Experience
My goal is to help students learn to solve problems by themselves. I am willing to go the extra mile to help students succeed and try my best to be flexible. I am easygoing and try to make learning as fun and painless as possible! I hope students can develop the same passion that I have for science! I enjoy helping students understand chemistry by focusing on fundamental concepts and critical thinking. I can help with theoretical concepts, problem solving, or writing lab reports. I have a strong knowledge of organic synthesis, spectroscopy, mechanisms, medicinal chemistry, industrial organic chemistry, chromatography, instrumental analysis, applied analysis, and environmental analytical chemistry, among others. I have several years of experience as a private science tutor for high school and university students, both online and in person.
