Hi, I'm Adele Agha-Masri

Founder and Head Tutor of Chem-Sense Tutoring, experienced VCE Chemistry teacher and VCAA VCE Chemistry Written Examination Assessor.

If you're looking for an experienced online VCE Chemistry tutor who combines expert teaching with real insight into the VCE assessment process, you've come to the right place.

For the past 17 years, I have specialised in teaching VCE Chemistry, helping hundreds of Year 11 and Year 12 students develop the knowledge, confidence and examination skills needed to succeed. Throughout my teaching career, I have built a reputation for making challenging Chemistry concepts easy to understand while creating a supportive learning environment where every student can thrive.

One of the greatest privileges of my career has been watching students transform their confidence and achieve results they never thought possible. Many of my students have earned VCE Chemistry study scores of 40 and above, while countless others have significantly improved their SAC results, examination performance and overall understanding of Chemistry. Every student's journey is different, and my goal is always to help each individual achieve their personal best.

​One of the key advantages of learning with Chem-Sense Tutoring is my experience as a VCAA VCE Chemistry Written Examination Assessor, a position I have proudly held for 10 years.

Each year, I assess VCE Chemistry examination responses, giving me first-hand knowledge of the standards expected by VCAA and the common mistakes that prevent students from achieving higher marks. This experience allows me to teach not only the Chemistry content required by the Study Design but also the examination techniques, scientific communication and problem-solving skills that examiners are looking for.

This unique perspective helps students approach SACs and the final VCE Chemistry examination with greater confidence, accuracy and understanding.

Why I Chose Chemistry

My passion for Chemistry began in high school, inspired by an exceptional Chemistry teacher whose enthusiasm and ability to explain complex concepts completely changed the way I viewed the subject.

That experience shaped the educator I am today.

I understand that many students begin VCE Chemistry feeling overwhelmed or lacking confidence. My mission is to change that by creating lessons that simplify difficult concepts, encourage curiosity and build genuine understanding rather than relying on memorisation alone.

There is nothing more rewarding than seeing students gain confidence, improve their results and discover that Chemistry really can make sense.

Why Students Choose Chem-Sense Tutoring

Chem-Sense Tutoring was created to provide students with far more than a traditional weekly tutoring session.

Every lesson is carefully designed to maximise understanding, strengthen scientific thinking and prepare students for success in both SACs and the final VCE Chemistry examination.

Students benefit from:

• Interactive online VCE Chemistry lessons

• Professionally designed teaching presentations

• Comprehensive worksheets and revision resources

• Lesson recordings for revision and independent study

• Regular formative assessments to monitor progress

• Extensive SAC-style and VCE examination-style practice questions

• Individual feedback and personalised learning plans

Every aspect of the Chem-Sense Tutoring program has been developed using my extensive classroom experience together with my ongoing work assessing VCE Chemistry examinations.
