Skinat Tuition delivers expert online Chemistry tuition for Scottish Highers, covering all levels from National 5 through Higher to Advanced Higher. Our tutors help students simplify challenging concepts, master calculations, and gain confidence across physical, organic and inorganic chemistry.Why Chemistry Tuition Matters in ScotlandChemistry is a core science subject for university degrees in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, chemical engineering, and biomedical sciences. The Scottish curriculum is demanding and students often struggle with:
- Abstract theory (moles, bonding, enthalpy)
- Multi-step calculations and formula application
- Organic reaction pathways and mechanisms
- Interpreting experimental data and drawing conclusions
- Learners working at National 5, Higher, or Advanced Higher Chemistry level
- Pupils aiming to improve exam technique, content retention, or confidence
- Private candidates and adult learners sitting Scottish Chemistry exams
- Students targeting medicine, science or STEM pathways
- Atomic structure and bonding
- Acids, alkalis, and rates of reaction
- Formulae, equations and the mole
- Fuels and hydrocarbons
- Everyday chemistry and plastics
- Chemical bonding, enthalpy and thermochemistry
- Chemical equilibrium and Le Chatelier’s Principle
- Organic reactions, isomerism and spectroscopy
- Redox, titration and calculations
- Problem-solving and exam-style application
- Electronic configuration and bonding theory
- Reaction kinetics and thermodynamics
- Stereochemistry and advanced organic synthesis
- Spectroscopy, structure determination and mechanisms
- Project/dissertation planning and experimental evaluation
- Identify topic gaps and mark scheme weaknesses
- Design a lesson and revision plan aligned to SQA outcomes
- Provide worked examples and scaffolded exam questions
- Share digital revision tools and optional homework support
- Whiteboard walkthroughs for equations and balancing
- Real-time exam questions and practice tasks
- Use of SQA past papers and specimen paper guidance
- Support for investigations, report writing, and extended responses
- S3–S6 students at all Scottish qualification levels
- Learners preparing for prelims, final exams or SQA coursework
- Resit and private students working toward science entry pathways
- Pupils moving from National 5 to Higher or Higher to Advanced Higher
