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!

What students and parents
say about my tutoring

Dear Lewis,

Thanks for all the support!

Yurio

Science Student

Dear Mr Lewis,

Thank you so much for teaching us this year; you have made all of the concepts we’ve covered interesting and easily understandable, which has made all of us perform much better than we likely would have without you. Considering we only had a 25% chance of getting you this year, I’d say we’re all very lucky. All the best for the future.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you draft Science as a human endeavour tasks?

Yes, I can provide complete drafting for science as a human endeavour tasks. Whether you require a simple review or a complete draft, get in touch today, and I will help improve the quality of your report before final submission.

Do you draft summative practical reports?

Yes, I can provide complete drafting for summative practical reports. I can review your report and provide feedback that helps you improve the quality and depth of your report before submission.

Do you supply worksheets and other resources?

Yes, I often supply practice questions to help you apply what you have learned in tutorial sessions.

What levels of chemistry do you teach?

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 the (State curriculum name), so I adapt my lessons to match your specific needs, whether you’re just starting with the basics or diving into more advanced topics.

How are the lessons delivered?

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.

Do you offer one-on-one tutoring or group sessions?

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.

Do I need any special equipment or materials?

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.

Is your chemistry tutoring aligned with the SACE curriculum?

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. Whether you’re studying under the VCE, QCAA, HSC, or SACE, our sessions cover what you need to feel confident in your assignments and exams.
