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.
Gurjot S.

14 Chemistry lessons

My grades improved in Chem 1B and I was definitely more prepared for Chemistry 1C the following quarter. A few months later I transferred to UCSD and began Organic Chemistry. I struggled a lot with Organic Chemistry and in Organic Chemistry 1C realized I once again should get the help of a tutor to get a better understanding of the subject. When I went on WyzAnt to search for tutors in San Diego, my first search result showed Vanessa's P.'s account once again!
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.
