A certified teacher helps your teen see the physics behind each problem, then set it up and solve it. They work through the course your teen is taking, from motion and forces to waves, fields and modern physics, and help with labs, unit tests and final exams.
Certified teacherOnline, home or libraryPhysics is often the senior science students find hardest, because almost every question needs algebra, graphs and sometimes trigonometry. Courses include Ontario's SPH3U, SPH4U and SPH4C, BC's Physics 11 and 12, Alberta's Physics 20 and 30, and Quebec's Secondary 5 physics.
Grade 12 physics is a common prerequisite for engineering and many science programs, so the final mark often counts in university applications.
Picture the physics
Your teen's teacher starts with a diagram and what is actually happening, before any numbers.
One method, every problem
They practise a clear routine for setting up and solving problems, so new questions feel familiar.
Labs and graphs
Help collecting data, drawing and reading graphs of motion, and writing up results with the right units.

Most families notice it at homework time or when a report card comes home.
Your teen knows the formulas but doesn't know which one to use or where to begin.
Directions, components and motion graphs keep tripping them up, even on simple questions.
They can follow worked examples, but test questions that are worded differently leave them stuck.
Grade 12 physics is a prerequisite for the program they want, and they need a strong mark.
Physics questions rarely look like the examples in the notes, so a student who memorized the steps gets stuck. Teachers are trained in pedagogy, the practice of teaching. They show your teen how to read a problem, picture what is happening and choose the right approach, while following your province's science curriculum.

Your province's curriculum
Kindergarten to Grade 12Pushes and pulls, how things move, simple machines, light and shadows, and sound.
Hands-on play and questions that build an early feel for how the physical world works.
Forces, simple machines, light and sound, energy and its forms, and electricity and circuits.
Your child learns to predict and test, the way physicists think.
Heat and temperature, forces and structures, fluids and pressure, and energy transformations.
A solid base for the physics units of high school science.
Static and current electricity, circuits, energy, light and optics, and motion.
Help with the physics units of Grade 9 and 10 science, often a student's first taste of physics equations. It is all part of our science tutoring.
Kinematics, forces, energy, momentum, waves and sound, electricity and magnetism, gravitational and electric fields, and modern physics, in courses such as Ontario's SPH3U and SPH4U, BC's Physics 11 and 12, Alberta's Physics 20 and 30, Saskatchewan's Physical Science 20 and Physics 30, Manitoba's Physics 30S and 40S, Nova Scotia's Physics 11 and 12 and New Brunswick's Physics 112 and 122.
Exams carry real weight in physics. Ontario now requires final exams in most high school courses, and in science the exam counts for 20% of the final mark in Grades 9 and 10 and 25% in Grades 11 and 12. Alberta's Physics 30 diploma exam counts for 30% of the final mark. Exam practice focuses on multi-step problems that combine several ideas.
A higher standard of tutoring
Teaching is a profession. Certified teachers are trained in how students learn, so they spot the gaps, adapt the explanation and build the skills your child needs to move forward with confidence.
