S1 & S2 Content Mastery Course

Become Great At Tackling Questions on “Atoms, Ions & Molecules”!

What Your Child Will Learn

During this 2-day content-packed masterclass, we’ll work closely with your child to improve his/her answering techniques to tackle questions on the topic of Atoms, Ions & Molecules.

🧱 Understand Key Science Concepts From This Topic

✅  Learn how to read the periodic table of elements skilfully: Identify the number of electron shells and valence electrons based on Periods & Groups & learn more about noble gases.

✅  Learn the structure of Atoms, Ions & Molecules (… we’ll also compare the 3 types of sub-atomic particles and how to interpret nuclear and periodic table notations.)

✅  Understand how to derive the number of sub-atomic particles using formulas (… we’ve made it extremely simple with worked examples and step-by-step guides!)

✅  Compare the similarities & differences between isotopes (… plus learn how to derive the relative atomic mass of an element based on isotopes)

✅  Understand how to draw & write the electronic configuration of an atom, a cation and anion (… we’ll also cover the step-by-step method of creating a ‘dot and cross’ diagram.)

✅  Discover how ionic and covalent bonds are formed.

✅  Learn how to name & write the chemical formula of ionic compounds and molecules (… it is also important to know how to derive the type of elements as well as the ratio of atoms from the chemical formula.)

 

🚀 Valuable Examination-centric Resources To Accelerate Understanding

Your child will NOT leave this workshop empty-handed.

Not only will our Secondary Science Specialists take your child through the step-by-step process of tackling Atoms, Ions & Molecules questions, we’ll also provide your child with beautifully-illustrated notes, worksheets and worked examples that are designed to help students learn this Chemistry topic easier, better and faster.

These valuable resources will help to shorten the learning curve tremendously. You and your child can expect to save lots of valuable time and frustration trying to figure out what examination setters are looking out for.

Here’s a sample what your child will receive…

 

💣 Avoid ‘Concept Traps’ That Cause Most Students To Lose Marks Unnecessarily

It is important to have an understanding of the common conceptual pitfalls so that your child can learn to avoid them. We also included little ‘warning notes’ to remind students of potential misconceptions in their syllabus.

For example, we’ll show your child how to avoid writing chemical formulas or naming compounds/molecules incorrectly.

Do not underestimate these tips as they will help your child improve the odds of scoring an A for his/her Science examination!
