Since 2005, Wyzant has provided a way for people to learn any subject in a way that works for them.

MC P.

4 Chemistry lessons

We wanted my daughter to enjoy learning chemistry and to think of her career in chemistry or chemistry-related area. In her first semester of chemistry class, she was doing well and she had confidence in her chemistry. But my daughter was having difficulties in her 2nd semester chemistry class. We could see that she was losing interest in chemistry and about to give it up. We wanted to find someone who can help her re-ignite her interest in chemistry.
Emma P.

14 Chemistry lessons

He helped me understand all of the material in my college class that ranged from the quantum mechanical model of the atom, organic chemistry, and then applied mathematical chemistry. Overall, for the person who did not get to complete HS chemistry and entered a chemistry class that expected me to have passed AP chemistry, I ended with an A in the class, (the highest grade available at my college), in no small part thanks to him.
Garry L.

3 Chemistry lessons

I highly recommend Robert as an Excel tutor. We finished the Excel topics I wanted to cover and then we moved on to chemistry. Again, all the things I said about Robert regarding Excel are true for chemistry (plus he has a PhD in chemistry and was in industry for years). We only had a short time for chemistry but I learned a lot and will be scheduling further training in the next couple weeks. Excellent tutor and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend him.
