I am an experienced chemistry tutor looking for students!
As both a tutor and a TA I really enjoy working with determined students who want to learn. I believe that a lot of students think they are bad at chemistry because their instructors have not taught them properly. I like to try to get students to understand why chemistry is important and interesting before starting on any particular subject. With this method I've managed to have students who hated chemistry in the beginning come to appreciate it by the end of their course. When it comes to... Read more

There is nothing more that I love about tutoring than helping students who are having difficulty in a subject. I utilize various teaching techniques to create the best mode of learning for that particular student. If I cannot help the student for whatever reason, either due to a personality clash or a lack of effort on the student's part, then I shall drop that student. It helps no one if the student cannot learn! I have taught in public high school and middle school for thirty-four years... Read more
