| Step | What your child does |
|---|---|
| Identify | State the quantity the question asks for and list the useful data. |
| Choose | Select an appropriate relationship and check the units. |
| Calculate | Show the substitution and work through one line at a time. |
| Check | Add the unit and consider whether the size of the answer is sensible. |
A visible target
Choose one goal for a section of the lesson, such as converting units correctly. Keep the target in view while working.
A change of activity
Discuss moving between a diagram, a calculation and an explanation. Agree any breaks around what helps your child rather than following a rigid rule.
Feedback before another page
Review the first example before repeating the method. This can reveal whether an error came from the concept, a missed detail or arithmetic.
A familiar way to start a question can sit alongside varied examples. Your child might practise energy calculations through sport, transport or a household device. The context should help them engage with the physics, while fresh questions check whether they can use the same reasoning elsewhere.
Ask the tutor. Share the board, tier and whether Physics is a separate GCSE or part of Combined Science so they choose the right content.
No. Tutors report their experience, and qualifications vary. Ask for relevant examples and discuss how they would respond when your child needs a different approach.
A free 15-minute introduction lets you discuss a recent question, any useful school strategies and the kind of lesson your child would find manageable.
