I have a PhD in physics and I am used to teaching physics from secondary level to university level.
I believe the physics concepts that are taught in secondary school up until entry level of university are not that complex in itself, but they rather requiere a certain mental lense to look at them. So I figure out through questions how the students think about a topic and guide them mentally to different perspectives. Quite often I heard from various students of mine express in disbelief something similar as: "But that seems very easy!?"
Yes, I teach students with very different levels of previous knowledge. This is no problem for me as I guide my lessons a lot through questions to the student to figure out what is already known and where the student struggles. We than build up bit by bit from ground to reach a solid foundation of understanding.
As I have an interactive class the student provide me the learning material they are working with and we follow their material.
As answered in the previous questions I have an interactive class. It's not just the student asking, but it's a conversation where I ask back. This way I figure out quickly where the individual student is struggling to help them in their actual pain points.
With the interactive classes that seem more like a conversation students have an easy time with me engaging with the topics. I don't just explain the concept but I relate it to everyday life and where we encounter these concepts (even though we may not be aware). My experience is that my students start enjoying physics, maths, and science overall.
