Advice on self-teaching Physics

I would like to study A-Level Physics and would greatly appreciate some advice in regards to self-teaching and the resources I should use.


1.

What method do you use to learn and revise for Physics?

2.

What textbooks and revision guides do you use?

3.

Do you use a textbook not on the syllabus or only the exam board endorsed one?


4.

Are there any good free resources available?

5.

What are some good websites/ Youtube Channels?


6.

What other resources do you use?



Thank you for your time!

Bumping since it has been almost 5 days.
1. Well for Physics, the best method in my opinion are past papers.
2. I use the CGP book for quick information and my teacher wrote typed notes for the syllabus, I found the textbook endorsed by the board absolutely disgusting. But that's just me.
3. cyberphysics.co.uk is a good website, there are also some good youtube channels out there. Search A Level electricity physics on youtube, you'll find a video with someone writing on blank paper. He's pretty good. (Forgot his channel name)
4. Ehm nothing really just the notes, CGP book and every single past paper available.

I do AQA A Physics.
