. At various learning milestones, quizzes with commonly asked examination questions are provided to enable students to test their understanding and reinforce their learning. Throughout the course, students will be given exam preparation tips, advised on commonly made mistakes and misconceptions and taught the skills of how to correctly answer GCE O Level questions. By the end of the course, students will be well equipped with the knowledge required for examination.
What skills will students gain through this course?
Specifically, students will learn the following:
✓ apply Newton's Laws to
(i) describe the effect of balanced forces on a body
(ii) describe the effect of unbalanced forces and how a force may change the motion of a body
(iii) identify action-reaction pairs acting on two interacting bodies
✓ identify forces acting on an object and draw free-body diagram(s) representing the forces acting on the object
✓solve problems for a static point mass under the action of 3 forces for 2-dimensional cases
✓ apply the relationship resultant force = mass × acceleration to explain and solve problems
✓ explain the effects of friction on the motion of a body
How will students benefit from this course?
Learn each concept easily in under 10 minutes.
Visualise and grasp the concepts through animated illustrations and everyday-life examples.
Gain confidence in exam preparation through a guided program of solving past examination questions after understanding each concept.
Get tips on commonly made mistakes and be corrected on misconceptions.
Discover the different types of questions that are commonly asked in examination.
Who this course is for:
- Students preparing for GCE "O" Level Physics examination
- Anyone interested in the topic on Dynamics
Instructor
From my past 10 years tutoring high school students in Physics, I have met many students who simply did not understand what was taught in school. Even two weeks before their examination, they were still unable to answer a single Physics question. Many of these students have lost interest in Physics and have very low self confidence when faced with examination questions.
I have helped these students through a very simple method of learning each concept in less than 10 minutes. Then encouraging them to attempt commonly asked examination questions after they have learned a concept. Within just half a day, these students master the entire Physics syllabus taught in a year. Many of these students shocked their school teachers when they go from failing to scoring in Physics examination, within a very short time.
I believe there are many students out there in need of such help. Hence, I have assembled the resources that I have built over the years into video courses, selling at just tens of dollars so that students who could not afford a tutor can have access to good learning materials and excel in their Physics.
I have a degree in Electrical & Electronics Engineering from National University of Singapore and a Master in Business Administration from Nanyang Technological University. Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics are my favorite subjects.
I hope you will enjoy this learning journey with me.
