This is likely a good fit if…

The student is beginning IB Chemistry SL or needs a systematic foundation rebuild
Mole, equation and bonding ideas need to become more reliable
They need to move from remembering terms to explaining and applying them
They can follow the published live schedule and complete practice between lessons

WHAT THE STUDENT WILL WORK ON

The connected foundations behind SL questions

Lessons join calculations, models and evidence instead of treating each chapter as an isolated set of facts.

Particle models, measurement, formulae, equations and the mole

Atomic structure, electron configuration and periodic trends

Ionic, covalent and metallic bonding and structure–property reasoning

Organic structure, experimental evidence and clear SL assessment communication

HOW MÁRIÓ TEACHES

Diagnose. Understand. Apply. Track.

Each cycle creates new evidence for deciding what the student should do next.

1
Diagnose
Check the prerequisite calculation or model behind the current topic.
2
Understand
Build a complete explanation using particles, evidence and chemical language.
3
Apply
Apply it first with guidance and then in unfamiliar SL-style questions.
4
Track
Track repeated errors and set the next focused assignment.

Márió Széles teaching Chemistry to a student

MEET MÁRIÓ

Clear Chemistry teaching, with the reasoning made visible

Márió Széles graduated with First-Class Honours in Natural Sciences from University College London and pursued doctoral research in medicinal chemistry in Germany.

Márió’s UCL Natural Sciences degree and medicinal-chemistry research inform a calm, evidence-led approach. Six verified years of teaching help him distinguish a memory gap from a deeper model or calculation problem.

In a lesson, the student explains choices, tests the method on a new question and uses feedback to define the next priority.

THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE

Students know what to do; parents know what is being tracked.

The live lesson is one part. Assignments, deadlines, feedback and priorities stay together in the learning space.

The student receives

Particle models, measurement, formulae, equations and the mole
Targeted assignments and worked explanations
Feedback reviewed directly by Márió
Timetable, deadlines, personal error log and next priorities

A parent can see

Attendance and assignment completion
Current strengths, weaknesses and recurring errors
A concise explanation of the current priority
Progress information at appropriate checkpoints

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE

A correct idea becomes an assessment-ready explanation

The point is to show how the reasoning changes, not make a vague claim about teaching quality.

STARTING POINT

“NH₃ has hydrogen bonding.”

DEVELOPED REASONING

The polar N–H bonds and nitrogen lone pair allow NH₃ molecules to form hydrogen bonds. These stronger attractions require more energy to overcome than the forces between PH₃ molecules.

Chain: molecular structure → force → energy → observed property

FREQUENT QUESTIONS

What to know before enquiring

What comes after Standard Level I?

The route continues through Standard Level II and then SL Exam Preparation. Scientific Investigation support can be taken in parallel when relevant.

Does the course teach in English?

Yes. Lessons and Chemistry terminology are in English; Vietnamese pages provide clear information for parents and students in Vietnam.

What if the student only has one narrow gap?

Individual tuition may be more proportionate than a full group sequence. A short consultation can confirm that before any commitment.
