Leading JC Chemistry Tuition Specialist in Singapore that covers the latest Singapore-Cambridge GCE A-Level Chemistry Syllabus, including H1 and H2 Chemistry

Indigo Education is the leading JC Chemistry Tuition Specialist in Singapore that covers the latest Singapore-Cambridge GCE A-Level Chemistry Syllabus, including H1 and H2 Chemistry.

Established since 2011 to cater to the needs of JC students, Indigo has produced one of the highest numbers of students who have achieved a distinction in their A-Level Chemistry examination, thus achieving its mission to provide top quality JC Chemistry tuition for A-level students.

Indigo JC Chemistry uses research and evidence-based teaching pedagogy that is renowned to build higher-order-thinking (HOT) skills through content mastery practices. Our JC Chemistry H1 and H2 specialists are MOE-trained, carefully selected, and possess more than 10 years of teaching experience. Indigo emphasizes on studying JC Chemistry as a fun yet important A-Level subject with real-world relevance.

Not your typical sit-and-receive tuition, Indigo JC Chemistry students are actively engaged through well-designed workbooks, clear and interactive teaching so students visualise and break down complex Chemistry concepts easily, along with termly assessments to track progress, ensuring peak performance at the A-levels. Both H1 and H2 Chemistry students are taught and guided on topical interconnections, the key use of exam answering techniques, and must-have higher-order-thinking (HOT) application skills.

Throughout the year, Indigo JC also delivers special programmes such as master classes, crash courses, and seminars with industry leaders, to holistically cater to the A-level students’ needs as well as academic requirements. Not only do we ensure JC students in Singapore are well prepared for the Chemistry H1 or H2 A-Level exam, Indigo JC students are stretched to develop a lifelong passion for Science, a key subject which influences careers, and everyday life.

What others won't tell you

(Reasons behind low National distinction rates for JC H1 / H2 Chemistry)

- COMPLEX INTERCONNECTIONS

All topics are linked. Unaddressed issues in previous chapters will snowball since nearly all questions are hybrid questions which required knowledge from more than 1 topic.

- OVERWHELMING CONTENT TO MEMORISE

There is too much content in Chemistry and too little time. Students struggle with major topics like Acid, Bases and Salts, Electrochemistry and Organic Chemistry.

- IDENTIFYING DECEPTIVE CONTENT

Misinterpreting the question will affect the extended parts of the exam question. There is a high cost to going off track from the start of the question. Furthermore, it implies that there are more misinterpretations of similar questions.

- QUESTIONS THAT ARE BEYOND "DIFFICULT"

Most of the questions require application. With most students adopting passive forms of learning like reading, highlighting, and copying notes, they struggle to answer application questions. Application questions take up a large section of their entire A-Level grade.

Indigo Pedagogy TM

Complex concepts simplified into layman’s explanation

Complicated concepts are simplified into layman’s explanation for quick and effective knowledge absorption.

Exposure to Higher Order Application Questions

A large portion of our lesson time is primed towards questions analysis and solving. These questions are specially handpicked by our teachers to bridge theory into application. We train students to develop their own chain of thoughts, discover the quickest and simplest way to solve questions, and avoid common mistakes made by students during the A-Level Chemistry exams.

Application-Based Teaching To Strengthen Concepts

Our patented teaching approach blend teaching with application, not only teaching students syllabus content but also explaining how examiners set questions according to the A-Level standard. By breaking down this complex concept, students are trained to better analyse question types and develop a proper thought process. Adopting this teaching method allows students to better understand concepts and be able to produce concise answers suited to the requirements of different A-Level Chemistry question types.

Quality Study Materials

In line With Latest A-Level Exam Syllabus And Notes

We invest a huge amount of time into reviewing and enhancing our materials. Summarised into a single comprehensive book, our A-Level Chemistry encyclopedia covers everything essential for mastering the syllabus. Materials are carefully crafted to match the demands of H2 Chemistry. This includes concise notes, power summaries, effective worked examples and quick test questions. Questions selected are hand-picked from various different JC school papers, exposing our students to different question types with varying levels of difficulty.

Curated Questions To Build A Strong Foundation

Quick conceptual MCQs and structured questions are carefully designed to expose gaps in understanding. Tiered questions to help students practise common questions that require critical thinking.

Homework on Demand

Consolidated practices are also included at the end of every topic to help reinforce concepts learnt and gauge individual understanding.

Robust Out-of-Class support 

Telegram support

Allows students can ask questions whenever they arise, without having to wait for the next session. This allows them to learn at their own pace, without constraints.

Complimentary consultations

Complimentary consultation to clarify doubts, bridge the learning gaps and get specific guidance on areas for improvements

Quizlet to study overwhelming Chemistry content

A power tool to help you master overwhelming H2 Chemistry content with ease.

What Indigo students say

The frameworks and acronyms that Indigo taught me have helped me to generate ideas effectively even when facing unfamiliar and novel questions. Distinguishing the question types using the VIPERCJ model has also improved my question analysis skills, allowing me to target key terms and answer the question. In addition, model essays and current affairs notes have provided me with salient examples to use in essays. Furthermore, regular comprehension and summary practice, especially with past A level papers, has enabled me to hone my skills in timed conditions.

The answering techniques and real-world examples learned in Indigo have strengthened my essay arguments, making them more compelling and concrete! My tutor’s guidance and patience has helped me to develop a strong foundation towards tackling essay questions and creating effective outlines!

I wasn’t coping well and and got a U for my J1 Chemistry Promotional Exams. My tutor explained difficult concepts from scratch and debunked the common misconceptions students have. Even if it took him multiple attempts to explain difficult concepts, he was willing to do so. I am grateful that I eventually got an A for Chemistry at the A-level examinations.

Indigo has prepared me well to tackle the weirdest and unconventional of questions with a measured approach.
Indigo has imparted many invaluable skills for my GP studies. Throughout my 5 years in Indigo, not only was I taught various answering techniques to conquer Paper 2, I was also exposed to a wide range of topics, all the way from politics to interesting topics like architecture. Indigo has also helped me keep up with the relevant current affairs, keeping me afloat on the happenings of today, while offering new and novel perspective to these issues. All these certainly played a crucial role in allowing me to eventually ace the papers!

Switching to Indigo Chemistry was definitely one if the best choices I made in JC. My tutor can break down complex concepts down to details we can understand. The notes provided are top notch and objective, being very exam centric and covering many commonly asked questions as well as commonly misunderstood concepts. I have never gotten higher than a C in my school exams, but I got an A in A level.
Through my tutor’s explanations as well as the amazing GP notes, I was able to score an A in GP (I have never gotten above a B). The indigo GP notes — although long— are actually filled with great case studies and evaluations. The current affairs section also enhances our general knowledge — important for the mastery of the GP.
