Physics tutoring
Online Physics tutoring with every topic taught step by step by GradesPal tutors. Every Grade 10 Physics and Chemistry topic, taught step by step with a GradesPal tutor.

What this subject covers
The GradesPal Grade 10 Physical Sciences subject follows the CAPS teaching plan term by term: waves, sound and light, magnetism, electrostatics and electric circuits in Term 1 and 2, then matter and the kinetic molecular theory, the atom, the periodic table and chemical bonding, the mole and quantitative aspects in Term 2 and 3, and motion in one dimension, vectors and energy in Term 3 and 4. Every lesson explains the idea, works a diagram, then an exam-style problem with a full step-by-step solution, and finishes with past-paper questions and a multiple-choice bank.
