Key trends in recent O Level Chemistry examinations
Increased Real-Life Application of Chemistry
Understand Topical Concepts More Deeply
Relate Unfamiliar Scenarios to Concepts
In Chemistry, students are largely tested on their ability to extract information from the relevant chapters to answer questions that may seem unfamiliar at first. In recent years, there has been a shift in the focus towards greater application of knowledge to real-life examples, across all O-Level subjects, and this trend is even more evident in the Chemistry examinations. In order to score a distinction in Chemistry, it is now more important for students to understand their topical concepts more deeply, and learn to relate unfamiliar scenarios to their concepts. This calls for a qualified Chemistry tutor to explain concepts well and instil understanding instead of relying on a pure drill.
In our secondary-level Chemistry tuition programme, we prioritise the application of higher-order knowledge and connecting Chemistry to real-life contexts. Unlike conventional drill and practice methods, our approach at AO Studies is to equip students with the skills and confidence to tackle intricate Chemistry questions while understanding their practical significance.

Student Testimonials For Secondary Chemistry Tuition
What our students say about our programme
I started joining Joseph’s Chemistry class around June in my secondary 3 academic year, and physics class towards the end of my sec 3 year. At that point of time, my Chemistry results was around a c6 in ca1, and an e8 in ca2. At the final year exam for secondary 3, i failed Chemistry by a slight bit, and so Joseph has prepared many intensive lessons during the school holidays to buck up my foundations. Especially for Physics, my grades were an f9 without fail every single time. Rather demoralised and not knowing if i should drop physics, Joseph encouraged me to sign up for his Physics class too. Despite constantly not doing well in school exams for physics, Joseph did’nt give up, and gave extra attention to if i needed help in the questions we were doing in class. He was always willing to stay back after class to attend to my questions if i had any. After a lot of thorough explanations and challenging practices from Joseph, I’ve managed to score a a2 for Chemistry, and a b3 for physics, which i definitely did not expect! Thank you! 🙂

I joined AO studies around april of my secondary 4 year and at that time I’ve been consistently failing my Amath (F9), Chemistry (F9) and Physics (D7) while my Emath barely scraped by with a C6. With O levels in about half a year or so it seemed almost impossible to get decent grades in these subjects until I joined AO studies. The tutors there were extremely dedicated and were willing to take the extra mile for their students. What seemed like an unattainable goal slowly but surely became possible as I passed all four subjects (with an A1 for Emath) during Prelims. Subsequently, with the outstanding efforts and guidance by the various tutors, I attained distinctions for all 4 subjects – Amath, Emath, Physics and Chemistry that i took under AO studies. It was such a blessing to be able to be tutored under AO studies and I really can’t thank the tutors enough. Thank you so much! ^^

I joined AO studies at middle of Secondary 3 after failing my Chemistry with only 25/100 (F9) for the 1st half of the year. After joining the Tuition centre for only 2-3 months, with the help of the teachers i managed to pass my Chemistry paper for the 1st time. Not just for Chemistry, i had also gotten F9s for my A math continuously for the 1st semester. Too after joining the Tuition centre, my results improved tremendously. From a once F9 to an A2, its a really huge improvement that even I found shocking.
The tutors are really helpful as they would invite me back to the tuition centre if i have doubts or problems solving a particular question. Their worksheets are made to be really challenging such that sometimes we do not even have enough time to complete the whole worksheet even with a full 2 hours to do the mere 6 questions or less.
