Chemistry tutoring

General, organic and physical chemistry to Matura and IB level, with the stoichiometry and equilibrium work that most students find hardest.

What we actually cover

Chemistry, system by system

Open the one your school follows.

IB Diploma ProgrammeStructure and Reactivity, SL and HL+

Structure 1 — Models of the particulate nature of matter

  • The mole and quantitative chemistry
  • Atomic structure and emission spectra
  • Electron configuration

Structure 2 — Models of bonding and structure

  • Ionic, covalent and metallic bonding
  • Intermolecular forces
  • Shapes of molecules, VSEPR

Structure 3 — Classification of matter

  • The periodic table and periodicity
  • Functional groups and organic families
  • Spectroscopic identification

Reactivity 1 — What drives chemical reactions

  • Enthalpy changes and calorimetry
  • Hess's law and energy cycles
  • Entropy and spontaneity (HL)

Reactivity 2 — How much, how fast and how far

  • Reaction rates and collision theory
  • Equilibrium and Le Châtelier
  • Equilibrium constants (HL)

Reactivity 3 — Mechanisms of chemical reactions

  • Acids and bases, pH calculations
  • Redox and electrochemistry
  • Organic reaction mechanisms

Follows the syllabus first examined in 2025, which reorganised the course into the Structure and Reactivity strands.
