GCSE Physics Tuition: The students are moving away from circuit diagrams to building circuits with wires and components. This is completely different from the circuit diagram, and although harder to create, it is important to learn the difference between theory and practice.

Bacteria
GCSE Biology Tuition: We want to teach the students about bacteria, but they have never seen them. They look at a cheek cell for the first time and are amazed at what a cell is, but look close, and some of those dots are bacteria—now they get a better idea of scale and of what life is.

Network Testing
A-Level Computing Tuition: The students are learning how to fault-find a network. It should be easy: plug in and go, but the fun comes when firewalls are added, the networks are subnetted, and the students have to communicate between different networks.

GCSE Chemistry Tuition: Chemistry involves quite a bit of calculation but only a few formulae, and most are basic Math, yet students find this one of the hardest parts of Chemistry. Many ask me why they are doing Math in Science - My answer this is why to learn Math

Elastic Collisions
In this video, we examine elastic collisions using the PASCO scientific smartcarts and the Capstone software to graph what happens when two carts collide.
Code-Node
GCSE Physics Tuition: Programming the @pascoscientific code node to become the students' own smartcard so that the students understand the tools they are using rather than just grabbing and using something without understanding what it is, what it does, and, of course, how it works.
