Raghu
Highly Experienced US-PhD Tutor for Organic Chemistry
I earned my PhD in organic chemistry at the University of Kentucky, Lexington, USA. During my PhD, I worked on developing a Web-based online homework program for the undergraduate organic chemistry students to learn and test their knowledge. This work resulted in a publication in the Journal of Chemical Education. I finished my postdoctoral research at the City College of New York. Later, I worked as an Advanced Scientist at Momentive Performance Materials. I am currently working as an a...

Raghu is a great tutor. He had flexible availability and worked to accommodate my busy schedule. I was completely satisfied with the tutoring sessions that we had. He is very knowledgeable in the subject of organic chemistry, and explained difficult concepts patiently and in a way that was easy to understand. Thanks to his tutoring I was able to gain a strong foundation in organic chemistry and get an A on the final and in the class. I highly recommend Raghu as a tutor.

Raghu is tutor you must have! Trust me on this. He is very knowledgeable about Organic Chemistry and takes his time, for you, to fully understand the subject. The amount of knowledge I took away with each session, truly put me ahead of the game in my class. Highly recommended!
Gerson S. from New York, NY
He is very professional and explained the material patiently. He also encouraged me through out the lesson and made sure I understood all concepts covered in my organic chemistry class.
Thomas C. from Ossining, NY
Great tutor. Very knowledgeable, prepared and convenient. Very glad to have found him! I think he just might get me through this semester! Raghu knows a great deal about organic chemistry and was able to explain the solutions to the chemistry problems to me really well. I definitely recommend him.

Raghu is an amazing tutor! He is seriously magnificent and I am not over exaggerating. He teaches me every single problem step by step and takes his time and repeats it over and over until I understand completely what I am doing. Everyone knows that Organic Chemistry can be really hard and complicated but Raghu reads my class notes, my textbook and goes over everything and simplifies it in order to allow me to understand what I have to do. He is also very flexible with his time and is always available if you have any questions. I have had 2 quizzes and one exam so far and I am an A student as of now. I received a 95, 100, and 100. Seriously, you will not regret having him as your tutor. I am shocked in how well I have been doing. I never thought I would be able to achieve these scores in Organic Chemistry. My mom is proud, my professor is proud and Raghu is extremely proud that his hard work is paying off. I will continue to take lessons with him weekly until I am completely done with Organic Chemistry. It is worth it!!!

Raghu is an extremely knowledgeable and helpful tutor. He has the ability to make even the most difficult concepts easier to understand! By far the best tutor I've ever had in general. I highly recommend him!
Caroline O. from Fresh Meadows, NY
Raghu was great at breaking down information so that I could understand and learn. Organic chemistry is tough but Raghu made it simple to understand. I would recommend him to anyone who needs tutoring.
Johaen N. from Flushing, NY
He's an example of a great teacher. The way he explains the lesson is very understandable! We need more tutors like Mr. Raghu

To me, Raghu has been a godsend for organic chemistry! I was having a lot of difficulty keeping up in class and felt as if there were some nebulous magic taking place that I was just sort of expected to accept and memorize the results of… As someone with limited memory and wandering attention, I felt pretty hopeless at the prospect of passing, much less excelling, in that class. Working with Raghu truly illuminated the ‘magic’ I was so certain was beyond my capacity. He really explained the concepts, priorities, and most importantly, the thought process behind all of the reactions I was learning in class. He also helped me catch up on in the areas that confused me without making me feel ashamed for my lack of understanding. After working with Raghu I understood the topics taught in class and was able to internalize new concepts using a fraction of the time and effort I had needed before. Not only did he demonstrate a genuine mastery of the topic, but also unwavering patience and diligence in its pedagogy. I felt a personal obligation to work harder in order to match the level of effort and involvement he offered. To me, Raghu is not only an invaluable resource in furthering my understanding of chemistry, but also one of the most kind and sincere people I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. I strongly recommend him to anyone who is struggling with the terrors of organic chemistry and thinks that they would benefit from a experienced, considerate, and attentive guide!

Raghu is one of the most diligent tutors I have ever had a chance to work with. He has an individual approach to his students to the point that he asks you for your textbook and the chapters and explains the material within the scope of what you covered in lectures. He did what my professor failed in his efforts to teach us. Also, very reasonable price for the commitment he offers. Highly recommend Raghu for those who value their time and tutoring investment.
Alice S. from New York, NY
Raghu explained a week and a half of Ivy League organic chemistry comprehensively and cohesively in three hours! Amazing! He makes sure you understand and can demonstrate understanding of concepts before moving on, and writes notes (as long as you provide the paper and pencil) along the way for you to keep! So, so helpful. He also was able to come to campus/is able to come to you. A godsend in terms of gaining understanding! Thank you, Raghu!
Carlemi D. from New York, NY
I'm extremely eager to say how happy I am when I walk into class now. Raghu did not just give me a tutoring lesson but he gave me confidence to continue and strive in my organic chemistry course! My first exam grade was a disaster and that's when I realized I needed to get help. Only with one tutoring session Raghu help me understand the chapter. On my second exam I received second highest grade in my class out of 52 students. I literally cried of joy (and I don't cry)!! Not only is the man great at explaining and teaching, he is flexible!!!! Especially for someone like me who has 12 hr shifts and has class on her days off. Which is highly appreciated from my part!! Thank you Raghu for up lifting my grade and my spirit!! I will see you soon!
