Science

Our online Science program helps students explore Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and more through engaging, hands-on lessons that spark curiosity and deepen understanding. Our expert tutors make complex ideas simple, guide students through experiments, and help them write clear lab reports and prepare for exams. Whether strengthening foundational knowledge or advancing in higher-level science, we support students every step of the way, even if English is not their first language.

Weekly Structure:

  • Lessons combine concept explanation, language support (if needed), and practical application through inquiry-based activities.
     

  • Tailored to online environments — using virtual labs, simulations, and everyday materials.

Session 1: Concept & Vocabulary Building

​

  • Focus:
     

    • Introduce a science concept with visuals and examples.
       

    • Teach key scientific vocabulary and sentence structures (important for EAL learners).
       

  • Activities:
     

    • Teacher-led explanation with diagrams, animations, or virtual simulations.
       

    • Key vocabulary flashcards and pronunciation practice.
       

    • Watch a short experiment video and discuss what happens.
       

    • Answer guided questions and write simple explanations.
       

  • Examples by topic:
     

    • Week 1: Living & Non-Living Things (Biology)
       

    • Week 2: States of Matter (Chemistry)
       

    • Week 3: Forces & Motion (Physics)
       

    • Week 4: Earth, Sun & Moon (Earth Science)

Session 2: Inquiry & Application

​

  • Focus:
     

    • Hands-on activity or inquiry project.
       

    • Practice speaking & writing about what they observe and conclude.
       

  • Activities:
     

    • Virtual experiment or at-home experiment (e.g., water cycle in a bag, balloon rocket).
       

    • Students record observations in a simple lab report format: Question → Hypothesis → Method → Results → Conclusion.
       

    • Group discussions or presentations about findings.
       

    • Q&A session to review key concepts and clarify doubts.
       

  • Examples by topic:
     

    • Week 1: Sort objects into living/non-living and explain why.
       

    • Week 2: Freeze & melt water — describe the changes.
       

    • Week 3: Build a ramp and roll objects — discuss speed & friction.
       

    • Week 4: Track the moon phases and present observations.

Monthly Project Idea:

  • At the end of the month, students showcase what they’ve learned:
     

    • Poster or slideshow of an experiment.
       

    • Short video presentation explaining a concept in their own words.
       

    • Create a simple science model (e.g., volcano, solar system) and describe it.

Why This Approach Works:

  • Builds scientific thinking alongside language skills (for EAL students).

  • Uses inquiry-based learning to foster curiosity and problem-solving.

  • Teaches students to describe observations and write basic lab reports.

  • Engages students with interactive activities suited for online learning.
