Year 11 & 12
Physics rewards students who understand the logic behind the formulas, not just the formulas themselves. Our tutors know how to bridge that gap, turning confusing theory into something your child can actually work with under exam pressure. We focus on the concepts that carry the most marks and make sure nothing is left to guesswork.

QCAA syllabus
Physics is assessed across four units over Years 11 and 12. Every tutoring session at Pythora is aligned directly to this syllabus.
Where students get stuck
Common struggles in Physics
Vector analysis — resolving forces and adding velocity components in 2D
Electromagnetic induction — understanding direction of induced current
Special relativity — applying time dilation and length contraction formulae
Writing structured responses with correct units, significant figures and scientific reasoning
From our tutors
Exam and assessment tips
Always draw a free-body diagram before writing equations for dynamics problems
Quote the relevant physics law before applying it (e.g. Newton's third law)
Check significant figures in every answer — examiners penalise inappropriate rounding
For extended responses: define concept, apply to scenario, conclude with physics principle
What students gain
What to expect from tutoring
Ability to apply concepts to unfamiliar problems
Clear exam technique for calculation questions
Confidence in both theory and practical components
Get started
We will match your child with a tutor who recently completed this subject. A free meet-and-greet session happens before any sessions are booked.
Our approach
Every session maps directly to the Physics syllabus. Nothing taught is irrelevant to what your child is being assessed on.
Our tutors focus on genuine comprehension first. Students who understand the content perform better than students who have only memorised it.
Every Physics tutor at Pythora achieved strong results in this exact subject. They know the QCAA curriculum from the inside.
