Enthusiastic and driven individual who is ready to offer mentoring in STEM subjects such as Chemistry, Biology and Science to IGCSE and A-levels students.

As a Cambridge-certified educator, I offer private tutoring in Chemistry and Science for Cambridge Checkpoint, IGCSE, and A-Levels, providing tailored support for student success. My creative approach integrates real-life applications and analogies to science, making it more relatable to students while breaking down the perceived rigidity of the subject.

In addition to tutoring, I run Science Play classes to engage students with hands-on experiments, which are designed to develop scientific enquiry and critical thinking skills. I also collaborate with fellow educators to create immersive holiday camps and party events, offering unique experiences that blend education and fun—showing that science is enjoyable and that everyone can “Science”!

Learning STEM subjects doesn't always have to be difficult and boring as I'll make sure to make each lesson a fun-filled one! You may find out more about me via my LinkedIn: Jue Theng Soo and my company's Instagram: @equationac ; LinkedIn: Equation Academy
