Real Student Results
At Physics Made Easy, results are not a marketing claim. They are an audited track record built over 24 years, across hundreds of students from Singapore's most demanding schools.
From Physics Student to NUS PhD & Educator
“You are a great tutor and your patient explanation helps a lot in my understanding of Physics concepts. I completed my PhD in Mechanical Engineering from NUS...”
After mastering Physics under Mr. Chew, Dr. M spent 10 years at NUS (4 yrs UG, 2 yrs Master's, 4 yrs PhD in Mechanical Engineering) and is now following in his footsteps as an educator.

Real stories of cognitive breakthrough and structural grade improvement
HCIS IB Physics — From Humanities Thinking to IB Grade 7
From humanities background, excelling in literature and languages but convinced he was 'not a science person.' Entering IB HL Physics, he was struggling to bridge the gap between narrative thinking and abstract physical reasoning.
Mr. Chew applied the Multiple Intelligences framework — identifying this student's strong linguistic intelligence and using it as an entry point into Physics reasoning. Concepts like electromagnetic induction were first explained through storytelling structures, then formalised mathematically.
He achieved IB Grade 7 — the highest possible score — and went on to pursue Architecture at UNSW Australia. His words: 'Mr. Chew showed me that Physics isn't about memorising — it's about seeing patterns. Once I saw the patterns, the rest came naturally.'
NJC H2 Physics — Fragmented Knowledge to A-Level Distinction
A Junior College student at National Junior College preparing for H2 Physics A-Levels. She had solid foundational knowledge but struggled to link disparate topics — particularly Electromagnetism and Modern Physics — into a coherent understanding.
Mr. Chew rebuilt her mental map of the subject, showing how Quantum Physics, Electromagnetism, and Thermal topics share underlying logical structures. Through structured problem-solving sessions and targeted past-year drills, she developed the ability to approach unseen questions with a clear framework.
She achieved an A-Level Distinction and secured a place on a top-tier medical track. Her parents noted: 'In just months, she learned to link diverse topics like Electromagnetism and Quantum Physics, turning confusion into a cohesive A grade.'
ACSI IP Physics — Academic Dropout to UCLA
This student was described as 'laid-back' — a student with potential who had disengaged from academic work. In the first session, he was failing his IP Physics modules and showed little motivation to improve.
Chess coaching was introduced alongside Physics — not as a distraction, but as a vehicle to re-engage him through strategic thinking. As his chess game developed, his approach to Physics problems changed. He stopped looking for shortcuts and started thinking several steps ahead.
In under a year, he went from failing grades to securing a place at UCLA in the United States. He has since described the chess-Physics combination as the turning point in his academic journey.
