    I have experience tutoring the IEB curriculum of this subject and in educating a home school student in stage 3, with the Cambridge curriculum. this subject is one of my personal favorites too tutor, as I like to build models, draw sketches and diagrams and to conduct experiments to keep the students engaged and to help them understand better. I also had this subject up to metric.
