The Physics Lab
At The Physics Lab (a subsidiary of ECUBE Science & Math Lab), we see Physics as a very “alive, meaningful and dynamic” subject! And teaching Physics concepts is not about “reading” through slides! Learning is not completed just by “clicking” slides or “googling” for answers!
We understand that many students struggle with, fear, or even ‘hate’ Physics for at least one of the following reasons:
- Boring, unclear & at times, ‘contradictory concepts’ lesson delivery in school
- F1-style” of speedy teaching
- Too many topics allocated for “E-learning” in the name of ‘self-directed learning!
- Cannot meaningfully link Physics to everyday applications
- Unable to apply formulae and explanations (with key concepts) to new situations (which is usually due to not understanding key concepts in the first place!)
- Always asked to memorise, revise, and practice what they couldn’t understand! (But I need to emphasize that committing learning to memory is a very important step toward exceling in Physics … but it does not last long if the learning/understanding has not occurred in the first place!)
- Constant, poor performance during tests and assessments – leading to discouragement & low-confidence.
There’s hope! As exemplary & award-winning former MOE teachers & JC lecturers, we understand the importance of engaging our students – to help them see the relevance of Physics in everyday applications, beside helping them achieve better grades. Demo & experiments are often utilised to reinforce difficult & abstract concepts, and to foster a deeper interest in the Science.
Being confident of our lesson delivery, approach and learning resources, we strongly encourage students to take our “1st Trial Lesson FREE” challenge*. We strongly believe that your child will be able to discern and decide if we are competent to help them towards academic excellence in Physics. (*trial lesson is FREE if a student did not wish to continue after the trial lesson)
At The Physics Lab, we coupled our strong passion with the 3Es approach of “Engaging delivery, Empowering learning & Exceling to greater heights” to value-add to our students’ tuition & learning experience!
Engaging the Learners
we infused brain-based learning & accelerated learning, and employed strategies such as memories techniques & hands-on activities, to help students anchor important formulae and key concepts and remember them for a much longer time!
Empowering Learning
- Comprehensive Notes & Carefully-Selected Worksheets Resource Books on ‘Basic Concept-Building, Comprehension & Challenging Applications’
- Concept Maps and “WITA – What Is This About” Summary for each Topic.
-
Brain-based strategies & memory techniques to help ‘Anchor’ important formulae & key concepts, as well as make learning effective & fun!
(i) Humour, Exaggeration & Mnemonics
(ii) Stories & Anecdotes
(iii) Brain teasers & Science demo
(iv) Concept & Mind Maps
Exceling to greater heights
- Learning in advance. When students begin to do well in class tests and taste “small” successes, they will begin to see themselves in a new light & develop a stronger sense of confidence in their learning and ability to breakthrough.
- Regular performance coaching & PET talks before or after lessons, structured activities to teach important life & study skills help to encourage students to excel in all areas of studies.
