Read my google reviews here

I am an ex RI(JC) physics tutor with more than 15 years of teaching experience.

With my experience teaching in top MOE schools (Raffles Institution, NJC, ACJC, Dunman High) I know what the examiners are thinking when they set an exam question. I have been part of the teams setting and vetting prelim exams in these schools. I CAN confirm this: your teachers use the same old tricks over and over again!

I live by the quote by Albert Einstein, 

"If you can't explain it to a six-year-old, then you don't understand it yourself"

Join me in your journey to Ace your next Physics exam!

Why Choose Aces in the Pocket?

1. Ace your Physics exam with as little effort as possible!

Minimal memorisation + understanding of concepts before blindly substituting numbers into a physics formula to obtain an answer! (admit it, that's what you did in your last physics exam)

News flash: it may have worked in secondary school, but it doesn't work for H2 Physics.

Reason: Physics is one of the LEAST content heavy sciences at the H2 level. Many students score poorly because they memorise many physics formulae and blindly use them without understanding! Many exam questions target such misconceptions (or the lack of any concept) and most often a wrong answer is obtained.

2. Taught by Yours Truly

I am the sole founder, owner, teacher of Aces in The Pocket Learning Centre.

Reason: Other centres may guarantee you an A, but information of their teachers are scarce on their website. How can that be? Perhaps their notes and summaries or worksheets are GOATED, but then, if that was the case, all you needed to do was to buy those notes off carousell at a fraction of their tuition fees.

No, we know that even if the average student was given the world's best and comprehensive physics notes, it would not equate to fully understanding the concepts or learning where your common misconceptions lie. 

The answer lies in the delivery of the concepts in an easy to understand manner, so that you can APPLY these concepts over and over untl it becomes part of you. THEN physics becomes easy to score and almost 2nd nature!

3. No Lock in/Tie down period

No deposits required. Pay at the start of each month, if you feel that the lessons are not to your liking, there is no notice period to serve. 

Reason: I am confident that you will learn and enjoy my physics lessons, I DO NOT collect a large sum of deposit upon registration nor require a few months notice period. I want to teach students who learn well from me (and my teaching style) rather than trapping students in with such practices.

A brief history of Mr Chew

My main point: I understand how many students struggle with the balancing act of academics and CCA commitments. I too have been through that, and I can share with you how with the right thinking and understanding of physics concepts (and a little practice) you CAN score A for physics EASILY.

I graduated from NJC and was the canoeing/dragonboat captain of the school team. I had trainings 6 days a week; every morning before school started (PT training) and every afternoon after school. Saturdays mornings were water trainings at Macritchie Reservoir.

I had to balance my studies, CCA, running the canoe team and organising VIA for the team. But physics was always the subject that I had most joy studying (because there was the least to memorise). I enjoyed math, but physics was on a different level. It brought MEANING to the math I learnt. Numbers and operations can have physical meaning or at least, can be applied to solve real world problems! 

TLDR: I  scored 7 distinctions (PCME GP PW & H3 Physics) in my A levels.

As my students sometimes say: 

Come Learn from the GOAT!
