Online AS Level Chemistry Tutor
One-to-one and small-group online Chemistry lessons for AS Level students, bridging IGCSE foundations and the greater depth of full A Level Chemistry.

Online AS Level Chemistry Lessons
AS is often where students first meet organic reaction mechanisms and more demanding calculations properly, after IGCSE's more descriptive approach. Lessons run entirely online and are aimed at that step up specifically, rather than repeating IGCSE-level material at a slightly harder difficulty.
Conceptual Understanding
AS Chemistry expects reasoning, not just recall — why a mechanism proceeds the way it does, why an equilibrium shifts, rather than a memorised rule applied without understanding it. Lessons build that reasoning explicitly, since it's what the harder A2 content the following year assumes is already solid.
Chemistry Calculations
AS introduces calculation types that go beyond IGCSE's mole and formula work — early equilibrium and energetics calculations among them. Lessons cover the method and why each step is there, not just a formula to substitute numbers into.
Structured Practice
Practice follows straight on from whatever concept a lesson just covered, rather than being left to a separate, disconnected revision session — so the idea gets used while it's still fresh, not weeks later.
Topic-wise Questions
Topic-wise AS Chemistry questions are being organised so a student can practise one topic at a time rather than working through a whole paper to reach the part that's relevant. See what's available so far.
MCQs
Quick-check multiple-choice questions for each AS topic are being added, for testing recall and spotting gaps between lessons.
Exam Technique
Reading the command word correctly, showing working in calculations, and not losing marks on questions the student actually understood — this is built into lessons rather than left until close to the exam. It's preparation, not a guarantee of any particular grade.
Board-Specific Preparation
AS Chemistry isn't structured identically across every board — preparation reflects that rather than assuming otherwise.
Cambridge
Cambridge examines AS Chemistry as its own distinct qualification, and it's tracked separately here.
Edexcel, AQA & OCR
These boards' first-year A Level content is covered as part of full A Level tuition, not as a separately tracked AS qualification on this site.
Why Learn With Naeem Bukhari?
Naeem Bukhari teaches AS Level Chemistry online, with lessons built specifically around the step up from IGCSE — concepts and calculations covered in the depth AS actually expects, not IGCSE material revisited at a slightly harder level.
How Lessons Work
Step 1
Message on WhatsApp
Get in touch to arrange a free AS Level Chemistry demo lesson.
Step 2
Free demo lesson
The demo covers the student's board and where the step up from IGCSE is hardest.
Step 3
Regular sessions
Lessons are scheduled around the student's own timetable.
Step 4
Concept, then practice
Each session builds the concept properly before moving into topic-wise or exam-style practice.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is AS Chemistry the same across every exam board?
No. Cambridge tracks AS Chemistry as its own distinct qualification between IGCSE and full A Level. Edexcel, AQA and OCR don't have a separately examined AS stage here — their first-year A Level content is covered as part of full A Level tuition instead.
Do you teach AS-stage Chemistry for boards other than Cambridge?
Yes — as part of A Level tuition for that board, covering the first-year content before moving into the second year's topics.
Is AS a standalone qualification or part of A Level?
That depends on the board and the school. For Cambridge, AS can be taken as a standalone qualification or as the first year of the full A Level — lessons support either route.
What does an AS Chemistry lesson actually cover?
One topic at a time — the concept first, then calculation or exam-style practice on that same topic.
Are online AS Level Chemistry lessons one-to-one?
Lessons are available one-to-one or in small groups, depending on what suits the student.
