H2 BIOLOGY Notes – What you will get

My set of H2 BIOLOGY notes is organized by topic and groups for your convenience. Each topic includes descriptive notes, a concept map (CMAP) and bonus high quality diagrams.


The descriptive notes are written for ease of reading. I align it closely to the official SEAB syllabus so that you know what is in and what is not. In addition, I point out what concepts are unnecessary and alternative terms some JCs use. Concepts are cross-referenced to other relevant topics. This allows inter-topic linking and easy exploration. Each set of notes also come with corrections of phrasing errors students make during exams. As well as answers to review questions.


The CMAP links different concepts/key terms together. This is to help you have a bird’s eye view of the topic and how they relate to each other.


High quality diagrams in colour accompany my notes (free) so as to help you visualise concepts. They contain review questions I select at the end of each set for practice. As well as old/new syllabus comparison.

H2 BIOLOGY Notes – Why get it

School notes frequently contains information that is confusing as well as overwhelming. There’s no flow and it feels like a mishmash of cut and paste texts which makes it hard to read.


In addition, diagrams accompanying the notes are of poor quality. And for difficult concepts, there aren’t any helpful diagrams.


And most importantly, there are serious errors in language, word usage together with concept errors.


This is particularly evident in J2 topics such as those in extension.


I seek to remedy this and make my notes succinct and readable. This will be helpful especially for students who are weak and require easy to read H2 Biology notes.


I also format it so that it is easy to navigate around the pages with clickable links.


This set of H2 biology notes will therefore be an important companion to your A level exams.



Can you help me with my H2 Biology questions?

I know that sometimes you may want someone to help unravel difficult concepts.


But you are able to manage majority of the syllabus.

What my student say

Cole Lim (RI 2017)
Lessons with Ben are crazy exciting. You never know what’s going to happen in the next class, and he has a knack for twisting things up so lessons are never boring. In fact, his lessons are the ones I most look forward to every week, because he doesn’t just teach us content, but so much more, such as life skills and study hacks. He focuses not only on the A level syllabus, but also aspires to teach us to cultivate ourselves as people with futures far larger than the A levels. What other teacher will teach us the science of sleep and willpower to help us achieve the greatest possible efficiency in our studying?

The content he teaches is so amazing as well. Ever since his lesson on DNA and the central dogma, I’ve never forgotten the details about the process, and from then onwards I’ve been able to correct my classmates in school whenever they’re confused about it (it is a rather complex topic). All in all, Ben is a wonderful tutor, one who cares about us as distinct individuals, and not just as customers or as school grades.
