Course Goals

Improve Academic Performance

Chemistry was slowly developed and discovered by looking at the trends of chemicals as we change their structure. By the end of our Year 11 Chemistry course, you will understand the trends that allow us to differentiate between different molecules and how these trends inform the properties of these chemicals.

Build Confidence and Resilience

The mole concept is introduced early in Year 11 and is one of the core ideas in Chemistry. In Year 12, the mole concept is expanded on even further. Our tutors will ensure that you have a good grasp of how the mole concept can be used to perform many of the calculations in Preliminary and HSC Chemistry.

Appreciate the Applications of Chemistry

Chemistry is the study of matter and substance, and thus anything we can touch (or not) is chemistry at work. Your food, your water, the things you take for granted are all thanks to the all-encompassing nature of chemistry. By the end of this course, you will develop an appreciation of the role that chemistry plays in the world around us.

Reviews

I was very behind on my class work before I came to YGA. But since I joined for physics, english advanced and maths advanced, I quickly caught up with all my class work and now we’re already learning ahead. Highly recommend them for everyone who’s looking for not only improving your marks, but also your confidence level.

I’ve been with YGA since I was in year 10 and I love every minute there! Maths extension 1 class is filled with mentors who personally understand your strengths and weaknesses and teach the best way to cater for them. They’re also very responsive and always there to support us even outside the classroom.
