H2
PHYSICS TUITION
H2 Physics, an integral subject in Singapore's Junior College (JC) A levels curriculum, plays a vital role in shaping students' understanding of the natural laws that govern physical phenomena. It covers topics such as Mechanics, Wave Motion and Optics, Electromagnetism and Modern Physics, which are fundamental to understanding physical phenomena. It also introduces students to subjects like Quantum Mechanics, Special Relativity and Atomic Physics so that students can appreciate the beauty and complexity of physical laws that govern our universe. H2 Physics is also an important foundational subject for students who wish to pursue further studies in Physics or related Sciences such as Chemistry and Biology. This is because Physics arms them with the necessary skills required to develop their analytical thinking, logical reasoning, and quantitative problem-solving skills. In addition, the knowledge acquired from H2 Physics can also be applied to other relevant concepts of life, making it a valuable subject to study.
However, many JC students often find H2 Physics challenging due to its complex concepts and problem-solving requirements. This is where our specialised H2 Physics tuition at Aspire Thinking comes into play, providing students with the necessary support and guidance to excel in this critical subject when their A Levels come around.

Challenges JC Students Face with H2 Physics
H2 Physics students often face several challenges in their academic journey. Some of them include:
Abstract Content and Heavy Concepts
H2 Physics involves abstract concepts and heavy content, requiring deep understanding and questioning and effective application. In addition, many lessons are taught through lecture videos, which means that communication is one-way, and students are unable to seek out help. Students are thus left to organise and digest vast amounts of information, distinguishing important content for exams by themselves. This can be incredibly challenging as it requires them to spend more time thinking and processing the information than they are used to.
Tutorial Questions are Different from Lecture Samples
Tutorial questions, although valuable for practice, often differ from sample questions encountered in lectures which are generally entry-level standards. This can lead to confusion when attempting to answer tutorial questions. Students may struggle to interpret the wording and apply concepts correctly.
Major Exam Questions Combine Multiple Topics into Questions
Major exams pose questions that integrate multiple topics, testing comprehensive understanding. It can be extremely difficult for many students as they should understand the relationships between these topics to answer the question correctly. Moreover, these question types often require a deep understanding of mathematics (such as trigonometry and calculus) concepts that the class may have yet to cover.
How A Level Physics Tuition Helps
Students with H2 Physics tuition should be able to achieve the following:
-
Apply the concepts of Kinematics equations, Newton’s Laws, Work, Energy and Power equations in both linear and recti-linear motions, the latter being more challenging to some.
-
Understand the concepts of Thermodynamics (1st Law, Gas laws, and Latent Heats of matter) and know how to apply them to questions.
-
Understand the concepts of Wave Phenomena such as polarisation, intensity and principles of superposition while knowing what to apply when solving questions. Principles of superposition have been one of the more challenging topics for many students.
-
Apply the concepts of electricity to solve circuit diagrams. The most challenging part of this would be understanding how a potentiometer works (why are we using it?) and how one can use it when solving questions.
-
Knowing the difference between electromagnetism and electromagnetic induction and their relevant formulae. It’s especially important when solving alternating current questions that involve transformers and half wave rectifiers.
-
Understanding the wave particle duality and the importance of Einstein’s photoelectric effect that addresses the shortfall of wave theory. Students must learn to draw parallels between wave and particle theory while appreciating that they are both sides of the same coin.
-
Have a clear understanding of Nuclear Physics by knowing how to calculate the energy of nuclear reactions from the binding energy of products and reactants. It is also important to understand the meaning of spontaneous random radioactive decay and how the decay constant is applied to determine the mass of reactants.
-
This list continues as there is much more to learning H2 Physics.
