Chemistry Tuition In Singapore
Chemistry is a challenging subject and it is not
easy to master. It is integrated with
mathematics, physics and biology and the content
can be overwhelming. It has lot of abstract
theories which are not easy to grasp. Over the
years, the syllabus has changed drastically. You
look at a question and you dont know where to
start. You keep reading your notes to find the
answers and yet you are still lost. If you can
relate to this, you have come to the right
place. Mr Donnell Koh was a former Raffles
Institution (JC) and Meridian Junior College
teacher with a wealth of experience teaching the
A level syllabus and a superb track record of
getting students to excel for the A-level
Chemistry exam (90 As and Bs). Twig Learning
Centre started off specialising in A-level
Chemistry. Over the years, the centre has seen
many students graduating at the top of their
A-levels cohort. Because of the many requests,
plans to start upper Secondary and IP classes are
now underway.

MATERIALS
Twig Learning Center notes are so clear and
concise that we believe they are probably better
than those from many top schools. Many of our
students told us they refer to our notes solely
for studying and revision. Immense time,
thought and effort have gone into crafting these
notes, making sure all ground is covered. The
content and layout have all been well thought out
for easy learning and reading for our students.
The copyrighted materials are crisp and concise,
with many summaries given for easy recap. We use
pictures, flowcharts, mind-maps and annotations
in our notes to facilitate understanding.
TECHNOLOGY
Two interactive SMART boards are used during
lessons. It is more efficient as annotations can
be done directly on the diagrams. The tutor is
drawing directly on the board instead of a laptop
and learning becomes more personal and
interactive. Videos are also used to show
complicated organic chemistry mechanisms and
class experiments are conducted to explain
concepts. Students only spend 2 hours with us
every week compared to 7 hours of chemistry
lessons in school but yet, many have commented
that they learn a lot more at Twig Learning
Center. Learning has been made so much easier and
precise with our well-designed teaching methods!

THE TEACHER
Lets be frank. Chemistry is not an easy subject
to master. The learning curve is steep. There is
more content to learn in 2 years of JC than the
entire triple science content at O level all put
together. Here at Twig, we make the subject easy
to manage as concepts delivery is to-the-point.
 Mr Donnell Koh has an exceptional ability in
explaining difficult, abstract chemistry concepts
in a way that students will come out of the class
feeling totally enlightened. Students will
learn important key words to explain concepts for
application during examinations. These key words
are in bold and highlighted clearly in his notes.
During lessons he also highlights the common
misconceptions that students make in the study of
Chemistry.  There is a need for students to see
the link between theory and question. Lessons are
interactive and all students are encouraged to
participate in class. His lessons are never
one-way. He is constantly throwing open-ended
questions at students during lessons to test
their understanding. Mr Donnell Koh is an
approachable teacher as you can read from the
many testimonials. In addition, many students do
stay back to ask him questions and clarify their
doubts. Donnell will answer queries of all his
students no matter how busy he is. Students do
look forward to his lessons every week even after
a long day in school.

ADDITIONAL CONSULTATION
Lessons are carried out in a group setting and
being a passionate and committed teacher, Mr
Koh understands that some students may still have
a lot of queries after lessons. As such, he
always avails himself for personal consultation
should a student need further coaching. All they
have to do is make a prior appointment and
head down to the centre in the afternoon or
before lesson to seek clarification. Otherwise,
he can be reached easily via SMS or Whatsapp.
Consultations are free of charge as at Twig, we
are excited when we see students interested in
learning Chemistry and motivated to excel in the
subject!
FLEXIBLE SCHEDULE
Twig Learning Center understands that JC life is
very hectic and students are overwhelmed with
school activities, be it sports, societies, or
community involvements. We have a flexible
schedule with multiple time slots for students to
make up within the same week. Hence, if students
cannot make it for their usual timeslot, they can
always make up on another day.

CRASH COURSES
There will be crash courses every school holiday
in March, June, Sep and Dec. During these crash
courses, the important chapters are revisited to
help new students to catch up on previous
chapters that they missed. This will allow new
students to integrate into the existing classes
so they can follow the pace of the ongoing
classes.
WE PRODUCE RESULTS!
Mr Donnell Koh coaches a few hundred students
yearly and 90 of students taught by him have
achieved either A or B grades in their A-levels.
This goes to show that Mr Donnell Koh has been
very successful in what he does. Many students
who were once lost in the maze of Chemistry,
after attending Chemistry lessons at Twig, they
start to be enlightened and see breakthroughs.
Chemistry even became the favourite subject of
many. Many have been so inspired by Mr Kohs
lessons, that they went on to further their
interest by majoring in Chemistry in the
Universities and are doing well now. Chemistry is
also a pre-requisite for entry into NUS Medicine
Faculty. Mr. Donnell Koh has over the years
helped many students score an A in Chemistry and
that allowed them to pursue their dream to study
Medicine.

SO WHATS NEXT?
This is an opportunity for you to make a
difference in your life. We can change your
perception, your Chemistry grades, and possibly
your entire life. It is rare to find tuition
centers specializing in just one subject. It is
even more uncommon to find a tuition center that
provides free consultation and such flexibility
in class schedules. More importantly, the secret
to do well is found in the copyrighted
proprietary notes! Take this leap of faith and
see how we can help you achieve your dreams. Call
us now for a life-changing experience in the
study of Chemistry! Donnell graduated from NUS
Chemical Engineering with 2nd Upper Honours. He
used to work as a Chemical engineer however deep
inside he always wanted to be a teacher, so after
3 years of working in the private sector, he
enrolled into National Institute of Education
(NIE) to get his Post Graduate Diploma in
Education (PGDE).
