HANDS-ON H2 CHEMISTRY PRACTICAL REVISION

MOE/SEAB SYLLABUS FOR H2 CHEMISTRY PRACTICAL

Paper 4 (Practical) is weighted to 20% of the Higher 2 assessment.

Candidates are expected to have been exposed to a range of topics and experimental techniques such as:

  1. Titration, e.g. acid-base titration (using suitable indicators such as methyl orange, screened methyl orange, thymolphthalein, and thymol blue), redox titration, iodimetric titration, indirect titration, including the preparation of standard solutions. Other types of titrations may also be required.
  2. Gravimetric analysis, e.g. volatilization gravimetry
  3. Gas collection
  4. Thermochemistry, including thermometric titration
  5. Chemical kinetics, e.g. continuous and initial rate methods
  6. Qualitative Inorganic analysis involving an element, a compound or a mixture. Systematic analysis will not be required. Candidates should be familiar with the reactions of cations, anions, and tests of gases as detailed in the Qualitative Analysis Notes. Reactions involving ions not included in the QA notes may be tested: in such cases, candidates will not be expected to identify the ions but only to draw conclusions of a general nature. Candidates should not attempt tests, other than those specified, on substances, except when it is appropriate to test for a gas.
  7. Qualitative inorganic analysis requiring a knowledge of simple organic reactions e.g. test-tube reactions indicating the presence of unsaturation ( C = C), alcoholic, phenolic, carbonyl, carboxyl and amino groups, may be tested, but this would be for the testing of observation skills and drawing general conclusions only
  8. Simple organic synthesis and purification, including use of water bath, setting up and the use of reflux and distillation apparatus

OUR STRUCTURED PRACTICAL TRAINING SYSTEM

Based on the above syllabus, we have several structured programs for you, depending on whether you are a Beginner or a Reviser.

You are at the Beginner level if you have never done any Chemistry Practical work before, or your last Chemistry Practical session was more than 2 years ago.

You are at the Reviser level if you have completed the Beginner practicals, or you are re-taking your Chemistry Practical exam, or you are a school candidate who has completed JC1/Y5.

JC1 H2 ECONOMICS RELEARNING PROGRAM

Dear Students, if you had done poorly in your J1H2 Economics Promotional exam, this is the course you would definitely want to attend in your holidays in order to catch up in your H2 Economics.

Our Re-Learning courses are planned and solely taught by MOE trained teachers with experience teaching in JC and running their own tuition centres, with their own unique set of notes, lecture materials, and coursework.

Each course comes with its own diagnostics to help you to identify the root cause of your issues, be it inadequacies in content, unable to tackle the question fully or always not using the right words for the answers. Your work will also be fully assessed, and a full review will be done with you by the end of the class.

Students will also be exposed to 2 to 3 case studies and several essays across various topics with quality and assessed answers written by students. We believe it is more authentic rather than the school’s suggested answers since it was all done under timed conditions. There will be lectures to cover the entire J1 syllabus, followed by assessing the fundamental concepts to ensure that you are able to tackle tougher questions, and some key pointers to help you ace those papers.

Sign up for our J1H2 Economics ReLearning now and improve your grades!

ReLearn J1 H2:

Time: 5pm – 7pm

Dates: (Please message the tutor Mr Jimmy Teh at 91474231)


Mr Teh has taught H2 Economics in JC since 2008, before venturing into tuition fully in 2015. He has a Bachelor degree from NUS in Economics, and is NIE trained. As a former teacher who was once in a mainstream school, he is aware of the rigour of JC curriculum and how it is designed to promote critical thinking and produce self-directed learners. His courses are planned with a unique set of notes for easy learning and comes with its own diagnostics to help you to identify the root cause of your issues, be it inadequacies in content, inability to tackle the question fully or always not using the right words for the answers. Work will also be fully assessed, with sufficient rigour and exposure in his programmes.


Fees: $480 for all 4 sessions
