How we teach Chemistry

Concepts are explained with clear diagrams first, then the calculations, then the exact wording the mark scheme accepts.

Practical and data-handling questions are practised every week, because they carry marks that many students drop.

Long-answer questions are planned in class so your child writes complete, mark-earning explanations.

Where students usually lose marks

  • Calculations with units and significant figures
  • Practical and experimental skills questions
  • Explaining in precise key terms
  • Linking ideas across topics

“The paper reviews showed exactly where marks were being lost in O Level Maths and Chemistry, and what to do about it. We had a great experience with Apex Academic.”

Questions parents ask

Do you teach the current AP Chemistry syllabus?

Yes. Lessons follow the board’s current syllabus. We check the specification before planning a course, and we tell you if anything changes.

How many lessons a week does my child need?

Most students do one or two 60-minute lessons a week. In the months before the exam, many add a second lesson for past-paper practice.

Can you help close to the exam?

Yes. Exam-season courses focus on timed practice, the topics that lose the most marks, and marking every paper like the real exam.
