Encouraging, Effective, and Patient Educator and Scientist

I have taught physical science material to elementary and middle school students, chemistry and English to high school students (my teaching credential was signed by former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger himself), introductory chemistry, chemistry for engineers, and organic chemistry to all ages of college students, as well as advanced drug synthesis, advanced drug design, and QSAR & Molecular Modeling to medicinal chemistry and chemistry graduate students. With this repertoire of wide ranging experience, I believe that I can provide a unique, constructive, and successful opportunity to facilitate learning in any student.

Biology

I'm currently a researcher at the National Cancer Institute. I have been tutoring for a long time, starting as a undergraduate, through graduate school as a Teaching Assistant, and then as a Professor or Instructor at Xavier University of Louisiana, University of the Pacific, Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo, and San Joaquin Delta College. I have even been the head of San Joaquin Delta College's Math and Science Tutoring Center and helped train groups of tutors. As you can see from this list of experiences,... Read More

Chemistry

Physiology

With my PhD in 1990 from the University of Arizona in pharmaceutical sciences, I gained a thorough knowledge of pharmacy, of which physiology is a cornerstone. I am still learning physiology, since I am currently a researcher at the National Cancer Institute and new physiological targets keep being discovered all the time! I am sure I can help you reach your physiology study goals.

Organic Chemistry

I have explained difficult scientific concepts patiently, clearly, and encouragingly to students at all levels for 30 years. I obtained my PhD in 1990 from The University of Arizona in Pharmaceutical Sciences with a minor in Chemistry. Because of this training, I have a thorough knowledge of both pharmacy and organic chemistry and know the how and why of drug design and synthesis. I'm currently a researcher at the National Cancer Institute. I have been tutoring for a long time, starting as a undergraduate,... Read More

Pharmacology

With my PhD in 1990 from the University of Arizona in Pharmaceutical Sciences, I gained a thorough knowledge of pharmacy, of which pharmacology is a cornerstone. Additionally, I have taught medicinal chemistry courses which provide the drugs for the study of pharmacology. I am still learning pharmacology, since I am currently a researcher at the National Cancer Institute and new pharmacological targets keep being discovered all the time! I am sure I can help you reach your pharmacological study... Read More
