How We Make Physics Solvable

Setup over memorization

Most lost marks happen before any calculation: a missing free-body diagram, unlabeled knowns, the wrong relation. We train the setup skill schools grade but rarely teach.

Full course coverage

Kinematics, forces and Newton's laws, energy and momentum, waves and sound, electricity and circuits — every unit in Physics 11 and 12.

AP & IB exam preparation

Derivations, data analysis and long-answer strategy for AP and IB Physics, taught by a certified AP/IB instructor.

An engineer's perspective

Physics sessions are led by a UBC Chemical & Biological Engineering graduate who applied this physics through a full degree — and knows where it shows up in real life.

How It Works

1

Start with your course

Physics 11, Physics 12, AP or IB — sessions follow your class, your teacher's style, your test dates.

2

Learn the method

Diagram, define, choose the relation, then solve. A repeatable process replaces guess-and-hope.

3

Drill exam problems

Timed, test-style practice with full review of every miss — the fastest route from understanding to marks.

Frequently Asked Questions

What physics courses do you tutor in West Vancouver?

Physics 11 and Physics 12 on the BC curriculum, plus AP Physics and IB Physics for students in those programs.

My teen understands the ideas but loses marks on tests — can you help?

That pattern is almost always a problem-setup issue, not an understanding issue. We train a repeatable method — diagram, knowns, relation, solve — and drill it on exam-style questions until it is automatic.

Do you offer AP Physics and IB Physics tutoring?

Yes, both — taught by an AP and IB certified instructor with exam-specific practice, including derivations and long-answer strategy.

Does physics tutoring help with math too?

Substantially — physics runs on algebra and trigonometry, so those skills sharpen together. Students who need dedicated math support can pair this with our math tutoring.

Can you help with last-minute physics exam prep?

Yes — scheduling is flexible (evenings and weekends included), and focused crunch sessions prioritize the highest-mark units on your exam outline.

How much does physics tutoring cost?

Rates depend on grade level and cadence — contact us for current rates.
