Boost your grade from C to A/A*...
Based on 25+ years of A-level Physics teaching, I’ve created the Grade Booster Pack to help you practise the skills that earn top grades.
The FORCE strategy gives you a simple way to turn your physics knowledge into exam marks:
F – Foundations: Units, equations, constants, significant figures
O – Operations: Algebra, graphs, and mathematical control
R – Reasoning: Clear explanations and correct terminology
C – Core Practicals: Data analysis, uncertainties, experiments
E – Exam Strategy: Command words, structure, and timing
Physics A level - complete year 1 course
Taught by an experienced A-Level Physics teacher, this course focuses on what examiners expect, common mistakes, and strategies that lead to higher grades. Through expert video lessons and structured activities, you’ll develop a clear understanding of core Year 1 topics and the problem-solving skills needed for top exam performance.
Topics include Electricity, Waves, Materials, Motion & Mechanics, and Quantum Physics. The course contains around 15 hours of video tuition and 50+ hours of guided activities, with exam-style questions aimed at A/A* level.
Suitable for all major exam boards (AQA, OCR, Edexcel, WJEC), though students should check their specification for exact topic matches.

Sample lesson - projectiles
“Projectile motion is a topic that many A-level students struggle with — but once the key idea becomes clear, the topic starts to make sense.”
This short extract shows how projectile problem can be understood by separating motion into horizontal and vertical components. Clear diagrams and step-by-step reasoning reveal a straightforward method for solving projectile questions and avoiding common mistakes.

Academic rationale
The Grade A Physics teaching approach is built on proven research in cognitive science and educational psychology. Each topic is explained clearly to reduce cognitive load and help students develop a deep conceptual understanding. Step-by-step worked examples guide learners through complex problems, while targeted practice questions and self-testing strengthen memory recall and build confidence through retrieval practice.
Regular quizzes, exam tips, and revision guidance promote effective metacognitive skills — helping students plan, monitor, and evaluate their own progress. This evidence-based approach, supported by research from Sweller, Roediger & Karpicke, and Black & Wiliam, has been shown to significantly enhance understanding, retention, and exam performance. It’s a complete learning system designed to help every student achieve their full potential in A-level Physics.
