JC 1 / A LEVEL H2 PHYSICS HEAT & LIGHT INTENSIVE RELEARNING & REVISION JUNE 2018
For all JC students taking H2 Physics in the A-levels this year who struggle with heat and light related problems. If concepts such as work done in heat/PV graph, waves in phase/out of phase and diffraction grating or interference pattern confuse you and keep you up at night, you must attend this program.
In each lesson, the tutor will clear all misunderstanding about key concepts, and introduce proper answering techniques with regard to scoring well in school exams, as well as the actual A-level paper. Lesson is conducted in a lecture and tutorial style, with short lectures for conceptual understanding, and challenging tutorials to cover the range of questions which will be tested.
Course Outline:
5/6: Thermal Physics (First Law, Ideal gas, KE of a molecule)
12/6: Wave motion (Graphical representation of waves, polarization and transverse waves)
19/6: Superposition (2 source interference pattern and diffraction grating
Duration: 3 weeks, 2h each
Dates: Every Tuesday 5 June. 12 June and 19 June
Time: 230 pm – 430 pm
Location: Blk 644, Bukit Batok Central, #01-68. S(650644).
Format: Teaching + Worksheets + Discussions
Target Group: Current IP Y6 students and J2 students.
Our worksheets are selected based on past year questions from a variety of JCs, and based on common past year questions from the A-levels. During lessons, we provide tips or question spotting based on trends observed in different schools.
Lectures are based on textbooks Longman Advanced Level Physics, and Pearson/ Vuille Serway College physics international edition.
Note:- Discounted fee for signing up together with another student. Do let us know.

JC 1 / A LEVEL H1 / H2 MATH GRAPHING INTENSIVE RELEARNING & REVISION JUNE 2018
Many JC students lack confidence in graphing/sketching questions. They waste
more than 15 minutes sketching a curve and might still get it wrong. Some students do not understand the order of transformation and scaling.
This course will allow you to master graphing techniques and sketching, and effectively score full marks for this segment in your promotional exams or A-levels. There will be a strong focus on transformation and scaling equations, and graphs such as the negative, modulo and reciprocal graph.
By the end of this class, you will learn how to:
-Spot common graphing trends and problems
-Understand the significance of restricting domain and range in graphing
-Effectively utilize your graphic calculator to sketch complex graphs
-Confidently and correctly sketch difficult graphs such as reciprocal, modulo and y-squared graphs in under 10minutes
-Systematically perform transformation of graphs without error
Duration: 3 weeks, 2h each
Dates: Every Wednesday 6 June. 13 June and 20 June
