Questions
GCSE & IGCSE Chemistry: Frequently Asked Questions
My Child Struggles With Moles. Can You Help?
Yes. Moles are one of the most common stumbling blocks. We start from the basics and build up with worked examples until the method feels routine.
Do You Teach Separate Chemistry or Combined Science?
Both. Separate (Triple) Science Chemistry has its own GCSE. Zainab also teaches the full Combined Science course.
Do You Cover IGCSE Chemistry?
Yes. Cambridge IGCSE (0620) and Edexcel IGCSE are very close to GCSE, and lessons follow the exam board's official list of topics.
Can You Help With the Required Practicals?
Yes. We go through each required practical, what it shows and how it is asked about in the exam.
