01What we can work on together
Connect particle-level explanations with observable changes. Use chemical equations, amounts and units to make quantitative reasoning clear. Identify the species involved, balance the equation and label each quantity. Explain the chemical relationship before substituting numbers into a calculation.
02Match practice to your course
Keep a list of topics and the kinds of errors made in each. A precise vocabulary issue needs different work from an algebra gap or weak data interpretation. Use that diagnosis to make revision time more useful.
03Make the lesson fit your school work in Hong Kong
For tutoring in Hong Kong, begin with the qualification rather than the school year alone. Students in the same year may take IB, IGCSE, A-level or HKDSE courses. Bring the current guide and recent feedback so the lesson follows your own pathway. Bring an attempted question so your tutor can see how you reason, then agree what to practise next.
