Testimonial: Chemistry is a tricky subject for many students in JC, myself included, as I struggled to grasp concepts in school and the teachers often taught at a quick pace, so before I even understood a topic, they had already moved on to the next topic. However, Mr Puah conducts his lessons at an appropriate pace and explains complicated concepts in a concise and easily understandable manner, as well as making sure to pause at certain times during the lesson to check if we have doubts and if so, he would patiently clarify them. Thanks to Mr Puah, I no longer felt lost during chemistry lessons in school and better understood the content being taught." - Huang Renyuan, RJC, 2021/22

Thank you for being a such a great tutor!" - Eowyn Xie, TMJC, 2021/22

Bishan Classes

"the past 2 years under mr puah’s guidance has been nothing short of insightful and amazing. being someone who did decent in chem up till organic chem started, i struggled and felt lost. attending mr puah’s weekly lessons, i started to find the joy in chem and i started to appreciate the beauty and the rough parts of it. even in the middle of the night when in doubt, mr puah still manages to respond to my messages to clarify my problems. mr puah is more than an educator, he motivates and care for the well-being of his students and that is something i’ll miss most. thank u mr puah!" - Audrey Ng, ACJC, 2020/21

"Hello Mr Puah I got an A for chemistry. Thank you so much for your lessons. The flexibility between online and in class sessions really helped me manage my time more effectively. Plus the recordings of the lessons ensured that if I wasn’t able to give my 100% during lesson I would still be able to make full use of the session! With the help of your resources I managed to get myself an A for A levels, a feat I never would have imagined possible after getting a U for Mid year exams! " - Aryan, ASRJC, 2020/21

"Mr puah had played a big role in my understanding of organic chemistry. When i first came to his class, I was extremely lost with the already overwhelming content for chemistry. Thanks to the chemistry guru summary sheets and practices, I was able to not only just grow an understanding for chemistry but also a deeper appreciation of the chemical reactions which I have previously not notice or thought of. Mr puah has opened up the world of chemistry to me!" - Benjamin Too, CJC, 2020/21

"Hi Mr Puah, I got a B for chem, which was honestly a miracle because I screwed up paper 2 and paper 3 😅 Thank you so much for your constant help and guidance throughout my J2! Extremely grateful for your prompt and detailed answers to my questions!" - Kenneth Utomo, CJC, 2020/21

“I managed to get an A for chemistry and I want to thank you for your effort and dedication in helping us to improve! I was especially weak in inorganic chem, but with repeated exposure, revision, and explanations that are easy to understand, I became more comfortable with those topics over time. Organic chem seemed unpredictable to me, but your framework and method to answer organic chem questions really helped to break it down to something more structured and manageable. I definitely couldn’t have improved and achieved good results without your patient guidance!! ☺️” - Jolyn Tan, HCI, 2020/21

"hello mr puah, thank you for your guidance for the past 1.5 years! thank you for always answering our questions after class and online, and always being patient while explaining the more difficult concepts to us! your notes also have been really helpful as they were very informative even while being kept short! I got A for chem! thank you very much mr puah!" - Faith Yeong, SAJC, 2020/21

"mr puah is a very good teacher. he is very clear in his explanations and repeats those important concepts multiple times to ensure that his students will understand completely. he is also a very encouraging teacher that tells us to never give up. he try to help us as much as he can by replying as soon as possible. ever since i joined, i have really seen great improvements in my results throughout my journey" - Bernice Loh, TJC, 2020/21

"i turned to Mr Puah after getting U in chemistry for mid years after family friends recommended him to me. before joining, i used to really struggle with organic chemistry and found it hard to make the links between the concepts taught and the questions given. but within a few weeks, i was much better equipped and prepared to answer organic chemistry questions with confidence. even though i only managed an E grade by the time prelims came, i struggled hard and eventually got a B for A levels! Mr Puah is well versed in the ways of how teachers set exam questions and makes good predictions on what will come out with high accuracy. in fact, despite transition metals being a common last topic (CLT) in which questions set on the topic were to be crossed out, Mr Puah predicted that the A Levels still could touch on transition metals. on the day of the exam, the transition metals question was indeed not cancelled out but instead modified to make it attemptable by students at which many students were stumped by the appearance of the topic. lastly, Mr Puah is very approachable on whatsapp and his round the clock text consultation session came in handy for me when i was practicing challenging exam questions and did not understand. the only regret i have is not joining ChemistryGuru sooner to boost my grades! thank you for being such an approachable and knowledgeable tutor Mr Puah!" - Josiah Rachmat, TJC, 2020/21"

“For most of my J1 life, I was preoccupied with trying to make the best of my school experience in non academic aspects like joining Council and Football. Hence, I became very busy and could barely keep up with the pace of Chemistry lectures and tutorials. This culminated in me scoring an S for my promotional exams. I immediately panicked and began to search for additional outside help. I was fortunate to stumble upon Mr Puah as he was always very approachable and willing to answer whatever questions other students and I had to ask. This really helped me clarify my doubts and deepen my understanding of Chemistry and its fundamental concepts. He never hesitated to teach some extra stuff which helped to enhance our comprehension of the topic in concern. He also quickly adapted to the circumstances around the pandemic and was very accommodating to our needs, for example when I was unavailable to attend the Zoom class, he would give me access to online lecture videos regarding the same topic which he had recorded previously. Admirably, Mr Puah curates impeccable notes and his teaching methods make Chemistry easy to understand. Without him, I am certain my H2 chemistry 'A' for A Levels would have been much more difficult to achieve. I sincerely recommend you give his tuition class a try for I have zero regrets!” - Sean Wong, RI, 2019/20

"Hello Mr Puah, i got a B for chem. This is the highest grade I got for chem in my entire two years. The notes provided by you are very very concise and gets straight to the point, which makes memorising chemical equations and reactions so much more effortless. Furthermore drawing "cartoons" allowed for better illustration and understanding, which is so much better than the black and white pictures in our school lecture notes. Mr Puah's 2-3 pages of notes can easily replace my school's 26 pages of notes, simply because it cuts out all the unnecessary information. Mr Puah also teaches some out of syllabus stuff so as to allow better understanding. Overall, my chem grade would have been so much worst without this tuition ;)" - Goh Meng Huang, YJC, 2016/17

“Thank you Mr Puah for making Chem so easy to understand and for making Chem so interesting that it became my fav subject!!! Got an A for Chem!!! :)” - Dora Tay, ACJC, 2015/16

“I have never passed any of my school Chemistry exam except the first one. It was not that I never tried hard enough. I did. But I was never able to grasp Chemistry as it was taught in school or as was taught by my private tutor. Mr Puah made Chemistry simple for me to understand. He provides structure during his lessons through the use of mind maps, tables, etc so that I could follow his lessons with little difficulty. These are also very useful for revision purposes. In addition, he uses examples to illustrate key concepts; just the right number so that I am not overwhelmed. He gave pointers for eg. common mistakes, highlighted misconceptions and imparted vital exam skills that helped me gain confidence; enough to feel motivated to take on more and more questions to challenge myself. My only regret is not attending Mr Puah's lessons earlier. I started attending Mr Puah's classes in July during my second year in JC. I sat for the GCE A exam in November and obtained a B. Not a big deal for most people but to me, it was a feat. He could, in only 4 months, do something that others couldn't do for me in one and a half years. Thank you, Mr Puah :)” - Najat Binte Wahid, ACJC, 2015/16

“Struggling with JC chem? Finding it hard to push your chem grades past a pass? Chem guru is your answer. The transition from secondary school to JC chem was not kind to me at all.
