PHYSICS TUTOR
ONLINE PHYSICS TUTOR RESOURCES
There were two important strategies I was taught when I first entered the teaching world:
1. There is no need to reinvent the wheel 2. It’s not about “what” you say, but “how” you say it
To address the first point, and bring relevancy to education and tutoring, there are a myriad of resources and problems out there which students can use to practice. However, sometimes information is not communicated in a way that the student understands, and every student is different. You can have a PhD in Nuclear Engineering and be able to build and maintain a nuclear reactor, but explaining fundamental concepts at a level that a student in grade 11 or 12 physics can understand may be tricky (or not!). Here, you will find some helpful handouts and practice problems (with solutions!) for PHYSICS problems.
