Do you have a problem understanding what is taught in school? Or do you find it difficult to apply concepts to examination questions even

though you have done all the tutorial questions? Are you tired of poor academic performance? ITS TIME BREAK THIS VICIOUS CYCLE NOW! Here at Focus Chemistry, veteran Chemistry tutor Dion Khoo will show you how to see concepts from an entirely new way, using ana

logies from areas outside chemistry to remember concepts extremely easily! Mr. Khoo's students see a dramatic improvement in their Chemistry grades and perform well in major assessments such as common tests, promotional and final national /international Examinations. This tuition program is by far the best Chemistry education you can get, perfectly designed for the student who have trouble understanding Chemistry and applying key concepts. Hello, my name is Dion Khoo. I graduated with a Bachelors and Masters in Chemical Engineering from National University of Singapore. Early on, I discovered I have a gift in making difficult Chemistry concepts extremely simple. I always see that Chemistry concepts need not be so difficult and complicated as how school teachers make them to be. And this is usually the reason many of you cannot catch up or understand. As Albert Einstein said “If you cannot explain something simply, you do not understand it well”. The uniqueness of my program lies in my ability to explain difficult and complicated concepts using simple terms and relating them to easily understood analogies that we encounter in our daily lives. In addition, I link concepts between chapters and even between subjects like Biology and Physics. Being a research mentor in top IP schools like Hwa Chong, Dunman High and River Valley High, I bring in real life challenges that we meet in the laboratory in our research into the class to discuss, so that my students get to see concepts applied in research as well. Being in constant contact with the water and environmental industries also allows me to bring in applications where Chemistry concepts can be applied too. As I also coach students who are going to study Chemistry or Chemical Engineering in the university, prepare university students for Chemistry advanced placement tests, and having taught Applied Chemistry and Engineering in the Polytechnic, I often show students how difficult examination questions (which are out of syllabus) can be understood at their level. Some other features of my classes include:

- Small group classes (max 10)

- Too often schools have large classes where students don't get the personalized help they need. Once they have fallen behind, it's almost impossible to catch up. Here classes are very small. Every student gets the close supervision they need to learn quickly and well.

- Individual attention in a group setting. If you are having difficulty understanding a concept, I'm right there to give you all the attention you need. This makes a huge difference is how students perform in classes and on exams. There is no substitute for individual attention from an expert teacher.

- 24/7 Student Support. All my students receive all the attention they need, be it in the class or outside class hours. Students post questions on Whatsapp chat groups any time of the day, any day of the week. Learning is 24/7.

- Interactive and Highly Effective teaching-learning strategies. I use the most advanced techniques for teaching Chemistry. Rather than relying on the same old methods that have been used for years, I use industry best practices with the latest breakthroughs for making Chemistry easy to understand.

- Problem-based Learning and Group Discussions. We take Chemistry out of the abstract to teach with real life problems. This helps students learn while making Chemistry far more exciting and interesting. This method is reinforced with lively group discussions.

- Peer Teaching and Quizzing. Students often learn well from each other. I include plenty of situations where students teach each other and quiz one another. Hearing Chemistry come from a friend's lips is one more way to deepen the learning experience.

- Notes and worksheets provided. All related notes and worksheets are provided so students can continue their study from home while having the materials they need to review.

- Past year Preliminary papers from many schools provided. That's right, we go the extra step and provide past papers for study and enlightenment. Focus Chemistry is strongly focused on helping you or your student achieve impressive results. By using cutting-edge tuition methods, we are able to create remarkable successes one student at a time. Please review our site for more on our techniques, programs, and classes, with comments from our students and parents. We feel confident our Chemistry Tuition is the very best available for any student who wants to experience superior results. Please move forward in registering for the program that matches your needs.

Meet Teacher Daw Shyan: One of the Teachers Behind Focus Chemistry.​

Before joining MOE in 2005, Teacher Daw Shyan was involved in conducting training programmes for over 50 technicians. Seeing how clear structure and explanation helped learners understand complex ideas inspired him to pursue teaching full-time.​

His love for Chemistry, combined with a strong belief in visualising concepts, shapes his approach to teaching today which helps students build deeper understanding and not just memorise content.​

Behind the Focus Chemistry: Teacher Dion’s Story.​

Teacher Dion’s journey began over 30 years ago, when he started teaching while serving in the army, long before Focus Chemistry was founded.​

Built from decades of understanding how students learn Chemistry, his approach blends clarity and structure, with the occasional unexpected (and funny) insight. He believes the easiest way to understand complex topics is through real-life examples, often joking casually with students to keep lessons engaging and relatable.​

SN1 vs SN2: What’s the real difference?​

It all comes down to timing.​

In this video, we break down nucleophilic substitution using a simple relationship analogy to show when the nucleophile gets involved and why that changes everything.​
