JC & IB CHEMISTRY TUITION CENTRE In Singapore That achieves consistent and desirable results

Chemistry is often called the central science because of its connection with the life sciences, pharmaceutical sciences and applied sciences such as medicine and engineering. At the pre-university level, a chemistry course would involve concepts in Physics, Mathematics & Biology.

As such, many students find the Chemistry subject to be one of the most challenging. They often have problems applying, internalising, and integrating concepts across topics. Some students seek Chemistry tuition only when their grades start to decline. We recommend getting additional support as early as possible before your struggle with complex Chemistry concepts (especially organic chemistry) becomes overwhelming.

With JC Chemistry tuition, our tutor will help you see the whole forest above the trees. Help and support are extended beyond the classroom through online or WhatsApp consultation.

We also offer online chemistry tuition for students who prefer flexible, self-paced learning.

H1 Chemistry students do not take practical examinations. Secondly, topics such as electrochemistry, thermodynamics are not tested in H1 Chemistry while Polymer Chemistry & Nanomaterials are taught for H1 but not H2. The format of the papers are different as well (see Table below)

However, Students who take H1 Chemistry may not qualify for certain Science-related courses in the University.

Usually the percentage of H1 students varies between 3-10 % of the cohort depending on the Junior College. Syllabus details and format of Papers can be found at the link below.

Written papers have an average mark/time ratio of 1.5 mins (i.e. you have only 1.5 min per mark), while for multiple choice questions in Paper 1, it’s 2 min per question.

Time management is of the essence and one of the value-add of joining the class is that you will be given much practice & guidance on how to manage your time effectively in preparation for, as well as during the exam.
