How to judge any physics teacher before you pay
- Ask for the syllabus code they teach. 0625, 0653, 9702 and 4PH1 are different exams with different mark schemes.
- Ask how they teach a six mark written answer. Most students lose their grade in the writing, not in the arithmetic.
- Ask whether you get the past papers and the mark schemes, and whether your own written answers get marked and returned.
- Ask whether the classes are recorded, and what happens when a school test clashes with a lesson.
- Ask to speak to a student who sat the exam last session. A teacher confident in their results will let you.

Who is the best IGCSE physics teacher in Egypt?
There is no official ranking, and any teacher who tells you they are number one is asking you to take their word for it. Judge it yourself on four things: does the teacher cover your exact syllabus code, do they teach from real past papers with the mark schemes, do they mark your written answers and show you where the marks are lost, and can you talk to their current students. Eng. Ahmed Sherif (Shefo) has taught over 2,000 IGCSE and O Level physics students since 2019, and around 90 percent of them finish with an A* or an A.
How do I choose an IGCSE physics tutor in Egypt?
Check the syllabus code first. Cambridge IGCSE and O Level Physics is 0625, Combined Science is 0653, AS and A Level Physics is 9702, and Pearson Edexcel International GCSE Physics is 4PH1. A teacher who covers one is not automatically good at another. Then ask to see how they teach a written six mark question, because that is where most grades are lost, not in the calculations.
Does Shefo teach Edexcel as well as Cambridge?
Yes. Cambridge IGCSE and O Level Physics 0625, Cambridge Combined Science 0653, Cambridge AS and A Level Physics 9702, and Pearson Edexcel International GCSE Physics 4PH1.
Are the classes online or in person?
Both. Classes run in Cairo and live online for students across Egypt and the Gulf. Every online class is recorded, so a clash with a school timetable does not cost you the lesson.
Which countries do students join from?
Egypt first, and then Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman. Saudi Arabia is the largest group outside Egypt. Online sessions are timed for Gulf evenings.
Do I have to pay to use the past papers?
No. The full Cambridge and Edexcel past paper library, every question paper with its mark scheme from 2016 to today, is free and needs no account.
What are the qualifications behind the teaching?
Eng. Ahmed Sherif holds a BSc in Mechatronics Engineering from the Arab Academy for Science, Technology and Maritime Transport. He has taught at Saint Fatima School in Suez, Concord International School in Cairo, Coursatee Education Center in New Cairo and Madinaty, and Majd School, alongside running Shefo Squad since 2019.
