A great tuition that made learning Chemistry extremely easy, engaging and worthwhile. Whenever I had trouble, the teacher would always be ready and be willing to help me with any confusions I had. The dedication that he goes to ensure that you are on the right track is something you may rarely see at other places. I wouldn’t have been able to improve from a failing grade to almost a top grade without his easy to understand advice and consistent mastery in his explanations, making learning extremely easy and enjoyable.

Teacher Desmond is a top-notch Chemistry tutor. But he is more than that; he was a mentor to my daughter who aced IB HL Chem. My daughter was often anxious & demanding about the thoroughness of academic understanding, and was looking for more. I asked around friends and he came highly recommended by the ACS Independent medic students. Teacher Desmond was very caring and always calmed my daughter’s angst especially when she had a rough week. He counselled her and helped to instil balance and inner peace.
Teacher Desmond knows the IB HL Chem syllabus and mark scheme very well. He teaches topics thoroughly what schools sometimes gloss over due to the lack of time as a result of long term breaks, especially in international schools.
He only has the best wishes for his students and he always encourages them to be the best version of themselves. I don’t think anything satisfies him more than receiving texts from his students on IB results day, screaming they have attained a 6/7 in HL Chem, which is no walk in the park!
Give your IB children the right environment to learn. The lack of time to learn any subject increases stress unnecessarily. The best tip I can give is - consider starting early a few weeks before IB Y1 to get the cold engine warmed up after a long summer slumber!

Mr Desmond is an exceptional Chemistry tutor who explains even the most challenging HL topics with clarity and precision. His teaching style is concise, effective, and tailored to help students truly understand and apply concepts. He goes above and beyond by providing detailed revision materials, well-structured practice questions, and prompt support outside of class. His guidance has been invaluable in strengthening my grasp of IB Chemistry.

Been here since the start of JC1. Had my doubts about group tuition initially, but I was glad to have given it a go. Desmond has excellent class control. He is straightforward but tactful. Tells you exactly what you need to know, and of course how to excel in Chemistry. Thank you so much Desmond!

Desmond deserves more than 5 stars. My daughter is taking HL Chem, which requires more than an interest in the subject but also dedication and continuous learning. Her best friend recommended her to join in the tutor class with Desmond and we have never looked elsewhere as Desmond is top notch. He knows all requirements and changes of syllabus with IB.
Desmond's care is beyond tutor, outside tutor time he reaches out to make sure his students are doing okay in tests/exams/mocks through out 2 years. When school is out, Desmond is still keep on going. He guides his students on how to grow from the mistakes they did. As parents, he definitely take away our stress of making sure our kid has thorough understanding and ready for exams. We are very grateful to have him as our daughter's mentor.
We are more than happy to refer him to anyone who looks for support for your child. A recommendation is to start early....before IB starts. Some of our daughter's friends started later which added more stress to them to catch up. Nevertheless, they were also happy to that we recommended Desmond to them.
Thank you Desmond. You are amazing.
