Quick answer: Velocity Tuition Academy provides online 1-on-1 Physics tutoring for IGCSE, A-Level, IB and MYP students across Cambridge and Edexcel, covering Cambridge IGCSE Physics (0625), Edexcel IGCSE Physics (4PH1), A-Level Physics (Cambridge 9702, Edexcel IAL YPH11) and IB Physics at HL and SL. Tutors focus on precise working, units, required practicals and command-word technique, and every student starts with a free diagnostic.

Who Teaches Physics

Our Physics teachers are experienced Cambridge, Edexcel and IB specialists who understand exactly what examiners want to see. They teach conceptual understanding alongside precise exam technique โ€” so every mark is earned, not guessed.

What We Focus On

Physics marks are frequently lost to incomplete responses, missing units, and poorly explained reasoning. We identify these patterns early and work systematically to eliminate them before exam season.

What Makes It Work

Each session combines conceptual explanation with problem-solving practice. Topical past paper questions are introduced after every topic so students develop real exam fluency โ€” not just familiarity with the theory.

Every Board. Every Level.
Every Physics Specification.

From Cambridge 0625 and Edexcel 4PH1 to A-Level 9702 and IB Physics, your child's tutor works with that exact specification and its paper layout.

Why Strong Physics Students Still
Lose Marks They Should Not

My child understands the Physics theory but cannot express it in a way examiners award marks for. The knowledge is there โ€” the precision of language is not yet there.
My child understands the Physics theory but cannot express it in a way examiners award marks for. The knowledge is there โ€” the precision of language is not yet there.
Electricity, waves and modern Physics keep losing marks โ€” not because my child does not understand, but because they rush or miss steps under pressure.
A-Level Physics is a significant jump from IGCSE. My child managed IGCSE well but is now genuinely struggling with the mathematical demands of A-Level.
IB Physics HL is intense. My child needs someone who knows the IB assessment criteria and can help structure extended response answers properly.

Physics Gaps Are Silent
Until the Exam Reveals Them

Physics understanding can feel solid during lessons but collapse under time pressure. The gap between knowing the theory and performing under exam conditions is the most common reason strong students underperform.

Physics understanding can feel solid during lessons but collapse under time pressure. The gap between knowing the theory and performing under exam conditions is the most common reason strong students underperform.

โŒ Starting Late

My child can explain what electricity is but loses marks on every circuit calculation. Nobody has identified which step is wrong โ€” so they keep practising and repeating the same errors every session.

โœ… Our Approach

Sessions identify the exact step in each calculation where marks are being lost. We correct the method, practise under timed conditions, and repeat until performance is reliable โ€” not just understood in theory.

Why Early Starters Do Better
๐Ÿ“…
Time to Build ProperlyStructured preparation over months means every topic is covered, tested, and genuinely understood before the exam.
๐Ÿ“
Exam Technique EmbeddedMark scheme requirements, examiner language, and question formats take time to internalise. They cannot be rushed.
๐Ÿ“Š
Past Papers With ContextPast papers only build confidence when the syllabus is already understood. Early starters get far more from every paper.
The students who arrive at Physics exams calmly are almost always the ones who started months before their peers.

Our Physics
Preparation Framework

Four stages take a Physics student from first diagnostic to exam-ready.

01

Free Diagnostic Assessment

A free Physics trial to test problem-solving and understanding, then a straight briefing for parents on the work ahead.

02

Board and Level Matching

Each Physics tutor is a board specialist, Cambridge, Edexcel or IB, and knows how its examiners mark calculations, graphs and explanations.

03

Topic-by-Topic Physics Lessons

Physics is taught topic by topic, from motion and forces to electricity and waves, with problem sets and short tests each week and a progress report for parents every month.

04

Exam Readiness

Before the exam we switch to timed Physics papers, marking against the official scheme and fixing unit, rearrangement and graph errors.

Plan Ahead โ†’

Reaching an A* in IGCSE Physics

An A* in IGCSE Physics depends on secure command of core concepts, fluent use of equations with correct units, and disciplined technique on calculation and extended-response questions. Many capable students lose marks not on understanding but on presentation: missing units, not quoting the right equation, or failing to show the substitution that earns method marks. We prepare each student topic by topic, embedding past paper questions as soon as a concept is covered, then correcting against the mark scheme so examiner expectations become second nature. Practical-skills and data-analysis questions are practised throughout, not bolted on at the end. Starting six to nine months ahead gives time to close gaps before revision, the single biggest predictor of an A*.

Cambridge IGCSE Physics (0625) vs Edexcel Physics (4PH1)

Cambridge IGCSE Physics (0625) and Edexcel IGCSE Physics (4PH1) cover similar core content, mechanics, electricity, waves, thermal physics, magnetism and atomic physics, but assess it differently. Cambridge 0625 emphasises a practical alternative paper and concise calculation questions across the syllabus. Edexcel 4PH1 tends toward longer, structured questions and expects students to recall certain formulae rather than be given them. The right preparation tracks the exact paper structure and formula list for the board your child sits. Our tutors match each student to their specification and drill the question styles their board favours.

IB Physics SL vs HL: What Your Child Needs to Know

IB Physics is offered at Standard Level and Higher Level, and the gap is significant. HL covers additional topics and greater depth, demands stronger mathematical fluency, and includes more challenging Paper 1, 2 and 3 questions. SL is more manageable but still requires solid command of the core and the practical and data-analysis skills assessed throughout. Universities for physics, engineering and many sciences often prefer or require HL, so the level choice has real consequences. We help students judge whether HL is the right stretch, then prepare for the exams and the Internal Assessment investigation.

MYP Physics Tutor: Criteria A to D in Practice

Physics in the MYP is assessed through the Sciences criteria. Many schools teach Physics as its own course in MYP Years 4 and 5, and some enter students for the optional on-screen eAssessment. Each criterion is marked from 0 to 8, and the four totals (out of 32) are converted into the final 1 to 7 grade. Our MYP Physics tutoring works criterion by criterion, using your child's own task sheets and rubrics.

Criterion A: Knowing and understanding

recalling and applying scientific knowledge to explain familiar and unfamiliar situations.

Criterion B: Inquiring and designing

writing a testable question and hypothesis and planning a fair, safe method.

Criterion C: Processing and evaluating

presenting and interpreting data, drawing a valid conclusion and evaluating the method.

Criterion D: Reflecting on the impacts of science

weighing how science is applied to a real problem and its wider effects.

MYP Physics families can read how the Sciences criteria are marked, how MYP grades are calculated or our IB MYP tutoring page.
