Olly Wedgwood is a secondary school Science and Maths tutor with over 15 years of teaching experience in both the classroom and on a one-to-one basis.
In 2013, Olly set up GCSEPhysicsNinja.com so that more students could benefit from ‘private’ physics tuition by having access to an online video and ‘flashcard’ tutoring revision system.
For many years, both Olly and his wife Lee-Anne have used this question and answer flashcard system to help their students learn more effectively, and so it was a logical step to create structured video tuition courses around them.
GCSE Physics Ninja revision courses are made up of dozens of carefully designed Question and Answer flashcards. Students copy each question onto an index card and then use it as the focus for their physics revision by following a simple four-step process:
1. Research a possible answer to the flashcard – using school text books, the internet and other sources.
2. Check the correct answer by watching the video tutorial (2-5 minutes duration)
3. Write the Answer on the back of the flashcard.
4. Test yourself 2 or 3 times on the flashcard question over the next few weeks.
Each day, more and more students across the UK (and internationally) are using GCSE Physics Ninja as their own virtual ‘classroom’ to aid their GCSE physics revision. There are hundreds of GCSE video tutorials by Olly Wedgwood that are designed to cover exactly what their physics course requires.
