It has been a few days after the successful completion of the O Levels Chemistry workshops for December Holidays. It has been fun for me coaching these diverse group of students which has one thing in common – eagerness to learn more and the willingness to participate!

Chemistry Basic Essential Concepts Workshop – 6th & 7th Dec 2010
Two groups of students (AM and PM sessions) ranging from Sec 1 – Sec 4 (O Levels / IP /SOTA IB) were put through participative exercises and engaging activities to build up their essential concepts and skill sets such as:
- Difference between Elements, Compounds & Mixtures
- Understanding Atomic Structure of Atoms
- Mastery of the Use of Periodic Table
- Importance of Chemical Formula
- Writing Balanced Chemical Equations

Chemistry Basic Essential Concepts Workshop (PM session)
Chemistry Acids, Bases & Salts Revision Workshop – 8th to 10th Dec 2010
Workshop was attended by Sec 3 and 4 students from O Levels and IP schools.
Many of the students that joined this revision workshop had went for the earlier Chemistry Basic Essential Concepts Workshop on 6th and 7th Dec. You can see that they are so much more confident in writing all the chemical formula and balanced chemical equations which is so common in Acids, Bases and Salts topics. This shows that basic essential concepts and skill sets are important for Chemistry students! They must start from basic….
Comprehensive revision was achieved with lots of participation on exam-based application questions for this workshop. Coverage of key concepts include:
- Definition, Physical & Chemical Properties of Acids
- Definition, Physical & Chemical Properties of Alkalis
- Strategies to Choose the Correct Method for the Preparation of Salts
Acids, Bases & Salts Revision Workshop
Now, i am looking forward to mid-January 2011 when the Sec 3 and 4 O Levels Chemistry Weekly Classes (Ultimate Leap Programme) starts for Winners Education Group, with many of the workshop participants joining up for the weekly classes.
