About Akop


Bio

As a student once myself, I understood the significance of external assistance, especially in science and mathematics. Tutoring students is a strong passion of mine, which can be reflected in my 12 years of experience helping students achieve their desired goal, especially in organic chemistry. Courses are not meant to be memorized, but rather understood.

My aim would be to adequately walk through a given problem and find a solution through logic, rather than memorizing each question. With...

As a student once myself, I understood the significance of external assistance, especially in science and mathematics. Tutoring students is a strong passion of mine, which can be reflected in my 12 years of experience helping students achieve their desired goal, especially in organic chemistry. Courses are not meant to be memorized, but rather understood.

My aim would be to adequately walk through a given problem and find a solution through logic, rather than memorizing each question. With my strong background in tutoring and research as a PhD chemist from Texas Christian University (TCU) I will provide both theoretical and practical knowledge for your success.

I have been studying, teaching and researching in the field of chemistry for over 15 years. I have mentored and conducted multiple review sessions for students. Because of my extensive laboratory experience, I allow the student the visualize a given problem, thus making them much more enjoyable and easier to solve.

I am happy to teach you the fundamentals of chemistry in a way that will be very enjoyable for you and you are not counting the minutes to stop studying. Chemistry takes time to learn, I will make sure you push through the barrier that makes chemistry a difficult subject, and reach a level where you are very comfortable with solving any problem that is presented to you. I am available to help anytime and will respond to your need promptly.

Knowledgeable and Professional Tutor

Dr. Akop has been a great tutor. He is extremely knowledgable about organic chemistry. He has helped me better understand the concepts that I was not quite picking up on in my class. His explanations about the subject are very understandable and clear, and he is very patient in explaining everything. I would highly recommend him!

Great Tutor!!

Akop helped me so much for my Organic Chem 1 Class. He helped me over series of sessions by explaining thoroughly and answering any questions I had! He showed me different ways to solve problems and was very patient with me!! I recommend him for tutoring !

Duwana, 5 lessons with Akop

Extremely helpful, easy to understand, and to the point!

After searching and trying out several Organic Chemistry tutors, I scheduled with Akop and could not have been more pleased. He simplified complex material that I needed to understand for my first exam in the course, while also remaining patient with me. Any question I had come up with during our session, he had a perfectly reasonable explanation that incorporated the specific O-chem rules that needed to be followed when completing each problem correctly. What my professor had failed to clarify in lecture, Akop clarified in session with ease and to the point. Highly recommend for anyone struggling with Organic Chemistry.

Incredible Ochem Tutor

Akop is an amazing ochem tutor -- his knowledge of the subject is encyclopedic, and he explains everything patiently and clearly. I particularly enjoy the brisk (but not excessively fast!) pace of the lessons and would highly recommend him for anyone seeking help in organic chemistry!

William, 4 lessons with Akop

Patient and Clear

Akop was super friendly, very clear, and taught the organic chemistry concepts in a way I could understand. He would take the time to make sure I understood the why and how. After only one lesson I understood more than I had in two weeks of my chemistry class. I would 100% recommend Akop to anyone needing help in organic chemistry!

Lauren, 15 lessons with Akop

Very knowledgeable tutor

Mr. Akop was very helpful and an excellent tutor. He was super patient and calm with his teaching. He made the teaching of Organic Chemistry such a breeze that it motivated me not to give up on things I didn’t I understand

Harout, 7 lessons with Akop

Very knowledgeable and great at explaining!

He has helped me so much understanding organic chemistry concepts and various mechanisms involved with all of the reactions. Super helpful!

Sameera, 5 lessons with Akop

Excellent tutor!

Akop is very knowledgeable, patient and to the point which my daughter appreciates a lot. I would definitely recommend Akop to anyone. He knows chemistry inside and out and was able to explain things in a way my daughter could understand. He is punctual about appointment times and easy to speak to about areas she was having difficulty in. If you're looking for a tutor, DO NOT look any further, he will bring the success you need. Thank you, Akop!
