Homogeneous solutions, where only one phase is visible. Sugar dissolved in water.
Heterogeneous mixtures is where there adre two or more phases visible. chicken soup muddy water, foggy air..

Well I suppose the simplest explanation would be that if you had a bunch of chemicals reacting and they were all gases, then you would have a homogeneous chemical system.
3 H2(g) + N2(g) -----------------> 2 NH3(g)
If the reaction occurs so that all the chemicals are dissolved in water (aq) that might be considered homogeneous as well.
If one or more of the chmicals is a solid while the rest are aq solutions that might be heterogeneous.
I'm not too sure what your teacher is considering here.
If you are just talking about the difference between homogeneous and heterogeneous, then that is much simpler
homogeneous mixtures are mixtures in which you cannot see the individual parts. e.g. stainless steel, clear tea, even 7-up if it is not shaken.
heterogeneous mixtures are mixtures in which you can see the parts. e.g. raisin bran cereal, the concret in a sidewalk, chocolate chip cookies and so one.
