David Tan Chemistry - Invidious

David Tan Chemistry

Chemistry made clear — one concept at a time.

Clear, step-by-step Chemistry lessons for Singapore H2 / A-Level and O-Level students.

I explain difficult concepts, correct common misconceptions, and show the reasoning behind equations, structures, calculations and mechanisms. The goal is not simply to memorise Chemistry, but to understand why it works.

On this channel, you’ll find:

• A-Level and O-Level Chemistry explanations
• Short, focused concept lessons
• Exam-style MCQs and worked questions
• Organic, Physical and Inorganic Chemistry
• Common mistakes and misconceptions explained clearly

I’m David Tan, a Singapore-based Chemistry tutor and published author. I break each topic down to its essential idea before gradually building towards the full explanation and exam-level application.
