Hello! I'm Nils Strand. I graduated from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor with a dual degree in Chemistry (with Honors) and Computer Science and a minor in Physics. I have a good deal of experience and knowledge with each of these subject areas, as well as math in the high school/early college level (I'm willing to tutor as far as uni- and multivariate calculus).

When it comes to chemistry, I can confidently teach college-level subjects, including organic, physical, inorganic, and analytical. I am also willing to help with any laboratory-related coursework as well as any topics making use of theory/programming skills. I am indeed currently a Ph.D student at Northwestern University studying theoretical chemistry.

I am also quite knowledgeable in many areas of Physics and computer science. I am an experienced programmer in languages such as C/C++, Java, Python, Mathematica, and Matlab.

My goals are not only to improve student grades, but also to get them more engaged with the topics I'm teaching. It is always my great pleasure to share my knowledge of all of these fields with young, bright students and I'm confident that their improvement will help reinforce my own skills. I like to think of these opportunities as a way for tutor (myself) and student to learn from each other.

I want to be as helpful as possible to any student. I am very responsive to messages I receive. Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson! I very much look forward to working with you!

I use calculus in my current research. I can confidently teach high school/early college topics including differential and integral calculus, both in the uni- and multivariate level. I also have a good deal of differential equation knowledge, particularly how to solve linear ordinary differential equations, both homogeneous and inhomogeneous.

Chemistry was one of my majors in college. I got thorough exposure to all areas of chemistry, including organic, inorganic, analytical, and physical, even computational work.
