FAQ's

🧬 What are the key building blocks of chemistry?

The subject is built around atoms, molecules, elements, and compounds.

  • Every element consists of identical atoms with a specific number of protons.
  • When atoms share or transfer electrons, they form stable molecules.
  • An element contains only one type of atom, like oxygen or carbon.
  • A compound combines different elements in fixed proportions, such as water or carbon dioxide.

These distinctions help explain how matter behaves and why substances differ.

Remember: element equals one atom type, compound equals multiple elements bonded.

💰 What is the going rate for private chemistry lessons in Swords?

Private chemistry tuition in Swords averages €26/h hourly.

This rate depends on several factors:

  • Your current level (Junior Cycle, Leaving Cert, or university)
  • Your teacher's background and credentials (degree, teaching experience, exam results)
  • Lesson duration and frequency (weekly sessions, intensive revision, or exam prep)
  • Whether you choose (video calls, face-to-face, or hybrid)

Many tutors offer discounted rates for block bookings, which reduces your overall cost.

⚡ What rules describe how matter behaves in reactions?

These laws form the backbone of stoichiometry and reaction predictions.

  • This law explains why chemical equations must be balanced.
  • This principle allows chemists to predict how much product forms from given reactants.
  • The law of multiple proportions applies when two elements form more than one compound.
  • The law of reciprocal proportions describes how elements combine with a third element in predictable ratios.

Together, these laws allow chemists to predict reaction outcomes and calculate quantities.

Remember: nothing is lost in reactions, only rearranged.

Getting help for Leaving cert Chemistry 

The Leaving Cert can be a very stressful time, having to put lots of work and time into each subject trying to do your best in each one so that you get the results you need to do the course that you want at the end. 

Everyone has subjects that they are less knowledgeable or interested in, compared to some of their favourite ones. Finding the effort to put into working harder on the subjects that you find difficult, Chemistry, in this case, can be quite hard for many students or even impossible.  

Finding the subject hard or not as interesting as your other ones can really affect your performance and work ethic towards it and this is where getting some extra help and motivation will help tremendously in your performance in Leaving cert Chemistry.
 

With help from a tutor, you will be able to have any questions that you may have answered. This also means that when you go through problem sets during your grinds or go through past work, you can ask for clarification at the same time, meaning that you won't forget or dismiss your mistakes/questions. 

Doing Practice, practice and more practice with your tutor providing explanations to concepts and answers will very quickly get you to the level that you wish to be in Chemistry and will greatly increase your performance and your confidence as well. 

Being prepared and fully ready for the exam doesn't have to be a painful or slow process, even just a few grinds will have a very positive effect on you and your relationship with Chemistry.  

Why getting chemistry grinds can help you 

There are times when some parts of the subject are hard to grasp and truly understand on your own, or you don't have much time to spend, trying to fully learn the content as you are busy with your other subjects. 

Due to this, you can fall behind and not be fully ready for when exams come, adding to your stress and potentially affecting your results. 

Going through your coursework, past tests and practice questions with your tutor will allow you to learn from your mistakes and get answers for the concepts that you find difficult. Advice and further practice questions can be provided too from your tutor so that you can continue to improve on the aspects that you and your tutor believe you should focus on. 

Your tutor will have the time and knowledge to be able to answer any questions that you may have in detail, meaning that you can efficiently learn and make progress at a fast pace.  

Instead of struggling through by yourself, benefit from the aid offered by our helpful tutors and make great progress fast. 

Is Chemistry a good science to pick for the Leaving? 

It’s often recommended that students choose to do at least one science-related subject for the Leaving cert course as they are central to explaining how the world works but also many third-level courses require to have at least one of them as a minimum requirement.  

All three have quite a few differences between them and knowing which one or few to pick depends not only on your interest in the subject but also on what you are good at. For example, learning Biology relies on having a good memory and putting in the time to really learn the content and being able to write long pieces of text explaining how various systems work. 

Chemistry is a great choice for students who are interested in learning more about how interactions in the world work and how things function. It will give you an understanding of things that can come into use in real life and will also open many doors related to further study or work as many industries deal with chemical processes such as the fuel sector, and the creation of many everyday products. 

If you like learning about how the world functions and you have good analytical and reasoning skills then Chemistry could be a great choice.
