One-on-One Support for Core & Extended

Mole calculations in particular show up in almost every paper, and organic chemistry is one of the largest and most heavily tested topics in the syllabus, so gaps in either area tend to cost marks across multiple topics rather than just one. Whether a student is working toward Core or Extended tier, our tutors at Growing Stars break these topics down clearly, step by step, using the student’s own course material.

Our expert tutors focus on core concepts, calculation technique, and clear chemical reasoning, helping students build the knowledge they’ll need for their exams and for whatever science course comes next.

What You Will Learn

Sessions are tailored to the specific syllabus and tier your school follows, matching the exact topics and level of depth your student is studying.

  • States of Matter & the Particulate Nature of Matter
  • Atoms, Elements & Bonding
  • Stoichiometry & Mole Calculations
  • Electrochemistry
  • Chemical Energetics
  • Rates of Reaction & Equilibria
  • Acids, Bases & Salts
  • The Periodic Table & Metals
  • Chemistry of the Environment
  • Organic Chemistry
  • Experimental Techniques

Extended tier builds on these same areas with additional depth and more complex calculations. Every session follows the exact syllabus, tier, and pace your school is using, so tutoring supports what’s happening in class rather than working against it.

Why Families Choose Growing Stars for IGCSE Chemistry Tutoring

At Growing Stars, we know that every student learns differently. Our expert tutors personalize each session to the student’s syllabus, tier, learning pace, and goals, rather than following a fixed script.

Sessions follow the student’s course notes, textbook, and upcoming assessments, supported by our library of practice questions, concept summaries, and past-paper style materials. Because sessions are one-on-one, tutors can spend as much time as needed on the concept causing trouble — whether that’s balancing an equation, calculating moles, or working through an organic reaction.

Sessions take place online, so students can join from home, a study space, or anywhere with an internet connection.

Program Details & Tutoring Approach

  • Live Sessions on an Interactive Platform: Live classroom sessions with expert tutors are conducted through an interactive platform with a user-interactive whiteboard, audio and video, screen sharing, chat, homework tools, progress monitoring, and a parent portal. These features support effective learning, personalized instruction, communication, and easy progress tracking.
  • Customized Learning Materials: Students receive learner-specific study materials, practice questions, review materials, and additional resources aligned with their IGCSE syllabus and learning needs.
  • Regular Homework & Review: Tutors assign homework after each session based on the topics covered and the student’s learning needs. Assignments are reviewed in subsequent sessions to reinforce learning and address areas requiring additional practice.
  • Targeted Exam Practice: Students receive exam-style practice questions, mixed and cumulative practice sheets, and mock exams tailored to their individual learning needs and IGCSE assessment requirements.
  • Homework Assistance: Students receive step-by-step guidance with assigned homework. Tutors clarify questions, explain concepts, and guide students toward independent problem-solving and effective application of course-specific skills.
  • Consistent Tutoring: Students receive continuous support from the same dedicated tutor on a regular schedule. Sessions remain aligned with the student’s learning needs, IGCSE syllabus, and specific academic requirements.
  • Progress Monitoring: Receive feedback after sessions and monthly progress reports. Education Managers monitor student development and implement additional support when needed.
