During my graduate career, I taught general chemistry lab, discussion sessions and graduate classes on organic chemistry. After graduate school, I became employed at a startup pharmaceutical company.

I received my degree of Chemistry with High Honors from the University of California, Berkeley. Afterward I attended MIT for graduate school. During my graduate career, I taught general chemistry lab, discussion sessions and graduate classes on organic chemistry. After graduate school, I became employed at a startup pharmaceutical company. With about 10 years of experience in chemistry, I know the subject matter well. Not only that, I know what kind of problems students typically encounter with the subject after having taught so many classes and graded so many tests. I will identify the weaknesses in a student's understanding of the subject and how to approach the chemistry tests.

Approved Subjects

Chemistry

Chemistry

I have students who achieved 4-5s on the AP exams as well as 780-800 on the SAT II. I have experience with the different curriculum of various high schools and colleges throughout bay area. My students have succeed and done well in chemistry classes. I am sure my methods of tutoring in chemistry works well and will continue to work well.
Organic Chemistry

Organic Chemistry

I have taught students regarding nomenclatures of organic compounds, the basics of E1/E2 and Sn1/Sn2. Of course, I have also taught various students in oxidation an reduction of various organic compound classes (e.g., alcohol, aldehyde, ketone, carboxylic acids, alkenes). I also understand various analytical techniques such as NMR and IR along with various purification methods, distillation and TLC. I also understand the bioorganic compounds and the corresponding reactions for peptides, nucleotides, and lipids. I believe I am more than competent to teach organic chemistry.
