Chemistry tutorials
What We Offer
Tailored Curriculum Support: customized support for GCSE, iGCSE, IB, HSC and other exam boards.
Making chemistry intuitive: Turquoise tutorials are designed to help students actually understand chemistry. Memorization has a long and noble academic tradition, but has its limitations in the problem-solving questions that often arise in exams.
Exam Technique & Mastery: Past paper review, marking schemes, and strategies for avoiding common pitfalls.
Online lessons: HKD800 per hour, held over Google Meets
In-person lessons: customized rates depending on location and timing.
The "No-Risk" First Lesson
You will not be invoiced for the first class unless you decide to continue with a second session. If we are not the perfect fit, you walk away with a free lesson and zero obligations.
By the way... why is a sustainability consultancy offering chemistry tutoring?
Chemistry is a crucial part of the underlying understanding of sustainability. Basel's work in corporations often involves getting to grips with infra-red spectroscopy, the carbon cycle and polymer plastic pollution - all topics that appear in the chemistry syllabus.
Real-world climate solutions rely entirely on chemical principles, and will need well equipped scientists to deal with them.
In other words - I am already something of a chemistry teacher to corporates, and extend that offering to students, who will need these skills in their graduate roles!
