Overall, Mr Chan has played an invaluable role in helping me achieve a distinction for chemistry. ”

Izumi Tan , HCI 2011
Prior to joining Mr Chan’s class, I was scoring D & E for chemistry because I could not understand the concepts. Mr Chan explained solutions step by step, gave tons of practices and always availed himself to my questions. Subsequently I regained interest in chemistry and began to enjoy practicing from his resource of questions including challenging problems which ensured that I had internalised the concepts. Attending Mr Chan’s lessons was a pleasure and I hope many students would discover/rediscover the love for chemistry under him! Thank you for my distinction! “
