My tutoring philosophy is Socratic—I believe in asking students questions to let them find their way to the correct and logical answer, and in them a... Read more
Reyniak
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. Each year I look forward to seeing the students do well in the course and often employ the use of metaphors, examples, and models in order to make chemistry less mysterious and ensure understanding of the material.

Tutoring in Math and Science at all levels

In my professional life, I was involved in a variety of training and mentoring activities. Since retiring... Read more

I like introducing students to a wide variety of music st... Read more
