The New Zealand education system isn’t perfect.
The quality of your education depends so much on classroom experiences; the behaviour of other students, the teacher and the learning activities.
NCEA is packed with content and teachers have to move through the topics too quickly. This means you aren’t given the time to consolidate your learning, which is why it can feel like you have to memorise thousands of facts.
Smaller schools often don’t have access to specialist chemistry teachers with the knowledge and experience to help their students understand NCEA chemistry and very few schools have the time to teach the study skills that are essential to success.
AECN Education lets every student in New Zealand learn from a passionate, experienced Chemistry teacher.
The online resources bring the chemistry classroom into your home, no matter where you live or which school you attend.
You gain the skills to learn independently so you feel prepared and confident to sit your NCEA exams.
There won’t always be a teacher there to break a subject down into key points and present the information. Learning how to learn means you will always be able to do this!
"Thank you so much for all the time and effort you have put into teaching me this year! I have really enjoyed your teaching style and the enthusiasm in which I have been taught. I have felt well prepared for all of my standards and hopefully will do you proud in my external exams."
"Thank you for making my education in science fun. I appreciate that you always tell me what I need to do to improve my results."
"You always encouraged me to think for myself and try to work out the answers."
The AECN Education YouTube channel is dedicated to helping NCEA students improve how they study, develop exam strategies and understand NCEA Chemistry.
