Patient & effective chemistry and math tutor
My experience as a graduate TA has allowed me to obtain a lot of experience teaching general and organic chemistry.

To many, the sound of Math is synonymous with TOUGH, but through my learning development and experience, I discovered that math can become fun if basic concepts that are fundamental to the building blocks are well grasped.
