Our proven success rate speaks for itself, with most of our students improving by at least two grade boundaries within three months of starting tuition. We focus not just on memorising facts, but on building a deep understanding of chemical principles that will serve you well beyond exams. Our comprehensive approach combines visual demonstrations, practical applications, and strategic exam preparation to ensure you're fully equipped for success.
Atomic Structure and Bonding
Explores the structure of atoms (protons, neutrons, electrons), electron arrangements, and how elements form ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds. Covers electron shells, dot-and-cross diagrams, and how bonding determines material properties.
States of Matter
Covers the particle arrangement and behavior in solids, liquids, and gases. Examines phase transitions (melting, boiling, condensation), the particle model, and how kinetic energy relates to temperature and state changes.
Chemical Changes
Focuses on reaction types including neutralization, precipitation, and redox reactions. Explores acid-base chemistry, pH scale, metal reactivity series, and how to balance chemical equations to show conservation of mass.
Energy Changes
Details how energy is transferred during reactions through bond breaking (endothermic) and formation (exothermic). Includes energy profile diagrams, activation energy concepts, and calculating energy changes using bond energies.
Rate of Reaction
Investigates how concentration, temperature, surface area, catalysts, and pressure affect reaction speeds. Covers collision theory, measuring reaction rates, and interpreting reaction rate graphs.
Organic Chemistry
Introduces carbon-based compounds and their structures, including alkanes, alkenes, alcohols, and carboxylic acids. Covers naming conventions, structural isomerism, combustion, and substitution/addition reactions.
Chemical Analysis
Teaches methods for identifying pure substances and mixtures through chromatography, flame tests, precipitation reactions, and instrumental techniques. Includes qualitative tests for gases and ions.
Earth's Resources
Examines the chemistry of resource extraction and processing, including metal ores, crude oil fractions, and sustainable alternatives. Covers the environmental impact of extraction methods and recycling processes.
Quantitative Chemistry
Develops skills in chemical calculations including relative formula mass, moles, empirical formulas, percentage yield, atom economy, and concentration. Emphasizes balanced equations for stoichiometric calculations.
Electrolysis
Explains the breakdown of ionic compounds using electricity, including electrode processes, half equations, and practical applications in metal extraction and purification. Covers preferential discharge of ions and predicting products.
