Is Your Child Facing Challenges with IP Chemistry?
Challenges Faced by IP Chemistry Students
1. Bridging the Gap Between Theory and Practical Application
One of the biggest challenges for IP Chemistry students is bridging the gap between abstract theories and real-world applications. The subject’s strong emphasis on laboratory work requires students to seamlessly integrate their theoretical knowledge with hands-on experimental skills. Many struggle with designing experiments, gathering precise data, and analyzing results in the context of chemical principles. Developing this connection between theory and practice demands a deep understanding of both, making a well-rounded and structured learning approach essential for success.
2. Mastering Complex Problem-Solving and Analytical Skills
IP Chemistry challenges students to develop strong higher-order thinking skills, requiring them to analyse intricate chemical problems, break them down systematically, and apply advanced problem-solving techniques. Mastery of the subject goes beyond memorization—it demands critical thinking, logical reasoning, and the ability to evaluate multiple solutions before selecting the most effective approach. To support students in tackling these complexities, SmileTutor provides expert guidance along with free example papers, helping them build confidence and sharpen their problem-solving skills.
3. Balancing Depth and Breadth of Knowledge
The IP Chemistry curriculum presents a dual challenge: achieving depth of understanding in specific areas while maintaining a broad overview of the subject. Students must reconcile the need to develop expertise in chosen topics with the requirement to acquire a comprehensive knowledge base. This equilibrium is crucial for success, as a strong foundation in core concepts is essential for tackling advanced topics. Effective time management and strategic study planning are vital for navigating this complex interplay between depth and breadth. Furthermore, the ability to identify interconnections between different areas of chemistry is crucial for developing a holistic understanding of the subject.

What’s unique about a 1-to-1 IP Chemistry Tuition class versus a IP Chemistry Tuition Centre?
1. Personalised Learning and Attention
One-to-one IP Chemistry tuition offers an unparalleled level of personalization. Tutors can meticulously tailor lesson plans, pacing, and teaching methods to align precisely with the student’s learning style, strengths, and weaknesses. This degree of customization is difficult to replicate in a group setting. The undivided attention of a tutor allows for immediate clarification of doubts, ensuring that no concept is left misunderstood.
2. Flexibility and Convenience
A significant advantage of one-to-one tuition is its flexibility. Lessons can be scheduled to accommodate the student’s busy timetable, minimizing disruptions to their academic and extracurricular commitments. This flexibility is particularly beneficial for students who require additional support in specific areas or need to intensify their studies during exam preparation. Moreover, the ability to choose a location for tuition, whether at home, a library, or a coffee shop, can create a comfortable and conducive learning environment.
3. Deeper Focus on Problem-Solving and Critical Thinking
IP Chemistry demands a high level of problem-solving and critical thinking skills. One-to-one tuition provides ample opportunity for in-depth exploration of complex problems. Tutors can challenge students with a variety of problem-solving scenarios, encouraging them to think critically and creatively. The absence of a fixed curriculum allows for greater exploration of different problem-solving approaches, fostering a deeper understanding of chemical concepts. This focused attention on problem-solving can be instrumental in developing a strong foundation for tackling challenging IP Chemistry questions.

IP Chemistry Tuition Pricing FAQs
What is the difference between the type of IP Chemistry tutors available?
To simplify things, we group our tutors into three main tutor categories:
– Part-Time IP Chem Tutors – refers to private tutors who doing it part-time. Most of the tutors here are still schooling: A-level graduates, Diploma students/graduates, or Undergraduates. To a lesser extent, there are also University graduates and working professionals offering tuition part-time and they fall under this category. Part-time tutors are the cheapest option for home tuition in Singapore.
– Full-Time IP Chem Tutors – refers to full-time private tutors who teach as a profession. Full-time tutors may/may not be university graduates but often have significantly more teaching experiences than part-time tutors as they tutor lots of students 1-to-1 as well as take up jobs in tuition centres teaching groups of students in classes.The actual qualifications and experience of a full-time tutor can vastly differ between individuals, hence so does the tuition rate they command.
– IP Chem School Teachers – refers to ex/current school teachers either from MOE or from private and international schools. Tutors under this category tend to be the most experienced and qualified in private tutoring and thus command the highest tuition rates. Be prepared to pay a premium in order to engage these teachers successfully.
Do I have to pay any agent fees?
