Márió Széles combines First-Class Chemistry training at UCL, medicinal-chemistry doctoral research and a teaching process built around diagnosis, clear explanation, deliberate practice and useful feedback.

The verified six-year teaching record applies specifically to IB Chemistry SL and HL. Current Cambridge support covers Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry 0620 and Cambridge International AS & A Level Chemistry 9701 through syllabus-aligned online one-to-one tuition; IB experience is not presented as retrospective Cambridge teaching experience.

IB students can learn online across Vietnam, with selected small-group and in-person IB options in Da Nang when published. Cambridge tuition is online one-to-one only.

From scientific research to clearer teaching

What research experience changes in a Chemistry lesson.

Academic credentials matter only when they improve how a student understands, reasons and communicates Chemistry.

  1. Molecular structure and reaction pathways

    Students learn causal explanations rather than disconnected rules

  2. Experimental design and evidence

    Students learn to interpret unfamiliar data, practical evidence and evaluation questions

  3. Breaking research problems into testable questions

    Complex IGCSE, AS & A Level and IB questions are divided into manageable reasoning steps

  4. Scientific precision and uncertainty

    Calculations, units, assumptions and conclusions become more defensible

NH3

Hydrogen bonding

Polar N–H bonds and a lone pair allow stronger intermolecular attraction.

Why does ammonia boil at a higher temperature than phosphine?structure → forces → energy → observation
PH3

No significant hydrogen bonding

Weaker attractions between molecules require less energy to overcome.

  1. 1

    Diagnose

    Find the first misconception or method break.

  2. 2

    Understand and repair

    Rebuild the missing concept or procedure.

  3. 3

    Apply

    Use it in unfamiliar questions and data.

  4. 4

    Track

    Record errors, feedback and independence to plan what follows.

Visible progress between lessons

Students see the next step. Parents see the plan.

The learning space connects lessons, assignments, feedback and priorities so progress is visible as specific actions—not a vague promise.

Teaching in Vietnam

Teaching is in English, with Vietnamese information for parents, and online nationwide. Only selected IB Chemistry options may run in person in Da Nang; Cambridge tuition is online one-to-one.

Professional boundaries and safety

Communication with minors follows a channel agreed with the parent. The tutor does not produce assessed work for students; AI may support the process, with human review available.
