Chemistry tutoring designed for SACE

Stage 1 Chemistry

Year 11

Stage 1 Chemistry introduces you to the fundamental concepts, including structure, bonding, polarity, solubility, acid-base reactions, and redox. These concepts are introduced in the six topics, with the mole concept, stoichiometry and energy calculations introduced gradually throughout each. In your study of these topics, you will develop your understanding of some of the fundamental principles and concepts of chemistry. Science inquiry skills and science as a human endeavour are interwoven through the science understanding.

If you are struggling to understand how to predict the shapes and polarities of molecules, need support in understanding solubility or want to deepen your understanding of galvanic cells, then I can help. Book a session today!

  • Topic 1: Materials & their atoms
  • Topic 2: Combinations of atoms
  • Topic 3: Molecules
  • Topic 4: Mixtures & solutions
  • Topic 5: Acids and Bases
  • Topic 6: Redox reactions

Stage 2 Chemistry

Year 12

Stage 2 Chemistry builds on the principles and concepts learned in Stage 1 Chemistry. Using an inquiry approach, you will extend your science inquiry skills and reinforce your understanding of science as a human endeavour. Science inquiry skills and science as a human endeavour are interwoven through the science understandings, which are organised into four topics.

If you struggle with atomic absorption spectroscopy, LeChatelier’s Principle, drawing organic molecules or understanding electrolytic cells, I can help you immediately. Book a session now!

  • Topic 1: Monitoring the environment
  • Topic 2: Managing chemical processes
  • Topic 3: Organic & biological chemistry

What students and parents say about my tutoring

Dear Mr Lewis,

Thank you so much for your company these three years; it has been a great pleasure for me to be your student. I am not exaggerating to say that I fell in love with the subjects of physics and chemistry because of you. Your classes are always interesting and full of enthusiasm, which inspires me with passion and desire to explore physics and chemistry. Whenever I asked you a question, you always answered me very gently and patiently. You also encouraged me a lot which made me feel valued. Therefore I am very touched by your support and concern. Time goes by so fast; I really can’t bear to say goodbye. In my future study life, I will continue to work hard and make you proud. You are my favourite teacher, and I will always remember you!

Physics and Chemistry Student

Thank you very much for your expertise help this year. You have taught me so much and have always been willing to help. This has been one of the best decisions I have made this year to have you tutor me and it has been a privilege to get to know you. You have enabled me to achieve top marks in all my chemistry assessments which wouldn’t have been possible without your help. I will miss our weekly tutoring sessions as this was the one thing that gave me the confidence I needed to excel this year. I hope everything goes well for you in the future. You are the best science teacher I have ever had.

Meet your chemistry tutor

Hi, I’m Rhys. You might not recognise me, but you’ve probably read one of my books. That’s because I’m the author of about half of the science textbooks in South Australia, including the SASTA Stage 1 and 2 Biology, Chemistry, and Physics Workbooks.

It doesn’t matter who you are, where you’re from, how little – or how much – you already know. My lessons are tailored to you, helping you realise your potential and achieve your goals.

I teach chemistry at various levels, primarily focusing on high school students from years 8 to 11 and 12. I have a deep understanding of different state curriculums, including SACE, so I adapt my lessons to match your specific needs, whether you’re just starting with the basics or diving into more advanced topics.

All lessons are online, so you can join anywhere that suits you. I use a high-tech setup that allows us to go through material effectively. Think interactive whiteboards, live demonstrations, and plenty of visual aids. This format works very well for science subjects like chemistry, biology, and physics because it allows us to review tricky concepts as often as needed. Plus, you get to learn in an environment where you’re comfortable.

Yes, I offer both. One-on-one sessions let us focus on your questions and learning style, which can be helpful if you have particular areas you want to work on. Group sessions, on the other hand, are great if you enjoy learning with others and bouncing ideas around. It depends on what feels suitable for you. I’m flexible with either approach.

No special equipment is necessary. You just need your textbooks, a pen and paper for note-taking, and a desktop computer or laptop with a stable internet connection. I’ll provide the rest, like online resources and learning tools. It’s all about keeping things straightforward so we can focus on the learning.

Yes, it is. I’ve written several textbooks for the South Australian Year 11-12 curriculum, so I understand what’s expected in these courses. I also have access to past exams and plenty of resources to ensure you’re well-prepared.