Our services are free-of-charge for parents and students. You are only required to pay for IP Chemistry lessons conducted. A portion of the total lesson fees usually in the first four weeks of lessons will be allocated to SmileTutor as the agency commission. This is deducted directly from the tutor’s fees, so you do not pay anything extra.
However, there is a 9% GST imposed on the agency commission. For example, if you engage a IP Chemistry home tutor for $50 per class for once a week, the agency commission will be $100. Hence, the GST imposed is $9. This is only a one-off payment only and from 3rd lesson onward there is no GST since you pay the tutor directly. The tutor’s fees are not subjected to GST.
To facilitate the process for us to collect the agency fees, you are required to cooperate with us by transferring the allocated agency commission (usually 50% of the 1st month fees) + GST directly to SmileTutor. Thereafter, you will pay the remaining lessons to the tutor directly. Our Tuition Coordinators will inform you of the full payment details and instructions upon lesson confirmation.
Are there any contracts?
There are no contracts and obligations until you agree to engage our private IP Chem tutors. When any assignment is confirmed, there are guidelines to follow to ensure that both the student and tutor can have a smooth and rewarding experience.
How can I trust the private IP Chemistry tutors recommended by SmileTutor?
In 2019, we introduced Quality Score™ which is our proprietary system that grades over 50,000 tutors based on multiple factors such as profile completeness, recent job acceptance, track records, parent reviews, and more. With this system, we are able to ensure that parents & students are constantly matched with the cream of the crop IP Chemistry tutors in Singapore. Since we have introduced this system, the quality of our private IP Chemistry tutors have improved and our numbers of compliments had increased tremendously.
SmileTutor treats the credibility of our tutor profiles very seriously. All suspicious tutor applications or profiles with missing information are immediately investigated and blacklisted. For tutees who wish to personally verify their tutor’s qualifications and identity, you may request that the tutor bring their relevant certificates on the 1st lesson. (We do not to send online documents due to privacy laws). For current school teachers, it is our SOP to remind tutors to bring teacher’s pass on their first lesson as a form of verification to give tutee a peace of mind.

Read lessFrequently Asked Questions about IP Chemistry Tuition in Singapore
Is IP Chemistry a difficult subject?
IP Chemistry can be very subjective in terms of difficulty. However, in recent years, it is definitely becoming more challenging and advanced which can prove to be a difficult subject to score in. Students need to understand formulas AND also memorise them by applying it to problems which they have to solve.
Even if students rely on memorization, when they encounter more advanced problems, they still might get stuck.
Why do students struggle with IP Chemistry?
Some students might struggle with Singapore IP Chemistry more than the rest because they go into the subject already feeling like they will not be able to solve it. The mental block can prove to be daunting for many.
A negative mindset can turn into a vicious cycle of low confidence as well as poor performance. Practicing in IP Chemistry is also crucial in improving. It takes a lot of patience on themselves in order to see improvements.
How do I know if my child needs help with IP Chemistry?
IP Chem is one of the subjects where they will be studying throughout being in school. If you notice that your child has been failing tests or exams, and is always stressed out when it comes to Chemistry homework, then maybe it is time to consider engaging a tutor.
How can private IP Chemistry home tuition help?
Private IP Chemistry home tuition can help in students’ confidence by teaching them techniques to problem solve. Chemistry tuition can also strengthen subject understanding. It also keeps students on track by giving individualised attention to them. On top of that, it forces them to practice at least 2-3 hours a week. If your child is already struggling in Chemistry, chances are they will avoid the subject as much as they can.

Alternatively, you may view some of our latest available tutors at our ‘View Tutors’ page. From this page you can do some DIY sourcing and indicate your interest directly there. However, do note that the availability of the tutor may not be guaranteed. Our Coordinators will be swift to advice you on the availabilities of the requested tutor and recommend any similar tutors that may be available if needed.
Where are the IP Chemistry tuition lessons conducted?
The IP Chemistry tutoring lessons will be conducted at a pre-determined location according to your preference (usually at your home). If it is not convenient to have tuition conducted at your home, you may request for the tuition to be conducted somewhere else, such as the tutors home or at a convenient public location such as libraries, cafeterias, hostels, etc.
The location of the tuition lessons should be determined before the confirmation of lessons. Any change in address after lessons have started is subject to both parties approval
How are lessons conducted?
