Scottish curriculum (National 5, Higher, and Advanced Higher) Chemistry

I tutor Chemistry at National 5, Higher, and Advanced Higher level. I can provide help understanding course content, practicing exam questions, and more. If you are thinking about crashing a subject I can help provide a basic level of knowledge which it is extremely beneficial to have when directly entering a subject at a Higher or Advanced Higher level.
The sessions can be completely dictated by what the student feels they need from me or I can take a more structured approach after an initial consultation.
I am a friendly and passionate tutor with a comprehensive understanding of my subject.

About Me

I am a Biochemistry Undergraduate student at the University of St Andrews. I have a passion for chemistry and enjoy encouraging students to fulfil their potential within the subject.
As a student myself I understand the pressures of exams and learning. I wish to provide a tutoring service where the student can choose what the best way for them to learn is and to deliver this for them. I have a comprehensive understanding of my subject and the Scottish curriculum (SQA) and so can deliver exam targeted advice.
I have experience mentoring National 5 students as well as general experience working with young people.

Biology lessons for middle school, high school and college students!
Biology is a powerful science that becomes more and more influential as time passes. Biology allows for us not only to understand the world around us better but also helps us understand what goes on within our own bodies. Having studied Biology at the University of Edinburgh, I am incredibly passionate about the subject. Currently I am pursuing my research Masters degree in Biochemistry, working closely with protein design. I believe research is incredibly thrilling and learning about new research techniques and ideas feels like having a cookbook you can cook something fun and novel out of everyday! I would love to share my passion for Biology with you!

George
Chemistry for students in high school ( this includes IGSCE, AS and A level, IB)
In this class, I am going to teach you the fundamentals of both AS and A level chemistry and build on them to make chemistry as easy as possible for students. I will be using a more practical approach to teach to make what I teach relatable for students.

Raef
Tuition in Math - Physics - Chemistry - Biology
Graduated and Experienced for more than 18 years, I give private lessons in Mathematics - Analysis - Matrices - Statistics - Algebra - Geometry - Physics - Chemistry - Biology, Geology to students of French program of Terminales, patent and secondary or international program IB in English (Grade 8, 9, 10, 11, 12) or entrance exams and medical university preparatory classes or 1st and 2nd university years for the academic year 2022/2023 either at home or by internet online by a very modern and professional method much better than webcam and better than on site. The online method is easily done by a link that serves as a writing board, typing and projection more than Skype or Zoom talking about which we communicate. This method is very modernized and reliable (it's like we are in the same place) for more than 6 years I have been working by this method. The results of my students and in particular the students of Terminale are superb with successes in mention very good and good and sometimes excellent. Homework help for CNED students. For more information, do not hesitate to contact me.

Mohamed
Private chemistry lessons for preparatory classes: PC / PCSI / PSI / BTS / MPSI
Associate professor, I offer individual lessons in chemistry and physics to prepare you for exams. Teaching physics chemistry allowed me to understand the difficulties that students must overcome to learn, especially when it comes to subjects that are still somewhat new. Teaching and providing help in these subjects (chemistry, maths, physics) is my way of being part of society. In these courses, I will provide students with all the tools necessary to learn and master their subjects and teach them how to use them in the job market. Do not hesitate to send me a message for more information. Please tell me the level of the student

Mennatullah
Chemistry Educator | 5+ Years of Experience 🏆 | Expert in International & Local Curricula 🌍 | Nanoengineering Researcher 🇪🇬
As a chemistry teacher, I focus on using modern teaching methods that enhance the role of the student as an active element in the educational process. Since chemistry is a logical scientific branch, I use induction and deduction methods, in addition to brainstorming, and I make sure to include dialogue and discussion during lessons. As a researcher in nanoscience, I seek to develop students' creative and critical analysis skills, which helps them form their own opinions and ideas. I believe in the slogan of Egyptian scientists: “Because every mind makes a difference.” I also work to motivate students internally by stimulating the spirit of competition through educational competitions, games, oral and written tests, as well as practical experiments. I cannot ignore the fun side of chemistry, which is practical experiments. I make sure to apply these experiments as a researcher, whether through live explanation online or by preparing explanatory videos, whether produced by me or from reliable sources such as YouTube.
