A big player in the market … yet one that has a personal touch.
Our Physics Tutors are all fully-qualified and experienced Physics Teachers; subject-specialists, professional, energetic and up-to-date with the current demands of a changing curriculum and the various Examination Boards. Lessons are taught at your home and are scheduled at your convenience; whether weekdays, evenings or weekends.
Many parents get frustrated by poor quality, unqualified tutors. That’s why all 18,000+ of our UK tutors are qualified schoolteachers – so you know they are trained to teach children, safe, and experienced at teaching the latest curriculum at a high-quality.
You don’t need to scroll through pages of irrelevant and often unavailable tutors with our service. Just fill in our simple form or have a quick phone call and, within 24 hours, we will send you a shortlist of available, suitable teachers in your area.
You can be safe in the knowledge that if you are unhappy with your first lesson (this is rare, but we understand that sometimes the fit isn’t quite right), we will not charge you for the lesson, and we will look to find you another high-quality teacher.
I am an enthusiastic teacher of Physics with 17 years` experience. I enjoy hill walking and off-road cycling. I am married with a son living away from home. I specialise in teaching A level Physics and Cambridge Pre-U and have experience with all examination boards and with both A and B specifications. Before becoming a teacher I had a wide experience of industry and also worked in two university departments: Trinity College Dublin as a Physics Lecturer and Durham University as a Computer Science lecturer. I taught KS4 and KS5 Physics at Emmanuel College and was Head of Physics at Barnard Castle school. Since my partial retirement, I have taught Physics at Durham High School for girls in 2019 and 2020. I have now retired from full-time employment and am available throughout the working day and in the evening to provide online tuition.
I have been teaching Biology, Physics and Chemistry, from Key Stage 3 through to GCSE for over ten years. I provide support for GCSEs, Scholarships, Common Entrance and Independent School Entrance Exams. I have experience in GCSE Tutoring for all three sciences across all exam boards. I am also a Common Entrance Exam setter. I currently teach GCSE Physics in a school setting alongside science tutoring roles.
Qualified and experienced Science teacher, currently working as a freelance tutor. Teaches Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Maths and General Science from Prep and Key Stage 3 through to GCSE, IGCSE and A level, across all the major exam boards. Associate Examiner for GCSE and A-level Physics (edexcel) for Pearson Education. Able to provide homeschooling, home tuition and online tuition as required.
With 22 years of teaching experience in both the US and the UK, I am an experienced educator and have worked with a great variety of abilities and age levels. I have taught Biology, Chemistry, Physics, STEAM and Forensic science in both New York and London. My approach to teaching is one of caring and fun, it is my priority to understand each student`s unique learning style and help them find the best methods to learn and retain material. Student comprehension is paramount to me and I will often go the extra mile to achieve the desired results. In addition to teaching Science, I like to think of myself as a bit of a Renaissance woman, interested in a great many things such as art, music, sports, robotics and cooking. These varied interests help me connect with my students and explain concepts using ideas and analogies they can understand.
"Teachers To Your Home" is the disclosed agent of over 18,000 qualified and experienced teachers across the UK, who also choose to offer their professional skills as high quality home tutors.
Physics helps you to understand how the world around you works, from can openers, light bulbs and mobile phones to muscles, lungs and brains; from paints, piccolos and pirouettes to cameras, cars and cathedrals; from earthquakes, tsunamis and hurricanes to quarks, DNA and black holes. From the prosaic ... to the profound ... to the poetic, we can provide a Physics Teacher who can help you.
Our teachers can support Physics, at all levels, and can provide high quality tuition for Primary and Junior levels, as well as prepare children towards 11+, 13+, Common Entrance or for GCSE, IGCSE, IB and A level Examinations, across all the major Examination Boards including OCR, AQA, Edexcel, CIE, Eduqas and WJEC.

Physics is the study of the world around us. In simple terms Physics explains how things happen. Why do things fall, speed up, slow down? Why do bulbs or LEDs light up? How do speakers make sounds? How does lightning happen? How does ultrasound see inside us? How does a mobile phone work? How do lenses help us see better? How do signals travel to us from space? How do the planets orbit the sun? How are stars formed? How do Nuclear Power Stations work? How do huge ships stay afloat? These and many other questions are answered by learning about the main branches of Physics including force and energy, materials and particles, radiation, electricity, magnetism and electromagnetism, waves, thermal physics, space physics. Physics, like all the sciences, has a large amount of practical work and much of the learning is through doing rather than just sitting and listening. This will develop observation, measurement and recording skills and encourage the student to come to their own conclusions and evaluations, based on what they have seen and done for themselves.
At GCSE level, Physics is either studied as separate subject or makes up a third of Combined Science. As a separate subject, Physics can be studied as Single Science and receive a full GCSE grade. In Combined Science, the extension topics in Physics, Chemistry and Biology are not taken and the exams in all three subjects lead to two GCSE grades, so it is sometimes referred to as Dual Award Science. If a student intends to study Physics at A level then it is best, though not essential, that they take Physics as a Single Science. The main awarding bodies are AQA, OCR, Edexcel, WJEC, Eduqas (part of WJEC) CCEA in Northern Ireland and SQA in Scotland. Assessment is through written exam papers, typically 2 x two hour papers or 3 x 90 minute papers. There is no separate practical assessment or coursework, but questions will be set based on the core practical activities the students will have carried out for themselves.
For entry into A Level many schools would want to see a grade 7 or higher at GCSE, otherwise a student may struggle to do well at A Level. At A level the concepts and ideas studied for GCSE are built upon and taken further, along with some applications of Physics which may include Astrophysics, Medical Physics, Engineering Physics and Electronics. A level Physics also involves a large amount of practical work. Assessment is typically three written papers, each around two hours long. A level Physics can give access to a wide range of university courses and consequently related careers, such as Physics, Engineering, Astrophysics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Medicine, Biology, Chemistry, Sports Science and Pharmacy amongst others.
