What We Cover in AS Level Chemistry
Our tuition is designed around the key topics covered in the AS Chemistry curriculum and aligns with the National Curriculum and exam specifications.
-
Atomic Structure and the Periodic Table
We explain subatomic particles, electron configurations, ionisation energies, and periodic trends — essential building blocks for further learning.
-
Bonding and Structure
Tutors cover ionic, covalent, and metallic bonding, along with shapes of molecules and intermolecular forces. These topics are supported with clear diagrams and interactive discussions.
-
Energetics
Students learn about exothermic and endothermic reactions, enthalpy changes, Hess’s Law, and calorimetry. We break down each concept step-by-step to ensure full understanding.
-
Chemical Calculations and Quantitative Chemistry
We provide intensive support for mole calculations, empirical formulas, gas volumes, and reacting masses — often a major challenge at AS level.
-
Redox and Electron Transfer
Lessons include oxidation numbers, redox reactions, and balancing equations — foundational skills for further chemistry study.
-
Kinetics and Rates of Reaction
We help students explore how temperature, concentration, catalysts, and surface area affect reaction rates, supported by real-life examples and graphical analysis.
-
Chemical Equilibria and Le Chatelier’s Principle
Our tutors explain equilibrium concepts in closed systems and how to apply Le Chatelier’s Principle — a key exam topic.
-
Organic Chemistry (AS Level)
We introduce students to hydrocarbons, alcohols, halogenoalkanes, and reaction mechanisms — essential for understanding the basics of organic chemistry.
-
Required Practicals and Data Handling
We guide students through practical techniques, error analysis, and interpretation of lab results — ensuring they meet both knowledge and skills-based criteria.
Building Confidence in AS Chemistry
Many students find AS Chemistry overwhelming due to the volume of content and the precision required in answers. That’s why we focus not just on delivering knowledge, but on helping students feel confident applying it.
We use relatable examples, structured exercises, and exam-style practice to boost performance in both theoretical and practical components. Tutors also help build skills in scientific writing, time management, and critical analysis. With consistent support, students begin to approach Chemistry with greater interest, understanding, and accuracy.
