About Me

I am a passionate and experienced university lecturer with over three decades of teaching, research, and industrial experience in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. I believe learning works best when complex ideas are broken down clearly, patiently, and connected to real-life applications.

My teaching style is structured, interactive, and student-centred. I take time to understand how each student thinks, where their difficulties lie, and then adapt my explanations accordingly. Whether you are a secondary-school student building foundations, a university student struggling with core concepts, or a postgraduate student working on research problems, I guide you step by step until the subject becomes clear and manageable.

I am calm, encouraging, and demanding in a positive way — I push students to reach their full potential while creating a supportive environment where questions are always welcome. I particularly enjoy working with motivated students, curious learners, and those who feel they are “not good at science” and want to rebuild confidence.

With my strong background in theory, problem-solving, and practical applications, I help students not only pass exams, but truly understand what they are studying.

If you're looking for an organised and professional teacher to help you achieve your academic goals, look no further! The IB science subjects can be extremely difficult to go through on your own, and I'll be glad to use my experience to help you out.

A couple of things I like to do:

- Initial test or interview to assess your level.
- Use Notion as a platform to share all my resources.
- Use mock papers that lay out the exercises JUST like in the real exams, so you will feel really prepared.
- I give homework when appropriate.
- I provide any kind of mentoring and college counseling. People who study Biology and Chemistry usually want to pursue a clinical career-- and that is a complex process!

Chemistry Calculations Masterclass | IGCSE & IB

### Master Chemistry Calculations and Maximize Your Exam Marks

Do you understand Chemistry theory but struggle when you face calculation questions?

Do you lose marks because of **formula selection, unit conversions, mathematical steps, significant figures, or poorly structured working**?

This masterclass is designed specifically for **IGCSE and IB Chemistry students** who want to build strong confidence in quantitative Chemistry and improve their exam performance.

I’m **Dr. Basil Magdi**, a Chemistry tutor with **10+ years of experience teaching international curricula**, including IGCSE, IB, GCSE, A-Level, and American Chemistry. With a background in Pharmacy and Quality Management, I use a systematic, step-by-step approach that helps students understand not only *how* to calculate the answer, but *why* each step is required.

### What You Will Master

**Core Quantitative Chemistry – IGCSE & IB**

• The mole concept and Avogadro's constant
• Relative atomic mass and relative formula mass
• Molar mass calculations
• Balanced equations and stoichiometric calculations
• Limiting reactants
• Percentage yield and atom economy

• Reacting masses and volumes

**IB Chemistry – Additional Skills**

• Uncertainty calculations
• Percentage uncertainty and percentage error
• Significant figures and decimal places
• Data processing and evaluation
• Uncertainty in experimental results

### How We Work

Rather than simply memorizing formulas, you will learn a **repeatable method for solving Chemistry calculations**:

**Understand → Identify → Choose the equation → Substitute → Calculate → Check → Give the correct units**

We will work through progressively more challenging problems and use **IGCSE/IB-style exam questions and past papers** to develop speed, accuracy, and exam technique.

### This Masterclass Is Ideal For Students Who:

✓ Struggle with Chemistry calculations
✓ Understand the theory but cannot apply it to questions
✓ Make frequent calculation or unit-conversion errors
✓ Find stoichiometry and mole calculations difficult
✓ Need help with titration and concentration problems
✓ Want to improve their exam technique
✓ Are preparing for IGCSE or IB Chemistry exams
✓ Want structured practice and targeted feedback

### What You Can Expect

✓ Clear, step-by-step explanations
✓ Personalized instruction based on your current level
✓ Extensive calculation practice
✓ Exam-style questions and past-paper practice
✓ Identification and correction of recurring mistakes
✓ Guidance on showing working clearly to earn method marks
✓ Strategies for checking whether your answer is reasonable
✓ Focused preparation for IGCSE and IB examinations

**The goal is not simply to memorize Chemistry formulas — it is to develop the confidence and problem-solving skills to approach unfamiliar calculation questions successfully.**

Book a lesson and let's turn Chemistry calculations from a source of lost marks into one of your strongest areas.

Welcome to my Foundation Course in Science and Maths, specially designed for primary, secondary, and high school students in Amsterdam. This course aims to build a strong foundation in these critical subjects, ensuring students excel academically and develop a genuine love for learning.

My teaching approach is focused on making learning enjoyable and engaging. I incorporate interactive activities and hands-on experiments to bring Science and Maths concepts to life. By involving students in these dynamic learning experiences, I aim to transform abstract concepts into tangible understanding. Each session is thoughtfully designed to keep students interested and motivated, minimizing fatigue and maximizing retention.

I believe in simplifying complex topics, breaking them down into easy-to-understand segments. This approach helps students grasp and retain challenging concepts with ease. Techniques such as mnemonic devices, visual aids, and real-life examples are integral to my method, ensuring that formulas and concepts are not just memorized, but truly understood.

Regular assessments are conducted to track student progress and identify areas needing improvement. These tests also prepare students for their school exams, ultimately boosting their confidence. I understand the importance of keeping parents informed and involved in their child’s academic journey. That's why I provide weekly reports detailing their child’s progress, strengths, and areas for improvement. This continuous feedback loop ensures that parents are aware of their child’s development and can support their learning at home.

Encouraging words and positive feedback are integral to my teaching method. I strive to build students' self-confidence and to instill a love for learning through positive reinforcement. Setting achievable goals for each student, I celebrate their successes and motivate them to strive for excellence. This goal-setting approach not only drives academic success but also fosters a sense of accomplishment and self-worth.

As a tutor, my satisfaction comes from seeing my students excel and reach their full potential. My ultimate goal is to empower students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in Science and Maths. I am always available to support my students, offering additional help and resources as needed to ensure their success.

I foster an open environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, no matter how simple they may seem. This curiosity drives deeper understanding and encourages a proactive approach to learning. By incorporating games, puzzles, and interesting activities, I ensure that learning remains fun and engaging, keeping students excited about the subjects.

Join my Foundation Course in Science and Maths and watch your child develop a strong foundation, confidence, and a genuine love for these essential subjects. Let’s work together to achieve academic excellence and make learning a fun and rewarding experience. “Excel in Subjects, Soar in Confidence!”
