Short-term ad hoc Math or Physics tuition during June Holidays 2014.

Posted on by admin

By all means, go for your holidays, even short ones (I’m going on 10, 11 and 12 June). However, if you had done badly in your SA1 or mid-year exams, do not let the June hols pass without reviewing your first semester work. For things will only get harder in the second semester, and some topics or concepts learnt in the first semester need to be used to understand some topics later in the year.

If you are too busy to attend weekly tuition, you might want to take the opportunity this June to consult a qualified and experienced tutor, for just a few hours and for a few difficult topics. Since it is the school holidays, the lessons can be in the mornings or early afternoons.

If you need solid tutoring in Pri, Sec or JC Math, or Sec or JC Physics, don’t hesitate to contact me at 97860411 and I’ll work out an arrangement for you. You may opt for individual tuition or in small groups of 2 to 4 students from the same class or school. Fees vary depending on the level and number of students.

If you have any queries, you may also call or sms to 97860411, or send an email to principal@singaporelearner.com.

If you are serious about improving your Math or Physics, hope to hear from you soon.

Rgds,

Ilyasa

Updates & Reflections on my Learn Ahead Programme (LAP) – A. Math & Physics

Posted on by admin

These are what I covered this week:

S4 A. Math:  We started on Differentiation – Idea of limits and the derivative, dy/dx, power rule. Students find it interesting that we can determine the gradient at a point on a curve without drawing a tangent.

S4 Physics: We started on Static Electricity – the idea of charge, the coulomb,  insulators, conductors, charging by friction, charging by induction, charging by contact, earthing, electric fields, applications of electrostatics. Unfortunately textbooks, don’t cover much about what happens when a charged insulator touches another insulator, when an insulator touches a conductor (either is charged), and when a conductor touches another conductor (either or both initially charged).

S3 A.Math: We revised the beginnings of Logarithms a bit as a new student has just joined. Conversion of index form to log form and vice versa, base e and base 10.

S3 Physics: We revised Kinematics because of a new student – distance vs displacement, speed vs velocity, deceleration vs negative acceleration, scalars and vectors, kinematics formulae.

Ilyasa (hp: 97860411)

Compliment from a secondary school Physics teacher ….

Posted on by admin

Below is an email (with names removed) I received from a Physics teacher on Nov 14, regarding my post IMPORTANT TOPICS FOR O-LEVEL PHYSICS (5058) PAPER 2 2013.

————————————————————————————————————–

Hi Ilyasa,

I am <teacher’s name>,

<Student’s name>’s physics teacher.

He has attended yr physics crash course in oct.

I have compiled a list of qns based on yr predictions for 2013 paper 2.

I am impressed by the accuracy of yr predictions and would like to ask you If there are any methods u have used to reach such accuracy besides doing the elimination method.

I can be contacted at <hp no.>.
