PHYSICS is BORING!?!? Is IT?


Physics is FUN!

That's what I tell my Physics students in Menengah 4 at the beginning of every year. (I'm not trying to 'brainwash' the innocents' minds) Whoever they are, they should understand that first.... 'Huh!?!?', that is my first respond from them. You can just imagine how silly I looked, standing infront of the class where every pairs of eyes focusing hard on me. I had also received a feedback from a teacher once, majority of our students saying that Physics is the least favourite subject according to the survey analysis done by UBD students before on my Menengah 4 students....I felt like some bullets are striking toward me with a sentence written on it, I HATE PHYSICS!

Gosh! Why O Why???? But hey! Wait a minute..... They are just beginning to understand PHYSICS. Oh! O.k. Think positive Hafiz! (Breath in, breath out) What a survey....it is killing my mind, well almost. And making proud of someone's else subject as her subject is chosen to be the most favourite subjects. Stop here! Back to my issue...

What do I expect, the only girls school in my district... I can understand that..even my wife is not in favour of my subject that I teach. Anyway, after a year of studying, these students (happen to be in Menengah 5) have confessed to other teachers that Physics is really FUN and interesting. So it is a matter of how to make it fun basically involved in UNDERSTANDING the topic that I teach and sincerely share with the students.

So folks, how FUNs Physics is up to you. Because you can make a difference.

Physics is fun!
I used to think Physics is way too technical for girl, but when I have further my study on Physics (after all those Physics-videos and daily experiences shared by Sir.Hafiz) ... I have realized that, Physics isn't that complicated. Physics do explain a lots of 'phenomenon' which we have in our daily life :)
Juniors in Sufri Bolkiah, believe me..You girls may soon discover the magics of Physics *in Sir Hafiz's class haha..
