Students seldom drop IGCSE Physics marks on the big ideas. The losses are smaller and more frequent: a Supplement equation that was never memorised, a table of readings with no units, a "describe" answer handed in for an "explain" question, or a practical paper built around equipment the student has barely touched. Cambridge families in Jaipur are fewer than CBSE or RBSE families, so it pays to ask specifically for someone who knows the 0625 papers and will chase those details week after week. Below: the 0625 syllabus for the 2026–2028 series, its papers and tiers, a comparison with the physics a CBSE or RBSE student covered in Class 10, the practical component, and how tutors reach each zone. Related pages are our physics home tutors in Jaipur guide and the IGCSE tutors in Jaipur hub.
Cambridge's December 2025 update to the syllabus for 2026, 2027 and 2028 says nothing in it significantly changes teaching. Each candidate takes three components:
Overall, half the credit is for knowing and understanding, 30 percent for using information and solving problems, and 20 percent for experimental skill. A calculator is permitted in every component, which shifts the marks onto how a calculation is set out: the formula, the numbers put in, the result, and its unit.
On Core the available grades run from C down to G; on Extended, from A* down to G. Cambridge recommends Extended for anyone likely to achieve at least a C. Most schools fix the tier during Grade 9 or at the start of Grade 10. An Extended student needs the Supplement material taught directly in each topic, extra equations included, and plenty of the longer Paper 4 questions. Moving a Core student up is possible: list every Supplement statement, teach and test each one, and collect Extended-standard work for the school, beginning two terms or more before the entry deadline.
A student who joins a Cambridge school from an Indian board brings some physics with them. The Rajasthan Board's current Class 10 science syllabus, taught from the NCERT book, gives physics four chapters: light (reflection and refraction), the human eye and the colourful world, electricity, and magnetic effects of current. Set against the six 0625 topics, the picture looks like this:
| 0625 topic | Class 10 NCERT chapters touch it? | Where students usually stumble |
|---|---|---|
| Motion, forces and energy | No | Reading distance and speed graphs; impulse and momentum (Extended); liquid pressure |
| Thermal physics | No | Particle-model explanations; specific heat capacity; precise words for conduction and convection |
| Waves | Partly: light, lenses and the eye | Freehand ray diagrams; total internal reflection; where each part of the electromagnetic spectrum is used |
| Electricity and magnetism | Partly: circuits and magnetic effects | Potential dividers; induction and transformers |
| Nuclear physics | No | Half-life from data; balanced decay equations |
| Space physics | No | Orbital motion, how stars evolve, and (Extended) evidence that the universe is expanding |
So a newcomer is usually stronger in optics and circuits than in mechanics or thermal physics, and has not met the space topic in Class 10 at all. A tutor's first job is a written audit against the syllabus, then teaching the missing topics before past papers.
The syllabus says "recall and use" for many equations, so students must know them without a formula sheet. We ask tutors to draw up, early in Grade 9, a single sheet of every equation the syllabus names, each with its units, and to quiz it fortnightly. The command words, which Cambridge publishes in the syllabus, need the same treatment: "state" wants a fact, "describe" wants what happens, "explain" wants why, "suggest" wants a reasoned idea for an unfamiliar case, and "calculate" wants working.
| Habit | Marks it protects |
|---|---|
| Convert mA, kJ or cm to SI units before substituting | Calculation marks lost to unit slips |
| Answer "explain" with a "because" that links to particles, forces or energy | Explanation marks lost to plain description |
| A short glossary test each fortnight | Marks lost by mixing up mass and weight, or heat and temperature |
| Graphs checked for labels, units, scale and a smooth line | Easy marks on the theory and practical papers |
Cambridge designs the two options to be interchangeable: the skills and settings match, and Paper 6 simply has the student reason about an experiment instead of carrying it out. The syllabus names the settings. Students should expect to measure length, volume, force, tiny distances and brief time intervals with suitable precision; work with springs and balances; time moving objects and swinging pendulums; follow a heating or cooling curve; wire up circuits to read current and p.d.; and trace light with pins, mirrors, prisms, lenses and transparent blocks.
Most of the marks are for planning and recording, which need no laboratory: naming the variable that is changed and the one that is measured, explaining how the rest are held constant, picking a sensible range and number of readings, heading table columns with units, choosing a graph scale, and criticising the method. Simple kit such as a pendulum timed with a phone, or a spring loaded with a few weights, costs little, is safe, and makes written practical questions concrete. The planning question in particular should be practised until it feels automatic.
