Sec 4 G2 Combined Science (Chemistry/Biology) tuition at Ancourage Academy in Singapore (Bishan & Woodlands) provides final SEC exam preparation with past paper practice, targeted topic revision, and exam strategy coaching. Our small-group classes (3-6 students) ensure personalised support across both chemistry and biology.
What Makes Us Different
Our proven teaching methodology combines evidence-based approaches for maximum learning effectiveness
Ebbinghaus Memory Theory
Self-directed retrieval scheduling where students learn to identify their own weak areas and plan review cycles accordingly — developing the metacognitive skills essential for A-Level success and independent university study.
Socratic Questioning
Rigorous dialectic questioning where students must justify their reasoning and consider counterarguments — 'What evidence supports this?' and 'Where could this logic break down?' — building the analytical rigour expected in higher education.
Bruner's Scaffolding
Minimal scaffolding with maximum autonomy — tutors pose challenging problems and observe, intervening only when students are genuinely stuck — preparing students to structure their own approach to unfamiliar problems.

Frequently Asked Questions
SEC G2 Combined Science uses a 1-6 grade scale (Grade 1 highest, Grade 5 pass). The examination covers both chemistry and biology in one paper, requiring efficient time management across both disciplines.
We recommend alternating between disciplines and focusing on diagram-heavy biology topics alongside equation-based chemistry topics. Our tuition provides structured revision plans covering both subjects systematically.
Yes. G2 Combined Science (Chem/Bio) is particularly relevant for healthcare-related polytechnic courses such as nursing and allied health. A strong grade maximises admission chances.
Our small-group classes are intentionally kept between 3 and 6 students so every learner receives close guidance, timely feedback, and ample practice.
Each lesson is 2 hours, providing ample time for thorough coverage of topics and interactive learning.
Yes. All lesson materials and worksheets are provided and included in the fees. Students should bring regular stationery and, where applicable, school textbooks/workbooks for reference.
Yes. Our materials and pacing align with the MOE syllabus. External syllabuses (e.g. IGCSE, IB) are available upon request.
