physics teacher

Explains motion, energy

A physics teacher is someone who teaches physics, typically at the secondary school or introductory college level.

The term emphasizes the classroom role rather than research credentials: My physics teacher made thermodynamics actually make sense.

Compare with physicist, which emphasizes the discipline itself rather than instruction.
