Mr Baarath Ram
Founder & Chief Master Trainer
Mr Baarath Ram holds a Higher Education Teaching Certificate from Harvard University and a Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical) from the National University of Singapore (NUS). He is also the author and editor of multiple Physics guidebooks and textbooks used by educational institutions across Singapore. Through these publications and his work as an educator, his structured approach to Physics has benefited students nationwide.
With more than 20 years of teaching experience, Mr Ram has established a reputation as one of Singapore’s most sought-after Physics tutors. He has taught across an exceptionally broad academic spectrum, including H1, H2 and H3 Physics, the IB Diploma Programme, Pre-U Cambridge, AS Level, O Level, IP, GEP, SMTP, Senior Physics Olympiad and NUS Year 1 Physics. His ability to teach effectively across such diverse levels reflects his exceptional subject mastery, intellectual depth and pedagogical expertise.
Mr Ram is renowned for transforming complex Physics concepts into clear, logical and manageable steps. Every lesson is deliberately structured to ensure that students develop a strong command of fundamental principles before progressing to more demanding applications. Rather than encouraging students to memorise isolated formulas, he trains them to recognise the underlying Physics, identify the relevant principles and construct precise, logically sound solutions.
Drawing upon two decades of teaching and examination experience, Mr Ram shares valuable insights into common examination traps, subtle phrasing cues and recurring question patterns that students often overlook. He teaches students how marks are awarded, where precision is essential and how seemingly minor lapses in reasoning, presentation or terminology can cost valuable marks.
To strengthen retention and recall under examination pressure, Mr Ram develops purposeful mnemonics and structured answering frameworks that help students organise complex ideas efficiently. These systems give students a repeatable and reliable approach to tackling unfamiliar questions, allowing them to work with greater clarity, accuracy and confidence.
Beyond helping students master Physics content, Mr Ram equips them with practical examination strategies and disciplined problem-solving habits that extend far beyond the classroom. His ultimate goal is not merely to help students obtain the correct answer, but to develop independent thinkers who can approach challenging problems with clarity, control and composure.

Mr Ameen Dewan
Physics Specialist
As an NTU major in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Mr Ameen Dewan possesses a strong passion for Physics and analytical problem-solving. Having achieved a perfect score of AAAA at A Levels (H2 PCME), alongside a Distinction in H3 Chemistry, he combines strong academic excellence with a deep understanding of scientific concepts and their real-world applications.
An accomplished and award-winning student, Mr Ameen was awarded a Silver Award at the Singapore Physics Olympiad 2023, demonstrating advanced problem-solving abilities beyond the standard curriculum. He has also received prestigious offers such as the NTU CN Yang Scholars Programme Scholarship and the NUS College of Design and Engineering Master’s Award.
With over two years of experience teaching O Level and A Level Physics, as well as coaching JC students for Olympiad competitions, Mr Ameen adopts a structured and engaging teaching approach that emphasises conceptual clarity and logical thinking. He guides students to identify key Physics principles, break down complex questions into manageable steps, and develop confidence in tackling challenging exam questions independently.
Believing that students learn best when lessons are both engaging and intellectually stimulating, Mr Ameen encourages active participation through guided discussions, targeted questioning, and step-by-step problem analysis. Through his supportive and methodical teaching style, he aims to help students build both competence and confidence in Physics.
