British Columbia High School Chemistry Tutoring
Targeted Help for British Columbia Courses (Science 10, Chemistry 11, Chemistry 12)
Mastering the BC Ministry of Education curriculum requires strong foundational skills, precise mathematical reasoning, and comprehensive lab concept mastery. I provide specialized 1-on-1 online tutoring tailored explicitly to BC high school science and chemistry courses.
Book a BC Tutoring SessionDetailed British Columbia Curriculum Breakdown
Here is the unit-by-unit breakdown of the core competencies and big ideas covered across British Columbia high school chemistry levels:
Science 10 (Chemistry Strand)
Science 10 builds the foundational concepts of chemical change and atomic structure before students branch into senior sciences:
Chemical Reactions & Equations
Understanding conservation of mass, writing chemical formulas, naming ionic and molecular compounds, and balancing various reaction types.
Acids, Bases & Energy
Exploring acid-base properties, the pH scale indicators, and energy changes (exothermic and endothermic processes) in chemical changes.
Chemistry 11
Chemistry 11 introduces quantitative chemistry and theoretical models of matter with a strong emphasis on laboratory skills and problem-solving:
Atoms, Molecules & The Mole
The mole as a measurement quantity, molar mass, percent composition, empirical/molecular formulas, and stoichiometry calculations.
Solutions & Solubility
Solution concentration, dilutions, solubility equilibria, and predicting precipitates in aqueous reactions.
Organic Chemistry
Bonding characteristics of carbon, naming and drawing simple hydrocarbons, and exploring functional groups.
Chemistry 12
An advanced senior course focusing on reaction kinetics, dynamic equilibrium systems, solubility product, and acid-base chemistry:
Reaction Kinetics
Collision theory, factors affecting reaction rates, activation energy, and catalysts in chemical systems.
Chemical Equilibrium
Dynamic equilibrium principles, equilibrium constant expressions (Kc), Le Chatelier's principle, and solubility equilibria (Ksp).
Acids, Bases & Titrations
Brønsted-Lowry acid-base theory, Ka and Kb calculations, pH/pOH curves, hydrolysis, and buffer solutions.
BC Chemistry Olympiad (BCCo) & National Contests
BC students have access to exceptional competitive opportunities, including the annual British Columbia Chemistry Olympiad (BCCo) held every April. Designed for Grades 10 and 11 students, it serves as a premier stepping stone to national contests like the Canadian Chemistry Contest (CCC) and CCO. I provide targeted coaching to help BC students excel in these exams.
