How chemistry tutoring works on the Gold Coast

  1. We match you with a tutor who knows QCE Chemistry. You keep the same tutor, at the same time, every week, all the way to your exams.

  2. Your tutor sets goals around your class and your assessments, then reviews your progress and adjusts the program as you go.

  3. Weekly lessons after school or on weekends, planned around your three internal assessments and the external exam.

  4. After every lesson you and your parents get a written report: what was covered, how it went and what comes next.

QCE Chemistry on the Gold Coast: a student and parent guide

How the QCE Chemistry internal assessments work, and how to prepare for the external exam.

Get matched with a chemistry tutor
Chapter 01

What changes after Year 10

Unit 1 adds the mole and expects formulas and balancing to be automatic, so the first term of Year 11 sets the pace for the rest.

Chapter 02

How the three internal assessments work

Three internal assessments make up half your result: a data test, a student experiment and a research investigation.

IA1 data test
10 per cent
IA2 student experiment
20 per cent
IA3 research investigation
20 per cent
External exam
50 per cent
Chapter 03

Preparing for the external exam

The external exam covers Units 3 and 4 and is the other half of your result. Steady practice across the year beats a late cram.

Chapter 04

Living over the border

Schools in Tweed Heads follow the NSW HSC. Students there take HSC Chemistry, and we match them with a tutor who knows it.

Questions about chemistry tutoring on the Gold Coast

From A$65 an hour, the same rate for Year 10 science as for Units 3 and 4. There’s no contract or sign-up fee, and you pay after each lesson.

Yes. We match you with a tutor who knows QCE Chemistry, so lessons follow your school’s units, the three internal assessments and the external exam.

Three internal assessments make up half the result: a data test (10 per cent), a student experiment (20 per cent) and a research investigation (20 per cent). The external exam at the end of Year 12 is the other 50 per cent.

Yes. Schools in Tweed Heads follow the NSW syllabus and the HSC rather than the QCE, so we match you with a tutor who knows HSC Chemistry and its depth studies.

Chemistry in Queensland schools, year by year

What Gold Coast students learn in chemistry at every year level, and how a chemistry tutor helps.

Get matched with a chemistry tutor

Years 9 and 10 science

Queensland schools teach Years 9 and 10 science from the Australian Curriculum, where chemistry covers atoms, the periodic table and reactions. QCE Chemistry Unit 1 builds directly on it.

Year 9

  • Protons, neutrons and electrons
  • Isotopes
  • Word and symbol equations
  • Conservation of mass
  • Acids, bases and neutralisation

Year 10

  • Periodic table patterns
  • How atoms form compounds
  • Balancing equations
  • Types of reactions
  • What changes reaction rate
Worked example

Balance: Zn + HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

AnswerZn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

How a tutor helps

Makes formulas and balancing automatic before Year 11, so Unit 1 can focus on the mole.

Based on the Australian Curriculum: Science Version 9.0, Years 9 and 10 (chemical sciences).

Year 11: Units 1 and 2

Unit 1, Chemical fundamentals, covers atoms, materials and reactions. Unit 2, Molecular interactions and reactions, covers gases, aqueous solutions, acidity and reaction rates.

Unit 1

  • Properties and structure of atoms
  • Properties and structure of materials
  • Chemical reactions and energy change
  • The mole

Unit 2

  • Intermolecular forces and gases
  • Aqueous solutions and acidity
  • Rates of chemical reactions
Worked example

How many moles of glucose are in 36.0 g? (M = 180.0 g mol−1)

Answer0.200 mol

How a tutor helps

Secures mole and concentration calculations in Year 11, because the data test and every Year 12 topic lean on them.

Based on the QCAA Chemistry 2025 General senior syllabus, Units 1 and 2.

Year 12: Units 3 and 4

Unit 3, Equilibrium, acids and redox reactions, and Unit 4, Structure, synthesis and design. Three internal assessments make up 50 per cent and the external exam the other 50 per cent.

Unit 3

  • Chemical equilibrium systems
  • Acids, bases and pH
  • Oxidation and reduction
  • Electrochemical cells

Unit 4

  • Organic structure and naming
  • Organic reactions
  • Polymers and biomolecules
  • Chemical synthesis and design
Worked example

Ethanoic acid reacts with ethanol. Which ester forms?

AnswerEthyl ethanoate (and water)

How a tutor helps

Plans the student experiment and research investigation step by step, then practises external exam questions under time.

Based on the QCAA Chemistry 2025 General senior syllabus, Units 3 and 4.
