To answer this question, we really need to have some idea what maths and physics is about. A google search on "what is mathematics" gives this first answer:

"Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, theories and theorems that are developed and proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. "

A google search on "what is physics" gave this:

"the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. The subject matter of physics includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms."

So how can tuition help?

Tuition can help students to learn more with less effort and time in a number of ways.

Dr Hock can tailor explanations and examples to the specific needs of students. Different students have different ideas about maths and physics concepts, depending on their personal experiences. A good tutor would be able to identify their misconceptions.

Maths and physics are often thought to be difficult. The reason is that they require us to think in a very logical way. People are not normally used to this, because our emotions often tend to take over our thinking. By using simple examples, Dr Hock will help a student to settle more quickly into a logical way of thinking.

Even after a student has understood a concept, they can very quickly forget it. This is especially so with all the distractions in today's world of Internet and smart phones. Dr Hock would provide problems and exercises that focus on areas where students need improvement.

In a tuition class, students have more time to ask questions. Dr Hock will help to identify conceptual issues a student is having, and give feedback on assignments and practice problems.

Regular sessions with Dr Hock can keep a student motivated, when the student knows that Dr Hock is always there to help.

Dr Hock can teach effective study strategies. By helping the student identify areas of weakness, the student can save precious study time by focusing on those areas.

Dr Hock will help the student prepare for maths and physics exams from the start of the year, or as early as possible. For most students, physics is not an easy topic. Even after learning the concepts and methods, students need time to practise and become skillful at physics. So starting preparation early will always give a student more advantage.
