Hi, I'm Levi!

I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in chemistry from Wayne State University and then a Master's degree in chemistry from the University of Chicago. I have a PhD in Molecular Engineering from the University of Chicago. In my doctoral research I focused on organic and polymer synthesis.

Hi, I'm Levi!

I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in chemistry from Wayne State University and then a Master's degree in chemistry from the University of Chicago. I have a PhD in Molecular Engineering from the University of Chicago. In my doctoral research I focused on organic and polymer synthesis.

I've always enjoyed helping others learn, especially in science and math. I've always learned by having a deep conceptual understanding of the underlying principles, and then applying that knowledge to new information.

I've had the opportunity to teach high school science for a year before going back to graduate school, and I've also tutored high school and college students for dozens of hours while in graduate school.

I love helping students that would like assistance in their science/math classes. Feel free to contact me today -- I'd be happy provide a free consult.

I am currently a bioengineering PhD student, and an expert in cell biology/biochemistry.
Chemistry

Chemistry

I have a MSc in chemistry, and a further PhD in molecular engineering. I've tutored many students in the past several years, from Ivy League to community college. If you are struggling with that D and you'd like to pass the class, or you have a B and you'd like an A, I can help you attain that and do well in your chemistry class -- it is really possible! I've done research for several years in chemistry. Previously, I was a graduate teaching assistant in chemistry for a full year, teaching both discussion and labs. I can help you with all chemistry topics, from atomic structure to thermodynamics and everything in between -- feel free to reach out!
Organic Chemistry

Organic Chemistry

I focus on organic chemistry and organic synthesis, which is what I use on a day to day basis. I've tutored many students in the past several years, from Ivy League to community college. If you are struggling with that D and you'd like to pass the class, or you have a B and you'd like an A, I can help you attain that and do well in your organic chemistry class -- it is really possible! I've done research for several years in organic chemistry. Previously, I was a graduate teaching assistant in organic chemistry for a full year, teaching both discussion and labs. I can help you with all organic chemistry topics, from aldehyde chemistry to Zaitsev's rule and everything in between -- feel free to reach out!
Personal Statements

Personal Statements

I have extensive experience mentoring students and professionals on writing strong, compelling personal statements for academic programs, fellowships, and career opportunities. With a Ph.D. background and years of scientific writing, editing, and reviewing, I know how to help applicants clearly convey their strengths, goals, and unique stories. My approach is collaborative—I guide students in structuring their essays, sharpening their language, and ensuring their voice comes through authentically.

Great Organic Chem Tutor

Levi has a very strong understanding of the material and is able to explain it in a way that's understandable. He's also very patient and gives suggestions on different techniques and resources that will help you understand difficult concepts.

Great Tutor

Levi and I worked on some basics reaction mechanisms for my organic chemistry class at UChicago. He was extremely knowledgeable on the subject as he has been a TA for the same class. I went in understanding very little as pertains to reaction mechanisms and came out feeling much more confident for my Midterm! I would highly recommend Levi to anyone in need of an Orgo tutor!

Very satisfied with tutoring

My experiences with Levi have been very positive. He is very flexible in terms of scheduling and meeting locations, and is very knowledgeable on any topics I had questions on or struggled. Overall, very happy I was able to find him as a tutor.
