TRANSFORMING POTENTIAL INTO CAPABILITIES

Welcome to The Physics Corner: Unlocking the World of Physics, One Step at a Time!

The Physics Corner is a specialist tuition centre focused on providing top-quality & holistic education to 'O' Level or equivalent learners.

OUR VISION

To nurture in individuals a passion for learning Physics and achieving more than academic excellence.

OUR BELIEF

We strongly believe that in every learner, there exists a corner where the interest in and passion for Physics reside. With the right teaching approach and learning experiences, one can be guided to this corner where one’s interest in Physics can be ignited, inspiring one to learn all about Physics and its role in our world!

ALEX TENG

Tutor & Founder

Alex attained his Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering (Honours) from Nanyang Technological University and his Postgraduate Diploma in Education from the National Institute of Education (NIE), Singapore.

Alex has more than 12 years of teaching experience in 'O' Level Physics and Lower Secondary Science. Over the years, he has mentored students in Science projects, conducted Applied Learning Programmes (ALP) in Science for the lower secondary level, and has taught students with varying ability levels in various MOE and IP schools. He believes that teaching and learning should be dynamic and fun to engage learners with different learning styles and abilities.

Alex has a strong passion for dance. He is keen to help students relate real-world and artistic experiences to Physics. He hopes to instil values and life skills in his students to help shape creative and responsible individuals while striving for academic excellence.

STUDENT EXPERIENCE

Here at The Physics Corner, our lessons include in-class practical segments in trickier topics like kinematics, electricity and magnetism. These help students visualise abstract concepts and enhance their understanding through real-life applications.

With a small class size of no more than 8 students, every student will get the attention needed. The small class size also means we can easily customise the learning to each individual student, as well as carry out our
Predict-Observe-Explain (POE) visual learning method, Find out more about the POE approach and our students' learning journey by clicking on the button or watching the videos below!

POE Approach

Testimonials

"Previously before having physics tuition, i struggled to understand and apply concepts which lead to many misconceptions that only surfaced during my weighted assessments however after starting physics tuition at TPC, I can understand the physics concepts much easier and am able to apply the right formulas for the right questions which helped me to improve my physics grade by almost 5 grades from a C6 to A2! Lessons at TPC are also very engaging with simple experiments which allows us to visually understand the concept 😁"

Why The Physics Corner?

HIGHLY QUALIFIED AND DEDICATED TUTOR

Our classes are all taught by Mr Alex Teng, a former MOE teacher with more than 10 years of teaching experience. He is passionate and competent in teaching both Lower Secondary Science and ‘O’ Level Physics.

CURATED LEARNING RESOURCES

Notes and worksheets are carefully curated, constantly reviewed and closely aligned with the MOE syllabus to enhance concept-based learning and improve academic performance.

SMALL CLASS SIZE

Greater attention to and interaction with individual students for a better learning experience which is in keeping with one of TPC’s main emphases, that is, to motivate students to learn.

ASSESSMENT & INDIVIDUALISED FEEDBACK

Regular formative assessments to better prepare students for the national examination. Individualized feedback will be given through the marking of students’ work and 1-to-1 or group consultation to better address the learning gaps.
