Product Description

Physics is frequently one of the hardest subjects for students to tackle because it is a combination of two of the toughest subjects for most students: Math and Word Problems.

If you understand the math but don't do well in word problems then you will have trouble. And if you understand the word problem but have no idea where to begin with the math, again, you will not do well.

The Ultimate Physics Tutor is a complete Physics course that begins at the very beginning assuming the student has never seen a physics equation. The course then proceeds to introduce new topics in an easy-to-understand fashion.

The course is a 2 DVD series, 11 full hours in duration, and contains 24 chapters of material so you can be assured that all of the core topics are covered in detail.

What sets this DVD apart from the rest is that the concepts are taught entirely through example problems. The easiest way to learn Physics is to work problems as you learn the material - and that is exactly what this 2 DVD series provides.

You will immediately improve your problem-solving skills which will help on homework and exams, and you will have a reference for many of the commonly asked problems in Physics.

If you have a problem with your homework, simply find a similar problem fully worked on the Ultimate Physics Tutor!

Everyone taking their first physics course or needing a brush up on elementary physics would benefit tremendously from viewing this masterpiece. I know I did! In a beautifully minimilist setting (just a talking head with a 3-foot whiteboard), you watch Jason Gibson solve all the basic problems in a style that is personal and light-hearted yet never infantile. It is great fun to watch and really educational. If I could, I'd give it 10 stars.

I already own the Calculus Tutor course by the same author, so I decided to give this one a try for my Physics class. It is done in the same style, so if you like the other DVDs in the series you will love this one. Just as before, all of the topics are taught by working example problems so you really get some practice in how to set up and solve the problems you'll encounter in class and on the test.

The best thing about this DVD set is that it covers so much. It is much, much more comprehensive than anything else I have been able to find. And on top of that, every topic that is covered is covered in enough detail to really help you out in class. Too many times I have found that videos like these just scratch the surface and just introduce the topic without going into any detail - not so with this physics tutor.

If you are looking for a good DVD to help you out with understanding your Physics lecture and give you some guidance in working your homework problems then I believe that this DVD will help just about anyone out there.

This review is from: The Ultimate Physics Tutor - 11 Hour Course! - 2 DVD Set! - Learn By Examples! (DVD)

Great teacher that takes the time to explain the little things that trip you up. One thing that always got me was the sign conventions. Should positive be "up" or "down"....and all that stuff. This DVD really shines because through working all of the problems little things like this become clear. And the "little things" are usually the ones that cause me to screw up the problems. This DVD series is an absolute steal for what it provides to the student!
