Chemistry is a tough subject that can take many years of study to master. Whether it’s learning about organic chemistry, analytical, physical, inorganic or biochemistry, the likelihood that you will understand every aspect of the topic is small. That being said, chemistry plays a pivotal role in high school and university education, with many students working towards obtaining a degree in this difficult yet equally fascinating subject. Although you will have to work hard to gain proficiency in chemistry, fully understanding it will teach you many useful skills, from how to be objective, to how to reason and figure out problems. Alongside this, it will push you to be disciplined and help you to develop a critical eye for detail, in and outside the classroom. According to studies, learning complex subjects like chemistry can also benefit you in the real world, enabling you to solve day to day problems in a logical manner. However, if you are struggling to get a grasp on a variety of chemistry-related subjects (from acid, bases, and ph, to atoms, protons and neutrons) and are nervous about your chances of passing your exams, you could benefit from hiring a Derby-based private tutor to assist you on your learning journey.

Learning Chemistry in Derby

Situated on the banks of the River Derwent, Derby is a beautiful city in which to start chemistry lessons. With its wide range of stunning green areas, such as Darley Park, Alvaston Park, Allestree Park, and Markeaton Park, there is always somewhere peaceful to study and read your chemistry homework. In the heart of Derby’s Cathedral Quarter (a historic location lined with stunning cobbled streets) lies the city’s famous marketplace, and it is here where you will have the best opportunity of finding bookstores to purchase required chemistry books. Elsewhere in the city, there are plenty of interesting locations to visit outside of your scheduled lessons, such as Calke Abbey, Derby Museum & Art Gallery and Hardwick Hall.

How can you improve in chemistry?

Learning chemistry takes many hours! Unfortunately, even the most talented of students are unlikely to master chemistry without many years of practice. However, there are several tips and tricks that can help you to improve at a faster rate. First and foremost, it’s a good idea to spend some time practising your mathematical skills as these play a massive role in chemistry lessons. Next, you should make sure you thoroughly understand the concepts you are studying before moving on to more advanced ones. It can be tempting to rush ahead but this could leave gaps in your knowledge, and negatively impact your chances of passing exams and tests. Instead, ask your teacher (or tutor) to explain any topics that you may find confusing. Last but not least, make sure not to get into a habit of putting off studying for more interesting pastimes. Yes, studying chemistry can be boring sometimes, but the extra practice will go a long way in helping you to master the subject!

 

Why Hire a Private Tutor?

When it comes to difficult subjects like chemistry, having only one method of learning could hurt your chances of fully understanding everything there is to know about the topic. Although classroom education is highly beneficial, it can often lack the one to one tutoring that many students so desperately need. More often than not, teachers are far too busy to spend time with each student, due to time constraints and other factors that are out of their control. Over time, this can lead to students falling behind in chemistry class, or losing confidence and giving up on the subject. Thankfully, this doesn’t need to be the case when a private tutor is there to provide a helping hand to struggling students. Compared to classroom teachers, private tutors are flexible, and their lessons are purely designed to focus on your requirements. No matter the area of chemistry you wish to master, be it in environmental chemistry, atomic structure, stoichiometry or physical chemistry, a private tutor will adapt his or her lessons to target your weaknesses and improve your strengths. Furthermore, using their expert knowledge, they will prepare you for exams by setting specialized mock tests. In addition, they will also provide their students with a wealth of other useful tips, such as how to properly take notes in lessons, how to create flashcards for memorization, how to stay calm during exams, and how to study effectively outside of lessons. What’s more, sessions with tutors are a perfect fit for students who struggle to concentrate in loud environments, such as classrooms and study halls. Unlike lessons at school or university, you can choose when and where you study with your tutor. This could be at the park, your home, a cafe, or in any other location where you feel comfortable.

If hiring a private chemistry tutor sounds like something that would benefit you, why not use Superprof?

From here, you can browse and compare their profiles, and find the one that fits your learning requirements.

Firstly, you should clarify what your goals are and which area of chemistry you are interested in pursuing. Some tutors are experienced in biochemistry and other branches of chemistry, while others are experts at teaching A level or BSC level students. Secondly, don’t forget to discuss your budget as this can help you to decide how many lessons to take monthly. In general, the average rate of a chemistry tutor in Derby is £17 an hour. However, this can vary depending on the tutor’s experience and qualifications, as well as the frequency and duration of your lessons. If your tutor needs to travel to meet you, it’s also important that you clarify whether their travel cost is factored into the price of your lessons.
