Oxford/Cambridge Physics Aptitude Test Practice for Physics, Physics and Philosophy, Engineering and Materials Science

From 58.3 C$ /h

In order to be considered for a place at Oxford or Cambridge in any subject you have to pass the relevant Aptitude Test. As a former physics student at Oxford I have first hand experience both sitting the Physics Aptitude Test and 3 years experience marking it.

During the lessons we will work through previous exam papers to make sure you have the confidence you need to conquer this challenge.

Feel free to ask any questions and good luck with the exam!

In my class, I would like to help my students with the necessary tutoring and proper direction towards understanding natural science subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics for students at IB level, high school level, and school level. I am familiar with the European School system, International School System, and A-level.

I myself was among the top 3s during my high school days and since then I have a great experience tutoring. I would look into problems from the student's point of view. This enables me to know where they are having difficulty and then help them study nicely.

Hi! Looking to improve your physics and chemistry skills, either online or at a specific location in Marrakech? You are in the right place !
Chemistry and physics teacher and I acquired an individual pedagogy in education, I give secondary support classes in physics, chemistry and maths
Learn from real-world examples: instead of putting up with hours of theoretical material and trying to relate it to practical issues, we'll just focus on summaries and exercises. By giving you the information and skills you need to succeed, programming allows you to understand the different concepts, chemical balances, spontaneous, mechanical, electrokinetic transformations and mechanical waves.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Passionate & empathetic teacher. I have a Master's in Physics with honors from the University of Leicester (which was featured at the time as a top 5 Physics university in the UK by The Guardian) and a - french - European School diploma in which I achieved 90% in Physics and 85% in Maths.

Helping others understand difficult topics and skills is something that I am very passionate about as an empathetic person. I have experience teaching Physics and Maths to kids from unprivileged backgrounds at the homework school in Saint-Gilles (CASG du Service Social Juif asbl) as well as 5 years of private teaching.

In my classes, I aim to:

- help students achieve better grades in exams/tests in all branches of Physics & Maths
- clearly explain and break down topics
- give context and or example applications of topics (to improve understanding and memorization)
- help with ADHD & other learning disabilities
- give practical advice for university applications (eg. UCAS in the UK) and discuss the exciting Physics research/work and projects you can work on later in life.

Physics has a plethora of useful and fascinating applications, from the detection of Gravitational Waves and Gamma-Ray Bursts to the development of novel Medical Imaging techniques and Nano-technology (eg: smartphones). It is a subject that I am very passionate about and I hope to make use of my years of experience and extensive knowledge to help you understand and love the subject! My lessons will always be tailored to the individual needs of the student, so please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions!

Maths for Everyone is a class designed for people who want to understand maths clearly and without fear. It is open to learners of all backgrounds, whether you struggled with maths before or simply want a stronger foundation.

The class focuses on real understanding rather than memorising formulas. Concepts are explained step by step using simple language, clear examples, and practical intuition. Students are encouraged to ask questions, make mistakes, and build confidence at their own pace.

Lessons are adapted to the level of the learners and may cover core arithmetic, algebra, functions, graphs, probability, basic statistics, and problem solving skills. The goal is not speed, but clarity and confidence.

No prior knowledge is required. The aim of this class is to make maths understandable, useful, and accessible to everyone.

I am a dynamic and demanding teacher who gives private lessons in Physics-Chemistry as well as Mathematics.

I graduated from teaching seven years ago, after a masters in physical sciences with honors, and I teach in college and high school since.
I have also been preparing students for the Baccalaureate Science for many years, all of whom have been awarded very good honors.
I also prepare my students for different exams (Matu, Bac, preparation for EPFL, etc...)

I make sure to rework the basics so that the student can progress quickly. It is important to me that my students acquire a solid foundation of knowledge.
I also give effective work methods that will allow him to progress much more quickly and so he can regain self-confidence.

I can travel to the student's home or also conduct the lesson via Zoom/Google Meet.