One of the main benefits of private tutoring is that we do not adopt a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. Every IP Chemistry tutor has their unique methodology, personality, and teaching style. During the prospecting phase, our coordinators do our due diligence to find out your child’s needs and weakest points in the IP Chemistry subject in order to match the most suitable tutor.
Usually, the first lesson is a ‘getting to know’ phase, where tutors will gauge your child’s interest in the subject, current level of proficiency, and spot areas of weakness. From the second lesson onwards, tutors will generally be more prepared to conduct the lessons according to the student’s learning or syllabus.
If you are a more hands-on parent, you can also communicate with the tutor and provide suggestions on which area you’d like the tutor to focus more on (i.e. composition writing). As there are no fixed lesson plans or arrangements, both the clients and tutors are free to discuss and conduct their lessons in any way that benefits the student’s learning.
Can I postpone lessons dates & timings?
Yes, of course. However, all postponements of lessons must be made at least 24 hours in advance of lessons, except for special cases (such as medical emergencies).
For postponement of the first lesson, SmileTutor must be informed via phone call at +65 6266 4475 (Mon to Sun 9am-8pm). A confirmation SMS will be sent to you acknowledging your postponement after the call. However, if you are informing at least 48 hours in advance, an SMS made to +65 9014 4201 will suffice.
Postponements of lessons after the first lesson may be made directly between tutor and tutee.
Please note that failure to make a postponement at least 24 hours in advance may incur compensation to the tutor for time loss (e.g wasted trips). Generally, the compensation amount is 50% of 1-lesson fee.
Can I terminate lessons if the tutor is not suitable?
You may terminate the tuition at any time after the first lesson but must inform SmileTutor at least 24 hours in advance of the next lesson and must pay for all lessons conducted. Terminations made less than 24 hours before the lesson will incur a late charge of 50% of that lesson’s total fee.
Termination Procedure
1. Inform SmileTutor via a phone call to +65 6266 4475 (9am-8pm) at least 24 hours in advance before the next lesson
2. Pay for lessons conducted, half directly to SmileTutor and WhatsApp the receipt to our Finance Dept. at +65 9450 4390
3. Pay the other half directly to the tutor
However, note that once you have confirmed the assignment to book the tutor in quote, there is a binding contract to complete one full lesson and you may only request a change of tutor or terminate the tuition only after that 1st lesson. If you decide to change your mind before the 1st lesson even commenced, the fee for the unfinished first lesson may be charged as an administrative fee.
Will tutors postpone lessons?
SmileTutor does not encourage tutors to make frequent postponements to the lessons. However, we do encourage you to offer some degree of flexibility as tutors are also human and may fall sick or have sudden emergencies from time to time.
If the tutor we assigned to you happen to make postponements more frequently than you prefer, you may wish to communicate with them and remind them to stick to the usual lesson schedule. Sometimes, a simple effort to communicate between both parties can go a long way in avoiding any disruption in lessons or last-minute discrepancies.
If you face further difficulties with your tutor in this area, please feedback to us immediately and we will arrange a new tutor for you.
Can my tutor terminate the lessons?
For termination of lessons, tutors are expected to commit for at least the 4-weeks of tuition. If the tutor backs out of an assignment without a valid reason (e.g. illness) before completing at least 4-weeks of tuition, he/she will not be entitled to receive any tuition fees. i.e. You will only be required to pay 50% of the tuition fees (plus any applicable taxes) directly to the agency.
Unfortunately, we are unable to force tutors to commit for more than 4-weeks. However, we do encourage responsible behaviour and let our tutors know that they should do their best to commit at least until the end of year exams. Most of our tutors follow through.
What about adding of subjects or students (e.g siblings)?
You may wish to try out one subject first and then add more subjects subsequently. Or, when starting the tuition, you may find yourself wanting to increase the frequency of lessons or to engage the same tutor for your other children. In any of these cases, please make your request through the agency in order to stay protected and keep the tutor accountable to the agency.
SmileTutor is not responsible for any engagements made outside of the agency’s knowledge. Hence, tutors and tutees are expected to inform their coordinators of any added lessons or changes to the lessons schedule/subjects/tutees immediately.
How do I feedback to SmileTutor regarding my good/bad experience?
You may email us at Email for any feedback or questions that are not answered under this FAQ.
For private feedback about the agency service, you may contact Rum (Founder) at 97558257 or email him at Rum Email.
We appreciate your help in providing us accurate feedback so as to improve our service and system.
