How much do you charge for 1:1 tuition?
I do not offer 1:1 tuition at this time.
My son/daughter is studying IGCSE Physics. Do you cover that?
Yes. The GCSE sessions cover IGCSE as well, and any other equivalent qualifications. Similarly, the A Level sessions are appropriate for the Scottish Highers, and other equivalent qualifications.
How do you cover all of the course in one year?
The short answer is, I don’t. These are tuition sessions, they are not lessons. During these sessions, I support tutees with problems they have and help them improve, but it is not my intention in these sessions to deliver the whole course as a substitute for real teaching.
Go to the calendar to see the plan for what topics I intend to support tutees with and when (Click “more details” on each event to see what the topic is). Of course, if tutees want help with something else, we can cover that instead. The plan is not rigid. I am here to help.
How much do your weekly sessions cost?
Go to https://physicswithkeith.com/join to see prices and to enrol. Enrolment grants access to the enrolled tutees’ pages, which are where the live sessions take place. There are also resources on those pages to help tutees with their Physics work.
Do you cover the [XXXXX] exam board?
I have experience teaching Excel IGCSE Physics, Cambridge IGCSE Physics, AQA GCSE (9-1) Physics, and AQA A-Level Physics. I have experience tutoring the other courses as well. There is a tremendous overlap between the courses different exam boards offer, because physics is so universal.
What day are your tutorial sessions?
Physics and astronomy sessions are usually on Sundays. See the calendar for more details
What time are your tutorial sessions?
The default times are 9:30-10:20am for the GCSE Physics sessions, 10:30-11:20am for the A-Level Physics sessions, and 11:30-12:20pm for the GCSE Astronomy sessions. Unless otherwise advertised, sessions take place on Sundays during term time. See the calendar for more details.

I registered with my own email address, how can my child access the sessions?
The easiest way is to log on to the website using your email address on your child’s device. Alternatively, on the log on page, you can choose to send yourself a link to log on. Forward that link to your child so that they can log on using it. Unfortunately, WordPress accounts are non-transferable.
How can I cancel my enrolment?
Enrolment can be cancelled by going to www.wordpress.com and logging on with the email address you used to register. From there, you can find and manage your subscriptions. Instructions are here: https://wordpress.com/support/recurring-payments/#how-do-i-cancel-a-recurring-payment
Can I get a refund?
Payments are received through Stripe, who charge a fee for all transactions. I cannot give refunds because I would still be liable to pay the fee for both transactions (the original and the refund).
May I join the GCSE class at 9:50am?
Of course you may. The GCSE Physics sessions start at 9:30am (UK time), but they are all recorded so you can watch them back – although you will not be able to interact with a recording. A-Level Physics sessions start at 10:30am (UK time) and GCSE Astronomy sessions start at 11:30am (UK time)
How do I access your tuition sessions?
Go to https://physicswithkeith.com/join to find out how to sign up.
How do your tuition sessions work?
I broadcast live using YouTube Live. Tutees watch the broadcast. During the broadcast there is a Live Chat, which is embedded in the live stream. They can type messages there, and I can see them and respond to them. They can also access an interactive whiteboard online, which I can see. Each tutee has a separate whiteboard, and the only people who can see the tutee’s whiteboard is the tutee and myself – not the other tutees. This way, tutees can give answers or ask questions and only I can see, so they need not feel embarrassed about getting things wrong. Before the next session, the whiteboard is erased, so there is no record of their mistakes. People learn by making mistakes, so tutees are encouraged to join in and interact live, during the session.
The sessions are recorded and enrolled tutees can watch the recordings back at any time, but there is no substitute for receiving feedback during the session itself.
How do I ask you questions?
Tutees can ask questions using the YouTube Live chat or on the whiteboard during the sessions.
Here’s a question [sends a question], can you please answer it for me?
In my experience, these requests tend to come with a sense of urgency from the person sending them. After a little probing, it usually (almost always) transpires that the individual is doing some sort of assessment and wants me to help them cheat. There are two crimes in academia that are unforgivable: plagiarism and fraud. I will never help people cheat, and I would take a very dim view of anyone who did.
Sometimes you use images that you have not created. Are you committing plagiarism?
I take care to use images, video and audio clips that are under the Creative Commons license or are royalty free and copyright free. I have contacted the major exam boards to seek permission to show clips from exam papers, and I have permission to show software such as VPLab. If I accidentally present something that you own the copyright for (perhaps, for example, I got it from somewhere that claimed it was under the Creative Commons license, but it wasn’t), then please just let me know and I’ll happily remove it. I am taking all steps to try to ensure I do not plagiarise and I am not trying to profit by stealing other people’s work.
How can I get hold of the resources you make and use?
Enrolled tutees can get access to the resources via the secured areas of this website. Others who wish to use my resources will have to contact me. If there’s sufficient interest, I’ll set up a shop here.
Can you ring me please so we can discuss tuition?
No, I do not make phone calls. I am happy to discuss tuition via email though.
Would you like me to design your website for you?
No thank you.
Would you like me to help you with SEO?
No thank you.
Would you like to join my tutoring agency?
No thank you.
I cannot afford the group sessions. Can you help?
Yes. Contact me here and we can discuss it.
