My name is Maksim, and I am currently pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering from Imperial College London. I have three years' experience in Maths and Physics tutoring.
The transition from GCSE to A Level Physics can be especially daunting and overwhelming for students, with a substantial increase in both workload and complexity. At A Level, students require a greater depth of understanding for each topic, and the pace of lessons means that it can be difficult to find time to properly revise and revisit each topic throughout the year. To address this challenge, I propose a summer course that addresses key topics within Year 1 A Level Physics, to facilitate a smooth transition from GCSE into Year 12. I will cover not only new material, but will also revisit crucial GCSE topics in a new light to provide a stress-free introduction to A Level, equipping students with the foundational skills and confidence they need to succeed.
I propose the following program, spanning 6 weeks, with each 1.5 hour session per week covering a different fundamental A Level Physics topic:
Week 1
Motion and Kinematics
Week 2
Forces, Work, Energy and Power
Week 3
Newtons Laws of Motion
Week 4
Charge and Current
Week 5
Energy, Power, Resistance and Circuits
Week 6
Waves
Availability for optional extra consolidation lessons after the conclusion of the course.
NOTE: The exact time and dates of lessons can be amended according to the availability of students
