Year 11 Chemistry Tutoring

Our Difference

Small Class. Same Price.

Single-Digit Student Classes

We know students are easily distracted and forgotten about in large classes, so we limit our classes to small, single-digit student numbers. Our average class size of 6 students support collaborative learning while simultaneously allowing you to receive the individual attention and care you need to succeed.

2 Hour Lessons

Through continuous feedback from our students, our lessons have undergone countless revisions to ensure that you are learning efficiently. We understand time is limited, so we make sure our lessons are worth your time and effort.

Tailored Learning

At Cognito, we adopt an interactive teaching approach that actively involves students in the learning process. Our tutors ask students questions throughout the lesson and offer continuous feedback to their responses to practice questions. This ensures that all students develop a deep understanding of the concepts rather than just memorising them.

Unmatched Resources

Each lesson, receive a printed booklet with colour-coded notes written by our subject specialists that comprehensively cover every dot point in the NESA syllabus. Our booklets are filled with unique HSC-style practice questions, homework and detailed solutions. We are proud to offer our students the best HSC notes in the industry.

Ongoing Support

Weekly Tutorials

To supplement their learning, students can book up to 1 hour's worth of online tutorials each week. They can bring any questions they have, from our homework, or school and our brilliant teachers will guide them through. These tutorials are perfect for pre-exam preparation.

24/7 Online Support

Students are welcome to join our online Slack platform where they can ask questions 24/7! Our teachers will respond as soon as possible. Students can also ask for feedback on their responses and access exclusive resources such as past papers, worksheets and revision videos.

Workshops and Webinars

Throughout the year, in preparation for school assessments, we hold free workshops and webinars focusing on exam techniques as well as university related information such as degree selections, scholarships, medicine applications and more.

Study Space

Our newly renovated study space is available everyday during our opening hours (weekdays 4 pm – 8.30 pm, weekends 10 am – 5.30 pm). A great alternative to the library, students are welcome to come whether they have classes or not. Free wifi and snacks included!
