Rui
General chemistry, Organic chemistry, Biochemistry and MCAT tutor
I am currently studying and working in the Brain and Mind Institution at Weill Cornell Medical School. Before, I was a Ph.D. student at Loyola University Chicago, Major in Chemistry and Biochemistry, where I began my work in medical research. At the same time, I was a TA for lecture courses in general chemistry and biochemistry, and for a chemistry lab course for nursing students. During summer I also taught courses in general chemistry and an organic chemistry. I believe that text books ar...

Rui is most definitely a master of her subject! She is able to explain all the problems I'm working on without any reference and knows what she's talking about. I feel very comfortable with her, she listens to my ideas and bounces off of how I think when correcting me. After having her explain material and help me with homework problems, my next test grades went up a whole grade! I feel that I am learning in the simplest way because of her help! She's wonderful!

Rui does such a great job of taking an overwhelming task and breaking it down to something that is understandable. She speaks the language that is organic chemistry. She also has great resources and insight to what you can prepare for the most and resources that can help you prepare even more. Highly recommended!!!

I've been working with Rui over the past semester with Organic Chemistry - a decision that has paid off tremendously. I feel leaps and bounds more prepared for my exams than my fellow classmates, and I absolutely attribute my high grade in the class to the time I've spent with Rui. She's an extremely patient tutor, and does a great job of explaining concepts. Most importantly, she keeps things simple, and focuses on the most important aspects to master. In addition, she is always available to help and is extremely easy to book an appointment with - even at the last minute! Whether you're a master at chemistry, or completely clueless, Rui can definitely help you! I will certainly continue to work with her for the rest of the semester, as well as the next.
Moo B. from Wilmette, IL
She was great and mastered organic chemistry. She was a fine person and knows her subject!! We tried many different tutors before, finally we met her. We are so lucky to use Wyzant's tutoring service.
Madeline V. from Chicago, IL
I'm taking organic chemistry this summer, and the accelerated nature of learning a new chapter of material every other day was really overwhelming. Rui helped by making things more simple and demonstrative of the overall concept! She's very patient when explaining and practicing problems with students.
Lauren S. from Chicago, IL
Rui explained my confusion with my Chemistry pre-lab, my Quantum Explorations questions, and the questions in my practice exam. She explained the areas I was having difficulty with until I fully understood it. Best tutoring session I've ever had.
Gabriella B. from Evanston, IL
Rui explains everything so well and is extremely helpful! She made a subject I found difficult much easier to grasp and I did great in the course
Rick M. from Long Island City, NY
Very impressed on her knowledge and expertise in Organic Chemistry........she didn't even need the book! Would defiantly use her again....I recommend her to anyone struggling with organic chemistry.

It was a review for my Organic Chemistry exam. She was very patient and super helpful. I learned more in two hours than all year with my current teacher.
