Online Physics Tuition in Singapore: One-to-One and Small-Group Tutors for Secondary, JC, IB and IGCSE
Physics turns everyday events into equations, from a ball in flight to a circuit or a wave, so students need clear concepts, confident algebra and careful graph work. We match Secondary, IP, JC, IB and IGCSE students with Physics tutors for live online lessons, one-to-one or in a small group, on the exact syllabus they sit.

Is Your Child Struggling With Physics?
Physics can feel clear in class and then fall apart in a test, because questions ask students to choose the right principle, rearrange formulae and explain their reasoning in words. If your child memorises formulae without knowing when to use them, or keeps losing marks on graphs, units and practical work, a Physics tutor can rebuild the concepts and practise each step until it becomes routine.
Common Challenges Physics Students Face
Choosing the Right Principle
Deciding whether a question is about forces, energy or motion before reaching for a formula.
The Maths in Physics
Rearranging equations, using standard form and keeping units consistent through a calculation.
Graphs and Data
Reading gradients and areas from motion graphs, and drawing best-fit lines through a set of results.
Explaining in Words
Structured and free-response questions want clear reasoning, not just a final number.
Electricity and Magnetism
Circuits, electromagnetism and electromagnetic induction are abstract and easy to mix up.
Practical Exams
Taking accurate readings, recording them properly and evaluating errors against the clock.
How Our Online Physics Tutors Help
Concepts Before Formulae
Each idea starts with a diagram, so the formula makes sense when it appears.
A Routine for Problem Solving
List what is given, choose an equation, substitute with units, then check the answer is sensible.
Graph and Data Skills
Practice with gradients, intercepts and best-fit lines on realistic sets of results.
Written Explanation Practice
Model structures for explain and suggest questions, with feedback on your child's wording.
Getting Ready for Practicals
Planning, readings, tables and error analysis for G3, H2, IB and IGCSE practical work.
The Right Course, Taught Well
G2 or G3, Pure or Combined, H1 or H2, IB SL or HL, or IGCSE Core or Extended.

One-to-One or Small-Group Physics Lessons
One-to-one lessons work well for targeted help on a weak topic or the practical paper. A small group has up to 4 students at the same level and on the same Physics syllabus. You can also choose any class size, and we'll suggest whichever fits your times first.
How Online Physics Lessons Work
Lessons are live on Zoom, cameras on, usually 1.5 or 2 hours at the same time each week. The tutor draws force diagrams, circuits and graphs on a shared screen or digital whiteboard, and works through calculations line by line while your child follows and asks questions.

One Tutor, Week After Week
Continuity means less time re-explaining and more time moving forward.
Class Size You Choose
One-to-one, a small group of up to 4, or any class size.
Trial Lesson to Start
Your child starts with a trial lesson, and you decide after that.
No Agency Fees
A Physics tutor request is free, and no agency fees apply.
Frequently Asked Questions About Online Physics Tuition
Thinking of Physics Tuition?
Is Physics Harder Than the Other Sciences?
It depends on the student, but Physics leans more on maths: rearranging formulae, reading graphs and handling units appear in most topics. Students who are comfortable with algebra often find it more manageable.
Why Does My Child Understand Physics in Class but Not in Tests?
Test questions change the context, so students must pick the principle themselves instead of following a worked example. Practice with varied questions builds that judgement.
When Should My Child Start Physics Tuition?
Many students start in Sec 3, when Physics becomes a subject of its own, or in JC1 as H2 topics move quickly. Earlier help leaves time to fix the basics before major exams.
Which H2 Physics Syllabus Will My Child Sit?
Syllabus 9478, first examined in 2026. The previous syllabus, 9749, is examined for the last time in 2026.
Is Combined Science Physics Easier Than Pure Physics?
It has fewer topics: 16 in G3 Science (Physics) against 20 in G3 Physics. The skills tested are similar, so the same study habits help in both.
Getting a Tutor

Send the free request form with your child's level, class size and preferred times. We aim to get back to you on WhatsApp within one working day.
What Kind of Physics Tutors Do You Have?
Part-time and full-time tutors, current and former school teachers, and undergraduates.
Can You Match a Tutor for IB or IGCSE Physics?
Yes. Tell us the course and level, such as IB Physics HL or IGCSE Extended, in your request.
Is There a Trial Lesson?
Yes. Every student can start with a trial lesson before you decide.
Lessons
How Do Online Physics Lessons Work?
Live on Zoom with cameras on, with diagrams, graphs and working written on a shared screen or digital whiteboard.
How Long and How Often Are Lessons?

Can My Child Join a Small Group?
Yes, a group of up to 4 students at the same level, all on the same Physics syllabus.
What If Our Connection Drops?
Rejoin the same meeting link. Keeping Zoom updated helps the connection stay stable.
What If My Child Misses a Lesson?
Let the tutor know directly, as early as you can. For a missed group lesson, the tutor can usually share the recording.