Forty questions in 45 minutes leaves just over a minute each, with no partial credit. For calculations, work the answer out before reading the options, since wrong options are often the results of common slips. For concepts, cross off any option that contradicts a principle you are sure of. After every practice paper, log the topic of each wrong answer; that log tells the tutor what to reteach.
| Zone and locality | Usual route | Before the first visit |
|---|---|---|
| North: Sikar Road | Scooter or auto along the highway; Orange Line stops at Harmada and Todi Mod are planned, not open | Say which end of the corridor you live on; townships register visitors at the gate |
| East and south-east: Bajaj Nagar | Between Tonk Road and the airport road, so tutors from Malviya Nagar or Durgapura avoid the old city | Share a landmark on your inner lane; market roads fill in the evening |
| West: Sodala, Ajmer Road | Ram Nagar and Civil Lines Pink Line stations for Sodala; outer Ajmer Road townships suit a tutor living nearby | Allow spare time; Ajmer Road is heavy at peak hours |
| South-west: Gopalpura Bypass | By road; Durgapura and Gandhinagar are the nearest stations | Late-evening or weekend slots avoid the daytime student crowd |
| South: Durgapura | Its own railway station; Tonk Road and the airport road for tutors by car or scooter | Flats may ask the tutor to register at the gate |
Every locality is listed on the Jaipur home tutors page.
Screens cope well with marking past papers, multiple-choice drills and theory questions, and an online search reaches tutors who actually know 0625, which the city hub says matters most for IGCSE. Face-to-face time is better spent on ray diagrams, plotting graphs by hand and small experiments with real objects. Many families split the week that way: one visit at home for drawing and practical work, one online slot for papers, both with the same tutor.
| When | Work | Per week |
|---|---|---|
| Opening term of Grade 9 | Gap audit for newcomers; motion, forces and energy; equation sheet started | One |
| Remainder of Grade 9 | Heat and waves; the first written practical questions | One |
| Grade 10 until the mocks | Electricity, magnetism, nuclear and space; every Supplement statement ticked off for Extended | One, sometimes two |
| Last months before the series | Full papers for the correct tier under time; a practical paper every week | Two |
Cambridge examines in June and November, and schools in India can also enter in March, so the final-months row moves with your child's series.
An Extended grade prepares a student well for DP Physics, where handling data and uncertainty becomes the main challenge; see the IB physics tutor in Jaipur page. A student moving to a Class 11 course on an Indian board should expect a more mathematical treatment; our Class 11 physics page describes it.
Across NXTutors, most home-tuition sessions fall between ₹800 and ₹2,500 an hour; Classes 11–12, IB/IGCSE and JEE/NEET sit toward the upper end; specialists for IB HL or JEE Advanced can charge more. Every tutor names their own rate, and you see it on the profile before booking; our pricing guide and the post on home tuition fees in Jaipur explain what moves it.
Send the grade, tier, practical paper, exam series, your colony and the times you can offer. Two or three matched tutors come back; one gives a free demo class, and moving to a different tutor later costs nothing. Tutors who join go through an ID check. You can also look through tutor profiles, or read our Jaipur pages for IGCSE maths and IB and IGCSE chemistry.

Tier, travel and the number of weekly sessions shape the fee, which each profile shows before the demo.
Three: a 40-question multiple-choice paper (Paper 1 Core or Paper 2 Extended, 30 percent), an 80-mark theory paper (Paper 3 or Paper 4, 50 percent), and one practical paper chosen by the school, either Paper 5, the Practical Test, or Paper 6, the Alternative to Practical, worth 20 percent.
Class 10 NCERT physics, which RBSE also prescribes, covers light, the eye, electricity and magnetic effects. IGCSE adds motion, forces and energy, thermal physics, nuclear physics and space physics, plus Supplement content on Extended. A tutor should audit these gaps against the 0625 syllabus first, then teach them before past papers.
Paper 5 and Paper 6 test the same skills: identifying variables, controlling others, recording readings in tables with units, plotting graphs and evaluating the method. A tutor works through real practical questions and can use safe items, such as a pendulum and a phone stopwatch, so the experiments described on paper feel familiar.
Often, if you start early. Core allows grades C to G and Extended A* to G. The tutor lists every Supplement point, teaches and tests it topic by topic, and builds Extended-paper work for the school, which makes the entry decision. Begin at least two terms before entries close.
Yes, for most of the course. Mark-scheme work, multiple-choice practice and theory questions run well on a shared screen, and online widens the choice of tutors who know 0625. Ray diagrams, graph drawing and simple experiments are easier in person, so many families keep one home session alongside online ones.
Yes. We send two or three matched tutors with each fee shown, and you pick one for a free demo on your child's current topic. If the fit is wrong, the next matched tutor gets a free demo too, and switching tutor later in Grade 9 or 10 is also free.
