Feedback on the Physics tutors we work with
"It has been a pleasure dealing with Jean-Michel and I have been impressed with his intuitive and highly professional approach to his classes with my son. Not only has he succeeded in identifying and sorting out the issues that were bothering my son in the first place, he has also stretched and stimulated his interest in other areas of the subject."
Mother of A Level Physics Student"Natasha helped my son enormously to prepare for these hard exams in all 3 Sciences - Physics, Chemistry and Biology - covering all points with him whilst helping/teaching him how to think and solve scientific questions by himself and practising past papers. Natasha is a lovely, kind, punctual, nice, friendly, responsible, committed and very professional & experienced Science tutor and we are very grateful to her for her precious lessons."

Articles on IGCSE tuition
How to Get a 9 in GCSE Physics
How hard is it to get a 9 in GCSE Physics? Physics is quite often considered the most daunting Science for GCSE pupils, since concepts are challenging and there is a high mathematical element. But do not be perturbed! We will look closely at what is required to get top grades below, and hopefully shed some light on any concerns. On average, AQA award grade 9 to candidates scoring 70% and Edexcel to those achieving 75%. These grade boundaries vary annually.
What is the Difference Between IGCSE and GCSE?
What are GCSEs and IGCSEs? The General Certificate in Secondary Education or GCSE is a subject-based academic qualification taken by students in the UK at the end of their compulsory education in Year 11 (age 16). They are typically studied over a 2 or 3 year period, starting in either Year 9 or 10 depending on the subject, exam board or school and finish with a set of examinations at the end of the course.
