01What we can work on together
Translate a physical situation into a diagram or model. Link forces, motion, energy or circuits to quantities with meaningful units. Sketch the situation and state assumptions before selecting an equation. Estimate the likely scale of the answer, calculate carefully and explain what the result means.
02Match practice to your course
The IEB NSC uses South Africa’s national curriculum. IEB is an assessment body, not a separate national curriculum. Share the current subject assessment guidelines, school outline and exam year when requesting help.
03Make the lesson fit your school work in South Africa
For school support in South Africa, share the CAPS phase, assessment body and language level where relevant. Use the school’s term plan to sequence practice and discuss a realistic routine around homework, connectivity and the next assessment. Bring an attempted question so your tutor can see how you reason, then agree what to practise next.
