She even comes with her own bag of goodies [play dough, marshmallows, toothpicks, etc.] ready to bring alive those electrons, orbitals, neutrons, protons and the rest of the chemistry world's prized characters. I would highly recommend Sue - she is worth in her weight in Au [refresher- the chemical name for gold]! My daughter's first semester grade has greatly improved from the D minus average she had back in September with Sue's expert AP Chemistry tutoring.

Kenneth is an excellent tutor for AP chemistry. He is well qualified and is very prepared for each tutoring session. He is also punctual and returns messages quickly. My son really connects with Kenny and his grades in AP chemistry have improved to an A. With Kenny's help my son is confident that he can prepare for the AP chemistry exam. We highly recommend Kenny as a chemistry tutor.

Travis was an incredible AP Chemistry tutor! He ensured that I was well-prepared for the AP Chemistry test despite significant challenges in my AP Chemistry class. We essentially covered the last four units on our own! He was tough to make sure I was doing the work, while providing engaging and fun explanations of the content. Thank you for a great year!
