About Julie


Bio

I have several years of college-level teaching experience and over 25 years tutoring experience in Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. My success stories include several students being admitted to Pharmacy School, Medical School, Nursing Programs and one into a very competitive Physician's Assistant's program.

My students have ranged in age from 10 to 60+, I am talented at finding the "disconnect" and helping the student to conquer it so they can succeed! I enjoy using a variety of examples...

I have several years of college-level teaching experience and over 25 years tutoring experience in Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. My success stories include several students being admitted to Pharmacy School, Medical School, Nursing Programs and one into a very competitive Physician's Assistant's program.

My students have ranged in age from 10 to 60+, I am talented at finding the "disconnect" and helping the student to conquer it so they can succeed! I enjoy using a variety of examples and analogies to make the subject matter more clear, and like to explain *why* something is the way it is, not just "do it that way, because that's the way it's done". Understanding the reason behind the steps in problem-solving can carry through several courses!

I tutor exclusively online, as it is more convenient for all parties. If you have never tried online tutoring I would be happy to show you how it works. I can also work with small groups of students all from the same class and can offer a discounted rate per student to make the help more affordable. It is best not to wait until the last minute, but if you have, and you need a good "cram session", I can help you!

Also, if you have a question between regular scheduled sessions, I am happy to answer short questions by phone, text, or e-mail.

The courses I taught included the first 2 years of college chemistry, General and Organic. Additionally, I have tutored hundreds of students of various ages and backgrounds from high school to college chemistry, including AP, IB, and Regents Chemistry. I can also help you with your PCAT, MCAT or DAT Chemistry review.

Best Chemistry Tutor

Julie S. is the best tutor that I have ever worked with. Being a student at a university that is known to have some of the most challenging chemistry courses, Julie helped me ace general and organic chemistry with flying colors. She explains everything really well and makes complex topics easy to understand and master. I am forever grateful to have found Julie on Wyzant's platform because she is absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone who is looking for help with chemistry classes. Thank you so much for everything, Julie!! :)

Thank you so much, Sindhura - I greatly enjoyed working with you, and I will really miss you! I'm glad I could be of help to you on your Chemistry journey, keep in touch!

Life saving tutor

Julie helped me pass my accelerated chemistry class and really taught me the material. She knows her stuff! Her style is beyond that of a normal tutor and more like a real teacher. She is super helpful

Exceptional Chemistry Tutor

Julie did an excellent job helping my high school sophomore prepare for his Honors Chemistry test. She’s not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also goes above and beyond to make sure her students truly understand the material. She was able to identify not just what my son thought he was struggling with, but also uncover deeper gaps in his understanding and address them effectively. Her thoughtful and thorough approach made a huge difference. Highly recommend!

Easy going and Knowledgable

Julie really helped me cram for a final I had and was able to pack in almost a semesters worth of information into 5 appointments. By the end of our sessions I felt a lot more confident in what I had learned and I felt like I understood the reasons behind why we do things in Organic Chemistry rather than just memorizing it.

Thorough and Helpful Tutor!

Julie was instrumental in helping my son maintain his Chemistry grade through finals which was the goal. Julie was extremely accommodating to my son's finals schedule - a testament to her commitment to help my son. They had a lot of material to cover in a very short period of time. My son felt that Julie was very thorough and progressed at the necessary pace. We are grateful to Julie and recommend her to everyone. Brandon, Prep lessons for Chemistry final

Amazing Tutor!

Amazing tutor! Personable, brilliant in the subject, and dependable! She has made my son so confident and we are forever grateful! Julie is quick to respond and takes all the time needed to ensure her student fully grasps each concept.

Patient and teaches for maximum understanding

Julie takes her time and teaches in more depth than the school teacher - makes sure the student understands the material - sometimes the student is left with gaps in understanding from class and Julie is able to broaden the understanding of the material so that things make sense so the math in the chemistry is easier to understand

Julie is amazing!

Julie is so dedicated to helping my son with Organic Chemistry. There is no question that without her he would really have struggled. She takes it as her mission to help the student succeed. A+++!!!

Very Helpful Tutor

Julie went over Chapter 1 of my General Chemistry textbook in detail with me. She explained everything I was unsure of and had analogies to help do that. She also recorded the session, so I can re-listen to it to reinforce what we went over.

Great tutor

Julie was a life saver. She helped my daughter to prepare for her chemistry test. Specifically they covered the (1) Bohr model of the atom, (2) Moving an electron from ground state to excited state, (3) and taking in / giving off energy in the form of a photon, light energy packet. I would highly recommend her; she was responsive, proactive, organized, and explained everything clearly!
