IGCSE Combined Sciences (0653)
Students will develop scientific knowledge and conceptual understanding through the specific disciplines of physics.
ScholarKid provides the foundation for understanding the material world. It is essential that all students are taught essential knowledge, methods and processes in science. A firm understanding of how the complex and diverse phenomena of the natural world can be described using key ideas which are inter-linked and have a universal application.
- the use of conceptual models and theories to make sense of the observed diversity of natural phenomena
- the assumption that every effect has one or more cause
- that change is driven by differences between different objects and systems when they interact
- that many such interactions occur over a distance without direct contact
- that science progresses through a cycle of hypothesis, practical experimentation, observation, theory development and review
- that quantitative analysis is a central element both of many theories and of scientific methods of inquiry.
Your Teacher
Avi is a super friendly and reliable physics and science teacher with 12 years of experience helping students like you understand how the world really works. He’s basically a wizard when it comes to lab experiments and solving tricky math problems — if there’s equipment to set up or numbers to crack, Avi’s your guy.
He’s crazy about physics and always cheers on students who come up with their own science projects (even the wild ones!). If you’ve got an idea, he’ll help you turn it into something amazing.
When he’s not teaching, Avi lives in London with his wife, their three kids, and two mischievous cats. He’s all about adventure and loves kayaking down rivers and hiking up mountains whenever he can.
If you ever need someone who makes science exciting (and a little bit fun), Avi’s the teacher for you!
