I'm Jenna, and I am a chemist with a passion for helping students learn and even enjoy chemistry! I have an undergraduate degree in Chemistry (B.S.) from the University of Michigan and a Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of California, Berkeley. Organic chemistry was my favorite class when I was an undergraduate student and my love for chemistry, teaching, mentorship, and research drove my decision to pursue a Ph.D. in organic chemistry.
I have extensive experience as a graduate instructor for both undergraduate and graduate-level organic chemistry courses as well as leading study groups of 4-10 students for organic chemistry courses. I also have experience tutoring high school students in AP Chemistry.
I am very passionate about chemistry education and making challenging material understandable to all students. Learning chemistry, specifically organic chemistry, is similar to learning a new language and can be very challenging! My goal as a tutor is to teach you how to think through challenging problems step-by-step rather than teach you how to memorize information.
I am easy to reach and will respond quickly to any questions you might have! Feel free to contact me to schedule a lesson!
