My Physics Coach
My Physics Coach
Specialist one-to-one tutoring for A-Level, GCSE and IB Physics, focused on deep understanding, exam performance, and confidence.
Former senior leader and examiner with 29 years classroom experience, supporting students through structured teaching, precise feedback, and targeted exam preparation.
I provide high-level, specialist online physics tutoring for students studying GCSE, IGCSE, A-Level and IB Physics. My work focuses not just on content knowledge, but on how physics is examined — how questions are constructed, how marks are awarded, and where students lose credit despite understanding the material.
This is not generic tutoring. It is structured, assessment-informed academic support designed to improve both understanding and exam performance.
Conceptual understanding, exam technique, and targeted intervention in core areas including forces, energy, electricity, waves, and structured problem-solving. Support focuses on building clarity, confidence, and exam performance.
Advanced support in mechanics, vectors, moments, fields, waves, and data analysis, with a strong focus on exam reasoning, mark-scheme interpretation, and structured problem solving.
Support for HL and SL students focusing on conceptual clarity, structured problem solving, exam technique, command terms, and internal assessment guidance.
Most tutoring focuses on explanation and repetition. My work is grounded in assessment literacy — how physics questions are constructed, how mark schemes allocate credit, how misconceptions are embedded in exam design, and where students lose marks despite understanding the material.
This perspective comes from direct involvement in assessment development, quality assurance, and examiner work, not just classroom teaching. Students don’t just learn physics — they learn how physics is examined.
I have 29 years’ experience in physics education across teaching, school leadership, and assessment. My career has included roles as a Vice Principal, school leader, examiner, and assessment consultant, alongside extensive work in question development and quality assurance for international physics qualifications.
This background gives me a deep understanding of how physics is taught, how it is assessed, and how student performance is evaluated — from classroom learning through to examination outcomes.
