In chemistry classes, we have a culture of two-way communication. Students do not come in and sit and listen.
Every lesson, as our tutor goes through each lesson’s material, students will be prompted on questions with regards to certain concepts and at the same time, students can ask any question to the tutor.
This allows students to understand what are their gaps and what concepts they have successfully acquired. Practice questions are given weekly after the tutor goes through the concept and students have taken down the relevant notes.

PowerPoint slides customized by our tutor will be provided to all students. Each chapter is broken down into individual concepts supplemented with relevant examples. Through the use of diagrams and concept maps etc., these tools enhances understanding of the concepts. Customized worksheets divided into 3 different levels will also be practiced after going through each topic. Level 1 questions are used to reinforce the concepts taught, level 2 short answer questions focuses on writing keywords in answer and level 3 questions are used to introduce inference and analysis which helps students tackle skills needed in N/O level science.

For H2 Chemistry, the difficulty level increased significantly compared to the O levels. Not only is the depth and breadth of content much deeper and wider, questions are also more complexed and required deeper analysis. To help students tackle H2 Chemistry with ease, our tutor provides concise notes that summarise and highlight the key concepts in the entire syllabus. Along with the notes comes with the weekly practice worksheets that emphasise on applying the concepts to help students tackle questions that require inference and analysis. At the H2 level, practical is also an extremely important component. We provide materials and classes near the practical A levels’ exam to help students revise for their practical too.
