Description

Course Overview

Our Sec 3 Chemistry Tuition lays a strong foundation in the core principles of Chemistry as students begin their O-Level journey. The lessons follow the latest Singapore MOE O-Level Chemistry syllabus, helping students understand abstract concepts through real-life examples and hands-on problem-solving.

By building a solid grasp of basic chemical concepts, students will develop the confidence and analytical skills needed for Sec 4 and the national exams.


Course Content

Students will cover key foundational topics including:

  • Introduction to Experimental Chemistry and Safety in the Lab
  • Measurement and the Particulate Nature of Matter
  • Kinetic Particle Theory and States of Matter
  • Atomic Structure and Chemical Bonding
  • Writing Chemical Formulae and Equations
  • The Mole Concept and Stoichiometric Calculations
  • Acids, Bases and Salts
  • The Periodic Table and Periodic Trends

Each topic is reinforced through guided practice questions, structured notes, and concept-mastery exercises that mirror school assessments.


Learning Outcomes

By the end of the Sec 3 course, students will be able to:

  • Understand and explain fundamental chemical principles clearly.
  • Write balanced chemical equations and perform mole calculations confidently.
  • Apply theory to practical questions commonly tested in O-Level exams.
  • Build strong analytical and reasoning skills to tackle structured and data-based questions.
  • Gain familiarity with experimental setups and safety protocols.


Teaching Method

Our lessons combine concept-based teaching, visual explanations, and step-by-step guided practice.

  • Concept Simplification: Complex ideas are broken down using visual models, analogies, and everyday examples.
  • Active Practice: Regular quizzes, lab demonstrations, and past-year paper drills strengthen exam readiness.
