Lina graduated from the University of Wollongong with both a BSc and MSc in Chemistry, achieving a High Distinction average. She began her career in the pharmaceutical industry, gaining valuable real-world experience before moving into education.

Since 2004, Lina has dedicated her career to teaching Chemistry and has over 20 years of experience teaching students aged 12–18 across international school curricula. She is currently the Head of Science and Head of Chemistry at a Singapore international school, where she leads the Science department and oversees a programme that combines Cambridge and Singapore curricula.

Lina’s strongest areas of expertise are Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge O Level, Cambridge AS Level, and Cambridge A Level Chemistry. Her extensive classroom and leadership experience gives her a deep understanding of the syllabus content, assessment objectives, examination requirements, and question-answering techniques needed for students to succeed in Cambridge examinations.

In addition to her extensive Cambridge experience, Lina is highly qualified and experienced in teaching Pearson Edexcel Chemistry and Singapore-Cambridge O Level Chemistry, as well as IB Diploma Chemistry (HL/SL) and AP Chemistry. Her experience across multiple international curricula allows her to adapt her teaching to different examination boards while maintaining a strong focus on the specific requirements of each syllabus.

Over more than two decades of teaching, Lina has developed an extensive collection of exam-focused resources, past-paper materials, practice questions, and revision strategies. She understands that success in Chemistry requires more than knowing the content—students must also learn how to apply concepts, interpret questions, structure answers, and respond according to the expectations of their examination board.

Lina’s teaching philosophy is centred on helping students understand the “why behind the why” rather than relying on memorisation alone. Lessons typically begin by identifying gaps in prior knowledge, followed by clear explanations and modelling, guided practice, and independent problem-solving. Students are also given targeted practice to reinforce their learning between lessons.

Because Chemistry can be highly abstract, Lina uses visual explanations, analogies, worked examples, and real-world applications to make challenging concepts easier to understand. She creates a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and developing confidence in their Chemistry abilities.

Whether a student is preparing for Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge O Level, AS or A Level Chemistry, following the Singapore Chemistry curriculum, or studying Pearson Edexcel Chemistry, Lina combines deep subject knowledge, over two decades of international-school teaching experience, current academic leadership, and exam-focused teaching to help students reach their full potential.

Outside of teaching, Lina enjoys travelling and staying active through outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, and jogging.

Hello! I am Dr. K. I have a PhD in Engineering, and I specialise in Math and Science (Physics/Chemistry) Tuition. I have successfully tutored/coached hundreds of young adults across several examination boards such as A-levels/ATAR/O-levels, CIE, IGCSE, and towards the SAT exams both via face-to-face and online modes. The background of my students vary across a wide spectrum, from neighbourhood schools to independent/international schools and even Homeschooled/Private Candidates. I am also at ease with both neurotypical and neurodivergent learners (ADHD, mild Autism etc.). One of my students topped the ATAR for physics and currently at Oxford.

I am also an ex-adjunct Assistant Professor of Physics at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in Department of Math and Science with expertise in pedogogy, androgogy and also a motivational speaker with experience running courses in JCs (High Schools)

I believe in empowering every student to do his/her best! No student has ever been turned away!

Louise B has taught/tutored A level and GCSE/IGCSE Biology for over 10 years and is experienced at preparing students to perform well during their exams. Several of her A level students have gone on to study Medicine and many of her GCSE students have achieved a 9, but her biggest driver is to build the confidence in the young people she works with. Helping her students realised that they are more capable than they previously believed is what, she believes, enables them to make the fastest progress towards their goal.

At university Louise initially began studying Biochemistry but quickly realised that Microbiology was a bigger passion. She therefore has an excellent understanding of metabolic processes that students tend to find tricky. Her PhD in life sciences demonstrates that she understands the research process and is able to pass these skills onto her students.

Finally, Louise's teaching qualification was attained at the University of Oxford meaning that she is equipped with teaching skills that will allow her to get the best from her students. Her approach is to work with students with empathy and an open mind so that students grow in confidence and feel that they can achieve more than they previously thought possible.

DJ has extensive experience working with private colleges in the UK particularly helping students prepare for their GCSE and A-level examinations. He is familiar with all of the exam boards and has the most amount of experience with AQA and Edexcel. He emphasizes the importance of interactive lessons with students to help improve their confidence and enjoyability of the subject matter. He also believes in practicing the concepts discussed in between tutoring sessions to help consolidate their level of understanding.

I am Hans K and a native from Rotterdam, The Netherlands. I have been teaching IB/DP , IGCSE and 'O' and 'A' levels for the last 20 years on a variety of internationals schools, both in Europe and the U.S. I carry degrees from Leiden Uni. in Leiden, The Netherlands, and completed my doctors course work at Carnegie-Mellon Uni. in Pittsburgh, PA, USA. I have played First Division Amateur soccer in Holland and have coached for the last 20 years as well. Besides being a soccer fanatic, I am also a wolf conservationist supporter being associated with Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary in Ramah, NM. I read quite a lot as well and try and link my readings to what I teach in History. Finally, looking at the A-Level curriculum, I have extended experience in working with sources corresponding to the Unit of European History with specifics in World War I and II, the Interbellum Period, and the Cold War., the same applies for my IGCSE teachings. I think it was the Cambridge Assessment Exam Board where the exams were forwarded to by the school.
