GCSE Chemistry Tuition — Enrol Now

Boost your confidence, raise your grades, and finally feel in control of Chemistry. Our GCSE Chemistry tuition combines clear teaching, exam-smart practice, and personalised support so you know exactly what to revise, how to answer, and how to improve every week.

Chemistry becomes much easier when you understand the why, not just the facts. We teach concepts in simple steps, then train you on the exam skills that score marks: calculations, required practicals, and the exact wording examiners reward.

How we teach GCSE Chemistry

Paper 1: Core Chemistry (Atomic Structure, Bonding, Quantitative Chemistry, Chemical Changes, Energy Changes)

1) Atomic Structure & The Periodic Table

What you’ll learn: atoms and isotopes, electron shells, ions, periodic table trends, Group 1/7/0 properties.
How we help:

  • Clear shortcuts for electron configuration and forming ions

  • Trend explanations that actually make sense (reactivity, size, shells)

  • Exam drilling on “explain why” questions using mark-scheme language

2) Bonding, Structure & Properties of Matter

What you’ll learn: ionic/covalent/metallic bonding, giant structures, polymers, nanoparticles, intermolecular forces.
How we help:

  • “Structure → bonding → property” method for 6-mark explanations

  • Comparing substances fast (melting point, conductivity, strength)

  • Practice on tricky graph/data questions (e.g., polymer properties, nanoparticle uses)

3) Quantitative Chemistry (The Maths Bits)

What you’ll learn: relative formula mass, moles, balancing equations, limiting reactants, concentrations, yields.
How we help:

  • Step-by-step mole method you can use on any question

  • Unit confidence (dm³ vs cm³, g vs mol, mol/dm³)

  • Calculator + non-calculator practice to reduce silly mistakes

4) Chemical Changes

What you’ll learn: acids and alkalis, salts, titrations, electrolysis, reactivity series, extraction.
How we help:

  • Titration mastery: method, apparatus, calculations, and evaluation

  • Electrolysis rules made simple (half equations, products, ion movement)

  • Required practical focus: exactly what to write for variables, errors, improvements

5) Energy Changes

What you’ll learn: exothermic vs endothermic, reaction profiles, bond energies, energy transfers.
How we help:

  • Reaction profile diagrams that score full marks

  • Bond energy calculations explained clearly

  • How to compare energy changes with accurate scientific language

Paper 2: Higher Understanding (Rates, Organic, Chemical Analysis, Chemistry of the Atmosphere, Using Resources)

6) Rates of Reaction

What you’ll learn: collision theory, factors affecting rate, catalysts, graphs, required practical.
How we help:

  • Graph confidence: gradients, interpreting curves, spotting anomalies

  • Required practical write-up support (control variables, reliability)

  • Strong “explain” answers using collision theory properly

7) Organic Chemistry

What you’ll learn: crude oil, hydrocarbons, cracking, alkanes/alkenes, alcohols, polymers.
How we help:

  • Naming and drawing structures without confusion

  • Turning mechanisms into easy patterns (not memorised chaos)

  • Exam practice comparing polymers, fuels, and environmental impacts

8) Chemical Analysis

What you’ll learn: pure vs impure, chromatography, flame tests, gas tests, instrumental methods.
How we help:

  • Fast recall sheets for tests (and how to describe results correctly)

  • Data interpretation practice (Rf values, chromatograms, spectra basics)

  • “Planning” questions: what to do, what to measure, how to conclude

9) Chemistry of the Atmosphere

What you’ll learn: Earth’s early atmosphere, greenhouse gases, climate change, pollutants, ozone.
How we help:

  • Balanced evaluation answers (evidence, pros/cons, conclusion)

  • Clear definitions that stop you losing easy marks

  • Exam practice on pollution and atmospheric chemistry questions

10) Using Resources

What you’ll learn: potable water, life cycle assessments, recycling, corrosion, alloys, Haber process, NPK fertilisers.
How we help:

  • Real-world chemistry explained simply (then linked to exam marks)

  • LCA and “evaluate” question structures

  • Calculations and processes practised with past-paper style questions

Common questions

We cover the core GCSE Chemistry content across boards and tailor question practice to your exact exam board and tier.

Yes—lessons are adapted to your tier, and we focus on the highest-return topics for your paper.

Absolutely. We teach a repeatable method for mole questions, concentrations, and yield, and we practise until it feels routine.

Yes—methods, variables, safety, results, calculations, and evaluation. Required practical questions are a major source of marks.

You’ll get short, focused revision tasks and a simple plan so you always know what to work on next.
