Conquer HSC Physics with expert tutoring

Year 11 HSC Physics Curriculum

To support students in achieving outstanding results in these physics modules, I will use a combination of conceptual understanding, practical application, and analytical skills development across key areas of motion, wave behaviour, thermodynamics, atomic theory, and electromagnetism.

In kinematics, I’ll guide students in describing, measuring, and analysing motion through scalar and vector quantities such as displacement, velocity, and acceleration. By using graphs, vectors, and equations of motion, students will develop their ability to predict and describe motion both qualitatively and quantitatively.

When studying forces and Newton’s Laws, I’ll focus on connecting forces to motion. In wave motion, I will introduce the properties of waves, such as wavelength, frequency, and amplitude, through visual demonstrations and hands-on experiments. Students will explore wave behaviours like reflection, refraction, diffraction, and superposition. I’ll highlight the distinctions between mechanical and electromagnetic waves, explaining their propagation and energy transfer.

For thermodynamics, students will learn about energy transfer through heat and the relationship between energy, work, and temperature. In electromagnetism, I will use the concepts of electric fields, energy conservation, and electric charge to explain the behaviour of charged particles. Students will explore electric field representations and employ mathematical models to predict the behaviour of objects.

Additionally, we’ll study electric circuits, examining energy conversion and transfer in real-world technologies. This approach will equip students with a comprehensive understanding and analytical skills, enabling them to excel in these foundational physics areas.

Year 12 HSC Physics Curriculum

To support students in achieving outstanding results in these advanced physics topics, I will provide structured guidance that connects foundational concepts with complex applications, fostering critical analysis and scientific inquiry.

In complex motion, students will start by mastering the principles of motion in one dimension and gradually progress to analysing motion in two and three dimensions. Through hands-on experiments and problem-solving exercises, students will apply Newton’s laws and energy transformation principles to understand systems involving projectile motion, uniform circular motion, and orbital dynamics. When studying electric and magnetic fields, I will guide students in exploring the foundational concepts of force interactions between charged particles and fields. Practical investigations will include analysing forces on current-carrying wires, Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction, and the functioning of transformers, motors, and generators. This hands-on approach will help students comprehend these interactions in real-world applications, reinforcing the principles of electromagnetic fields and the conservation of energy in technological devices. In modern physics and quantum theory, I will introduce the groundbreaking discoveries of the 20th century, including the theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. When exploring cosmology and the atomic model, I will introduce students to the scientific evidence supporting the Big Bang theory and stellar nucleosynthesis. By examining the evolution of atomic models—from Thomson’s discovery of the electron to Schrödinger’s quantum model—students will gain a historical perspective on how scientific theories evolve with new evidence. We will discuss modern developments in particle physics and the Standard Model, reinforcing an understanding that our knowledge of matter is constantly advancing.

This approach will help students develop a strong conceptual foundation, analytical skills, and an appreciation for the evolving nature of scientific understanding, equipping them for academic success in physics.

What students and parents say about my tutoring

I just wanted to say a big thank you for your help this year with Chemistry and Biology. When I first joined Online Science Tutoring, I was struggling to keep up with my coursework and feeling overwhelmed. Your patient and encouraging approach made all the difference in my academic journey, allowing me to achieve the high grades I aimed for at the start of this year. You have an incredible ability to break down complex concepts into easily understandable pieces.

What I appreciate most was your dedication to ensuring I truly grasped the material. Instead of simply giving me answers you guided me to find solutions on my own, which improved my confidence and critical thinking skills. Your teaching style was also engaging and adaptable, always finding creative ways such as using diagrams and drawing mind maps to explain difficult topics that resonate with my visual learning style.

I’m incredibly grateful for your mentorship and would wholeheartedly recommend you to any student seeking to excel in their studies. I personally believe your impact goes beyond academics – you’ve helped me become a more confident and capable learner. I just wanted to end this off by saying I hope other students have the privilege of having you as a tutor.

I’m incredibly grateful for your mentorship and would wholeheartedly recommend you to any student seeking to excel in their studies

Dear Mr Lewis,

Thank you so much for your company these three years; it has been a great pleasure for me to be your student. I am not exaggerating to say that I fell in love with the subjects of physics and chemistry because of you. Your classes are always interesting and full of enthusiasm, which inspires me with passion and desire to explore physics and chemistry. Whenever I asked you a question, you always answered me very gently and patiently. You also encouraged me a lot which made me feel valued. Therefore I am very touched by your support and concern. Time goes by so fast; I really can’t bear to say goodbye. In my future study life, I will continue to work hard and make you proud. You are my favourite teacher, and I will always remember you!

I am not exaggerating to say that I fell in love with the subjects of physics and chemistry because of you
